Hi steve,
This was a really interesting post, nice and detailed.
I'm wondering how you marketed your gaming site? Did you do it through ads, visiting forums and telling them about your service?
I'm just starting to get the word out there on my site, but at the same time I don't want to seem like I am spamming. I'm visiting sites/forums and introducing myself, contributing and putting a link in my signatures, but not getting much response from that. I will say I've only put my details on a few sites, maybe 6 in total, but not sure how much is enough?
I have got a few people linking to my site (high traffic sites), but still not many people are getting involved.
Love to hear your thoughts
