Hello, just wanted to share my story how I started my arcade website and where is it now.
I started my site back in 2007, not knowing anything about internet marketing, arcade games and SEO. I started reading everything I could find on the topic and discovered that the best way to make money online is that I have lots of traffic and for free. I entered the world of search engine optimization, and started optimizing my website for "addicting games" niche. However, the niche was huge, lot of major players were on the first page of G, never to be taken down. So I started looking for more niches and discovered the "dirt bike games" niche, which had very few sites shooting for that game niche, and also very large search volume. So I started exchanging links and building them aiming for that niche. It took me about 3 months to get to the first page of G. The traffic started pouring and the money was decent.
Then I started to build links and write relevant content on the subjects of other keywords also appearing on my site (such as free shooting games,
car racing games,
monster truck games,
bike racing games, and that worked too. Now, I will not give you the secret how am I doing now, but I have a great strategy that will increase traffic even more. If you're interested, drop me a PM, and I will be happy to answer
Hop someone finds my story inspiring in the times when thing are not working very well
