Why have online games become so popular?

2012-03-31T06:53:00.001-07:00

It is part of human nature to try to relax and enjoy yourself when you have the time. Indeed, many experts feel that playing games is the perfect way to unwind, and is huge beneficial in combating stress, promoting health and keeping your brain fit and active. However, these facts alone cannot solely explain the growing popularity of the free online game; so what can? Outlined below are the main reasons why online gaming has become increasingly popular in recent years.

Accessibility
The first rule of any online game is that it has to be accessible to the user. This not only means that the user can play it on their laptop, desktop PC or smartphone, but also that the game itself is easy to pick up and provides the user with an enjoyable experience from the outset. This challenge has been readily accepted by game developers, and the sheer variety of easily accessible free online games is astonishing.

Extensive Choice
Another key reason why free games are so popular is the sheer breadth of choice out there. There are puzzle-type games (such as Jungle Bubble), word-based puzzle games, sports simulations; games that test hand to eye co-ordination, games that test brainpower and traditional arcade games. This means that the modern gamer quite literally has more choice than ever before.

Affordability
Many top sites offer the chance to play online games completely free of charge, which of course broadens their appeal. Some of the best game companies, however, offer the chance for gamers to try and win a little cash from their skills by playing for money. The prices for playing can vary but many games cost as little as 10p, and offer a chance to win considerably more.

Playability
Another central component of any successful online game is that it has to be enjoyable, easy to pick up and suited for a beginner (but also difficult to master). The very best free online games come with an unerring degree of playability. These games reward a gamer’s efforts and go to great lengths to keep them interested and enthralled; however, they also offer a depth of game play that makes mastering them a truly rewarding effort.

Variety Of Opponents
Finally, another reason for the success of online games is the variety of opponents you can face. It may be enjoyable to begin by playing against friends, but soon you will find yourself pitted against opponents from all over the world, of varying abilities and ages. The sheer scale and variety of opponents you can face online means that every new game offers a fresh and unique challenge. With a wide variety of games to play online (ranging from free card games to sports simulations, puzzle games and word games), it’s easy to see why people like to test their physical and mental abilities by playing these types of games, especially in a world where more of us are spending increasing amounts of time online.

How to Build an Arcade Website for Beginners

2012-02-08T13:12:00.000-08:00

Overview

A fun project for any diehard online game fanatic is to build his own arcade website. Many individuals have started their own gaming websites with only a basic knowledge and understanding of the internet and website hosting. This type of project is also a very inexpensive one if you do your homework. Researching is going to be the task that will take you the longest in putting your website together, but in the end it will be well worth all the work to put up a successful gaming site that people enjoy using.

Step 1

Research and purchase a domain name for your website. Take some time and come up with a few different ideas you could possibly use for your domain name. A website's domain name is where the website "lives" and where it can be found on the Internet. There are a lot of companies online that will allow you to check the availability of your domain name to make sure someone else doesn't already have it.

Step 2

Search the Web for an affordable and reliable web hosting company and purchase a monthly hosting plan. Web hosting companies are companies that have servers that your website is put on in order to get it on the Internet. These companies charge you a monthly fee for occupying space on their server, and even have web building tools that can help you put together a great looking professional website.

Step 3

Build your website using the tools offered to you from your web host. These tools are great for individuals who may not have much experience, if any at all, in web design. They will help you to tailor make your website the way you want it to look and will give it a professional touch. It's important to keep in mind that you will need a separate page for each type of game you plan on putting on your website. This helps to make the website easier to use when visitors come to the site. This is key to making your website a success.

Step 4

Visit a few sites online that have games you can put on your site. Most of these sites offer free games that you can put up on your website for individuals to play. These sites have a wide variety of games in all different types of genres. Make sure you get a wide variety of games in order to cater to a wide range of gamers. There are tons of games from all genres that you can put on your own site. The genres include: action, sports, arcade, adventure, girl, puzzle, educational, card and much more.

Step 5

Copy the game's HTML code from the website. Game sites will typically have a screenshot of the game and underneath the shot there will be a few different options, one of them being "Copy HTML." Click this to get the code the game is written in to come up on the screen.

Step 6

Paste the HTML on your website. Make sure you paste the game code in the right genre page to help make sure everything is organized and user-friendly. Then, publish your website. If you are checking how a good game site looks and learn from it, then visit Games to Enjoy.

Starting your own gaming website

2011-03-24T23:47:00.000-07:00

Here is a little article I wrote for those looking for some tips to start their own arcade.

