The trick is not make another general gaming website, you should go in-depth of each game and write a review after testing the game or finishing it, your reviews must be unique, your videos must be taken by you, you can include your voice, and you should use proper grammar. if you wan't to make your first buck, it's a hard niche and require lot of work. so start moving, and yeah it's not all about SEO, it's how good you are, best of luck.
Ok, I should go deeper to get rid of the competition as low as I can , but can you show an example please because videos games topic is competitive
I believe Persistence is important but making it about something you love is debatable. If its about something you love then you won't feel like you're grinding it out when working on the site but that may not make you any money. Use the Google Adword keyword tool to get a list of related keywords for video games (https://adwords.google.com/o/KeywordTool) If you can niche down to something like "best video games for kids" and provide good information for your target audience it can go a long way but if you're looking at this from an SEO standpoint, you should read up on checking competition before choosing a set of keywords to go after. (http://www.nichepursuits.com/how-to-analyze-the-top-10-google-competition-for-your-keyword/) If you want to fill a void that is in an area that you're passionate about then I wouldn't worry about getting deep in to SEO. Just provide great information that people want and do it in a way that is unique to you (meaning the other 2,000,000 blogs aren't doing the same thing) and you will do fine. (easier said than done) When it comes to number of searches a term gets, it depends on how commercial that term is and how you plan to monetize it. If you can rank #1 for a term that gets 2,000 monthly searches and sell an item directly to visitors from your garage and make a good margin that could work great. If you rank #1 for a term that gets 40,000 monthly searches but is only an informational search where people aren't looking to buy anything then you could make even less on ads than selling a product for a lower volume term. Keep reading, keep listening, keep doing and you'll move forward. Remember persistence. Good Luck!
Blog your way out. Content is everything. It all depends on how good you are at blogging, as long as you are capable of consistently producing quality content which will be of great help to your users you will survive the test of time. You can achieve all this only if you choose the subject in which you have expertise.
Excellent post, I think you've covered everything here, it is virtually impossible to get a high ranked generic gaming website nowadays. But yes videos are almost certainly the future and will facilitate a unique twist which could lead to the website ranking well
In keyword research go dipper to find some long tail keywords in the same niche I would say. It should have at least 1000 exact mat searches and PPC over $1... Find competition in Google, analyze top ten sites, their backlinks, page rank, on-page optimization etc.
