mdshare Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Re: Help needed! advertising can be really costly, if you have a limited budget eg $100 take 5 diff ad sites and spend $20 on each and see... And it's not about getting 1000s of users with ad campaigns, you need to get active and donating users. GAO is really great if you have a large fund for advertising, getting 300 signups within 5 minutes. But there is a price ticket on it... and not everyone gets so easy accepted there. easy $1000 spend/day. (If interested you can use me as referrer ([email protected])) cpmstar is also top notch, again difficult to get a account and min deposit is $1000 I suggest play around , test several out and see what the cpa is, in other words what it actually costs you per click and how much rev you have seen from those signups. I know ad sites where you will get easy 100s of signups but poor quality signups, Other ad sites will have like 10 signups but high quality (aka donators). I made some time ago a advertising breakdown http://criminalexistence.com/ceforums/i ... ic=23329.0 oh and... I don't want to spend my money and get about 10 users so i was wodering if any of you lot no a site which i can get alot of users. That's a wrong concept, impressions are as much important as signups. Getting your game known around the net, so ad banner impressions with no or a minimum of clicks is important also. md Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdshare Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Re: Help needed! That's a risk you have to calculate.... 1 min signups... - signups, but don't activate their account (if e-mail validation) - signups, that don't like the game playfield and never login again Other costs that you have to calculate in kinda - clickfraud - clicks on your ad banner but no signup - signups but forgotten the url, clicks ad banner on a diff site to get back to the game aka quicklink... avg lets say on $200-$300 you would see around 1000 signups... how many that actively play maybe 100 first week, 50 max afterwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XCU53S Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Re: Help needed! go to rpg game sites rpg forums some PTC sites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdshare Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Re: Help needed! PTC's is thrown away money users from ptc sites aren't interested in the sites advertised, they click to get a 1/10th of a cent or so... first game owner that can proof he gets signups through a PTC site, gratz PTC sites are only good for traffic generating, which you can get for free from auto surfers.

XCU53S Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Re: Help needed! but they help more than advertising i would think since in PTC's when you buy you get a certain amount of clicks and if you think about it 1000 clicks = $20 whereas from adds from adtoll amazon google youd be lucky to get that many views and you will gain members much slower and as i read your motive is to gain a quick burst of players and also you could try banner exchange with a site or pay them to add your banner thats would get your fast players. Also the word 'gangsta' i think to be a popular search in search engines: Results: 1 - 10 of about 33,900,000 (google) 1 - 10 of about 43,600,000 for gangsta (yahoo) 1-10 of 4,750,000 results (Msn Live Search) 1 - 10 of 28,100,000 (alltheweb) as you see if you play your cards right and add the keyword 'bgangsta' around your site e.g. in meta tags image descriptions link descriptions then this would help, then you can use a SE submitter like http://freewebsubmission.com/ and try to use some SEO programs to help you get into the first page of results, best way to do so is get alot of link backs and keep your content original posting in forums that use vBulletin would be best since they use a complex seo system which can get there site in google results pretty easily. hope that helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdshare Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Re: Help needed! guess you never advertised PTCs is pure traffic generating, doesn't get you signups at all ok one of my campaigns on adtoll Total Views: 3,533,596 Total Clicks: 1192 Cost of this ad campaign $20 I can easy post 100s of my ad campaigns some that even cost 20 cent and generated +100 clicks and 100k views. Be honest with yourself jaye1, you are a PTC owner you know that games don't get signups from PTC sites. PTC members aren't interested in sites they just want 1 cent. As said you can as well use a free autosurf program for traffic generating instead of paying on a PTC site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCU53S Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Re: Help needed! fair point i think it depends on the thing you are advertising and what audience it will appeal to rpg's would be best on a rpg relevant site i'd suggest voting sites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