At this point, you are probably dreaming about all the money you could make with your gaming portal. It may not be as simple as it looks like. They are certain things that you absolutely need to know before getting to work. Without them, you will never be able to earn even a buck!

1) First of all, to start off any business, you need some money. You will not go pretty far if you are not willing to spend a couple of those precious green bills. You will need money for the followings:

- Rent a server to host your site (I use IWeb, which provides excellent hosting at a very low price : less than 3$ a month for 10 years!)
- Buy a domain name (10$/year)
- Buy an arcade script (starting at 20$) (I use AvArcade Pro)
- Advertise your site (Google AdWords, Yahoo Sponsored Ads, etc.)

Those are almost all mandatory if you want your site to be successful. Other fees may be necessary, such as hiring people to help you with your website design/logo or to code special or unique features for your site. However, if you have an excellent knowledge of HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP and MySQL, you certainly have a clear advantage over thousands of people.

Furthermore, if you really wanna be serious with your project, you will have to sponsor games. You can start doing this at www.flashgamelicense.com. This will require some investments, but it will always be the best way to promote your website and bring thousands of users to play on it, thus bringing you money (mainly through Google AdSense) and helping you grow your business.

2) Second of all, you need something that is even more precious than money. You need time to invest in your project. That applies to anyone looking for success in something. Running a popular arcade portal does not require only a few hours of work, after what you let it run by itself and start earning a nice income daily. It requires constant work, and only after incalculable hours of work will you see the money starting to pay off for all that hard work. Working on your website design, content, as well on marketing, advertising and SEO (Search Engine Optimization) are things that take time and that will be worth it in the long-term adventure.

3) Invaluable qualities that helps building a great gaming website are creativity, talent, curiosity, sense of business, engagement and motivation! Without those, it is gonna be quite difficult to achieve any kind of success.

This was not indented to provide a full guide on how to build your arcade website, but to inform you about the most important things that you should know before starting your gaming portal project. It is now time either to experiment by yourself or go and find other useful information around the net. Here are a few links to help you get started.

Making games not too difficult is important

2011-03-24T13:14:00.000-07:00

So for game makers, there one point that I’ve written about before but it seems many game developers, and sometimes even myself, miss out on. We like to make our games difficult and challenging because we think that way players will keep on coming back to them in order to beat them.

However, this is not usually the case. If a game is really challenging, a lot of the players will just give up. People like instant gratification more than ever now and if something is too hard, they will more likely give up rather than try again. Take for instance a game I sponsored in the past — Lightwing. It is an excellent plane shooter game and graphically on par with the Raiden X series, but it had one major flaw — people consider it way too hard. I tried to get the developer to implement mouse controls but he wouldn’t do it because he designed it to be that way. The game ended up doing OK but I think it was denied a chance at going super-viral because many people just got frustrated at the difficulty. As one player put it “I simply do not like games that are all about dying”. Now, the game is possible to beat but it is highly challenging. I believe if mouse controls had been implemented or the game made easier, people would have rated the game a lot higher.

Another testament to the popularity of easy games are sites like arcadeprehacks, which basically take all the challenge out of a game and let players win instantly. Now, you might think that no one would want to play such a game, but in reality, those sites are madly popular. Once again, people prefer instant gratification rather than having to work for something. So next time when designing a game, do not make it too challenging or hard or have difficulty levels were people can choose to make the game easy if they want.

Site-locks — when is it worth it to buy

2011-03-24T13:08:00.000-07:00

In the world of sponsorships there are generally two kinds, primary licenses(which you can distribute) and site-locks(which only work on your site). While primary licenses are useful on just about any arcade site, site-locks have very limited use and should only be purchased on certain types of sites.

Basically site-locks are only good for retaining traffic and have almost zero marketing or promotional value – which is what most sites need. Because of that reason, most sites(like 99% of sites) have very little use for them. The only sites that would have reason to buy a site-lock at any price are the big sites. If you run a small or medium sized arcade site(less than 300,000 page-views a day), then you should not buy site-locks, no matter the price because even if they are under $100, it is most likely not worth it. If you go the site-lock route, it only makes sense if all your games are site-locks since a site with some site-locks games and others not still gives traffic away to other sites and would make no sense and be a waste of money. This confines smaller sites in another way. Some really good games(like a lot of the stuff that armorgames.com puts out) are sponsored on an exclusive license or are made in-house so site-locks are not available for these games. Therefore, you will not be able to put these games on your site which could deny you a decent amount of traffic from SEO.

