how do I make $$ with a free video games site?

[pickled]

I have one that has recently started doing very well traffic wise, but adsense just doesn't cut it on this site like it does on my others. since I don't know this industry very well, I figured I better ask, so -- where's the money at?

[moonshield]

what is the site, as in URL?

Note:
In the future, find an industry or topic you know and understand

[pickled]

thanks for the note, I never would have thought of that. the site is just flash games you can play online, I'd rather not drop the URL.

www.azoogleads.com has some good CPA offers like free smiley downloads, screensaver downloads, etc, many of which would appeal to visitors on a free games site. I think several of the members here use them on their game sites.

I guess other options would be CPM banners from companies like fastclick, burst, etc. Looking at other flash games sites, it looks like most people just load each page down with 3-4 CPM ads and then maybe throw in some adsense and CPA for good measure. Also, I've seen people use tell-a-friend programs from companies like opt-media.com or supertaf.com to generate extra income.

Good luck!

azoogleads is also not accepting new members right now, when i checked last week they were 2 weeks before they were accepting more sites.

[Jaffro]

yea i think they're fixing a few things with their site / database or something at the moment.

good to know about azoogle. I have loads of traffic and was wondering why they didn't seem to accept me.

any other tips for $$ with this site?

Include a section that has games that can be bought, "By popular demand" top-selling games from Amazon. You've fulfilled the promise of your business model with the freebies, expand to the $$$.

Good luck

Hope this helps

Yeah, sure... I applied a while ago, never got any answer. I tried loggin in with the id I used to sign up, and it says it is blocked or locked or something like that. I sent many emails asking what was wrong with my account, and no answer at all.

Your customer service really sucks.

gamesites dont tend to make good money due to the highbeandwidth usage, you need atleast 500 000-1 000 000 visitors a month in a game site to afford your server and make profit.
