Prize Site - Games?

    Hi, I was thinking about maybe starting up some kind of prize site that rewards its users with games for PC and consoles. It would be the classic click-on-ads type of site I guess.

    Do you think this would work? This will probably attract a lot of young people and I think they're pretty easy to get to join these kinds of sites since they don't have that much money. Also you could send out pretty cheap games (and newer games for a much higher price) since, at least when I was a kid, you were happy as long as you got a new game. Piracy doesn't exist the same way with consoles.

    What do you think? And where should I begin if this is a decent idea?

    Yeah, it could work well if done right. First research keywords and decide on a good domain name, then get a good design done for the website. If you take those first steps, the rest will be easier.

    Be prepared to take some losses until the site becomes popular.

    Wow, that sounds really nice. Maybe I should include wii points, xbox live thingys and WoW gamecards and such too?

    Do you think this will work if you only keep it national? I live in Sweden.

    Sounds like a great idea, but remember, all sites take a ton fo time and hard work. SO keep your head up if you don't start making money right away.