You might think that sites like Armorgames.com or Andkon.com are successful by doing only site-locks and got big that way, but that is also not the truth. Both Armor Games and Andkon were already huge before they started buying site-locks. Neither site has really grown at all because of buying site-lock licenses. Since site-locks have no promotional value, they actually do not bring in any new traffic. They just prevent people from clicking on logos within the game and leaving your site. This contributes only a small amount to the overall bounce rate for a site. Armor games grew because it got into the game early and sponsors on primary or exclusive licenses to attract new traffic. It was already an industry leader before it started buying site-locks. Andkon sprung up suddenly and grew huge because of a massive paid ad campaign a few years ago where almost every single Ad on a gaming site was for Andkon.com. There really isn’t any arcade that grew popular or big because of site-lock buys so it is not good way to initially gain popularity.

If your site is a huge site already, don’t buy site-locks as they are not a good investment. Instead spend the money on directory listings, primary licenses, and even site design. You will get a much better return on investment if you do so.

Avoiding Scam Website Sales

2011-02-14T23:27:00.000-08:00

There are many website auction places online today each selling hundreds or thousands of sites. Usually the owner of the site will post traffic figures or show graphics of revenue for the last month or two and post an asking price in the hopes that someone will buy it. However, some of these numbers have been artificially inflated for the last month or two to drive a higher asking price and others are outright fake. This article will help you get the facts and determine if a sale is legitimate or not or if you are just being scammed. It will mainly focus on arcade sites(as that is generally the niche of sites I work with and seen many shady sales for), but can be applied to other Niches as well.
The most popular online website auction site is Flippa, but unfortunately as I've seen, its also where the most scams take place. For many of the auctions I have seen, Flippa does nothing to monitor or scrutinize traffic numbers or revenue numbers that the owner puts up, and as a result, many I have seen in the arcade site realm can be easily determined as fake. Thus, the first step is never to buy or bid on a site at Flippa without doing lots of research first. The best thing you can do is go to a community like talkarcades(for arcade websites) and ask experienced members there what they think of a certain sale. Many of them will recognize scam seller on sight and prevent you from making a bad purchase. Secondly, Alexa traffic ranks are a good tool to determine if a potential sale is a scam. If a site's Alexa rank is above 500,000 and they are claiming to be making thousands of dollars(or even hundreds) per month, then they are probably lying. These are two easy checks you can do to protect yourself. Beyond these two steps, there are a number of more technical steps that I will explain below to protect yourself.

You must look closely at the screenshots of revenue(whether they be adsense or some other source) that they give. Fake stats will look much like real screenshots but they usually have at least 1 small flaw in them. There might be too much whitespace between 2 stats or a column may be aligned completely right. Sometimes you really have to look and ask other people if traffic and revenue stats are legitimate.
If monthly revenue stats look to be legitimate, then you should ask for a history of at least the past 6 months of stats and revenue. Ask specifically for traffic sources. If the seller bulks at this request, do not buy the site as he has probably just inflated his stats for the last month or two to get a high sale price. When you get the stats, looking closely at this for tell-tale signs of large amounts of traffic being bought. Sites with a large amount of non-organic(bought traffic) are simply not worth that much. Some signs of bought traffic include erratic fluctuations on a day-to-day basis for traffic and traffic suddenly peaking in the last month or two. You should also ask for what search engine keywords are major sources of traffic for the seller and how much each word gives.

Erratic fluctuations in day to day traffic is an easy sign that the traffic is not organic at all. Most larger sites don't have such fluctuations. The one exception is between weekdays and weekends where traffic might swing a legitimate 30-40% or perhaps more(if its one of those sites that focuses on school traffic). If you see erratic swings within a week and from week to week not following a more-or-less constant pattern, the seller is probably injecting and buying traffic on certain days to make the stats look better. If traffic has been somewhat steady but has suddenly increased several hundred percent in the last month or two, it is also a sign that the seller is fluffing up the traffic to get a higher sale. Do not buy these sites.

Search engine traffic is the best source for organic traffic and probably the most wanted type. If a site does not have much search engine traffic, its value decreases dramatically. If your seller refuses to give you this information, do not buy the site. When he gives you this information, double check it yourself on Google. If he claims that he is getting 1000 visitors a day from a certain keyword but you don't find him on the top page of results for that keyword, he is probably lying. If he tells you that he did have page 1 results for certain keywords a while ago but doesn't have them anymore but its only a matter of time before the site gets the keyword back, don't believe him. There is a good chance that his site got penalized or more likely Google just recognized his link-farming ways and discounted those links. Either way, the site will not be getting the keyword ranking back and therefore you should not waste the money. Be sure to research and check carefully that all his search engine traffic claims are valid.
