Top 10 Ways to Promote Your Video Game Blog

Zeromage | May 28, 2008 | Blog | Misc 
This is a list of ten tips new video bloggers can use to promote their site. The list is based on the personal experience of the author and not meant to be a definitive list.
3.Gamegrep: Gamegrep is a social video game news site. The concept of the site is very similar to Digg, except it only accepts video game related articles. The standards for submitting articles are also much higher than Digg, so sometimes you’ll have to re-submit your article several times in order to get it approved. But the quality of the video game related content you will find on Gamegrep is much better than that of Digg. We’re not saying every article that you’ll find there is on par with a work of Tolkien, but overall they are much better than the video game articles that you’ll find on Digg on a daily basis. The other main difference is that the submitted articles must have been posted within the past two days, otherwise your submission will be denied outright. The tighter submission standards are well worth putting up with though, as Gamegrep currently sends us between 50 and 100 visitors a day, and that number is steadily growing. This site is one of our best sources of traffic outside of google searches.

    definatly nice to see this article because i think many of the same things that while the site isn't perfect it is one of the better sites out there especially for being as young as it is.

    Awesome news. It beats MySpace too.
    Surely if the Neoseeker Wiki-page got deleted, wouldn't blog's too?

    Heh, woot for Gamegrep. I honestly thought this place was unknown to the rest of the internet world compared to websites like IGN and Gamespy.

    Haha this article is the one that convinced me to submit that article about the 8 Overlooked Virtual Console Games here. Old-Wizard knows their stuff because after doing to the math, it increased my site traffic by a multiple of 40
