Default Arcade Webmaster **MUST READ THIS**

Dear Fellow webmaster.


You will NOT make more money if you have more site....You will make more money if you keep your site daily update and make sure your contents are fresh every day.


So stop making newsite that you cant update...



Thanks for your times

I disagree…
If you have a good selection/popular games, you can keep your arcade going. What you need is to drive traffic for people to know what you have.

Think about it (no insult here) the major people that go to an arcade are school age, they don’t care if you keep it fresh, all they want is the games they play…PERIOD.

And major percentage are not loyal to any site…

I will agreee that you concentrate on one site and work it hard....promte it.
Watch ya stats, trends and do as your users dictate.
Just like your popular or featured game, why show one that NO ONE has played?

I do not know the owner(s) of miniclip but how do we know they don't have other sites? I imagine that miniclip is a large business rather than one webmaster managing it like many of us here. But you do make a good point about updating content. As RickyG said, school kids make up the largest demographic of arcade users. I'll bet that miniclip is blocked at almost every school out there and schools are constantly blocking arcades so there's always somewhat of a market for new game sites.

Updating a site is important but SEO is even more important. I don't think there is anything wrong with having multiple sites. In fact there are some here who do very well with multiple sites. My site makes enough to buy a few fine cigars, however I have other types of websites making $$$ some of them very similar.

MY POINT ARE....ITS OKAY TO HAVE MANY SITES BUT CAN YOU KEEP UP WITH THE SITE? I KNOW MOST OF ARCADE WEBMASTER ARE GREEDY AND BUILD A SITE AND LET ITS GROW IT SELF AND WAITING FOR MAGICAL......MY FRIEND IS NOT HAPPEN LIKE THAT..YOU NEED TO PUT A LOT EFFORT TO BUILD A STABLE SITE.....when i mean stable your site atleast pr5 and make over $35 per day not like 1-$10 (in my opinion)

what a bunch of idiots...

Learnnewbie,

No need to start that. You offered your opinion and we also did. I own several arcade sites and when I "had" yahoo (ypn) I was making x,xxx from all of them combined monthly.

I have like 15 arcades but my primary focus is FadPlay.com - Free Online Games and New Releases - FadArcade.com - Free Game Downloads - New Game Daily

I'm doing just fine, thank you. And my sites are automated.

Well, I wouldn't call anyone here a bunch of idiots. Since some of them here make a good amount of money with several websites. I think you have something to learn. As far as my arcade is concerned I can give a shi* how much it makes. It is all for fun.
