How to make money from online gaming sites



Is doing a year since I created my first online gaming sites and now want to first talk about making money with online gambling sites based on what I've learned.

For those who are completely unaware of this type of site, I'm talking about sites of flash games that play on a site without any download to your computer. Most of these games are simple, free, and of short duration.
One of the most positive about the niche of online gaming is that it is HUGE, with thousands of monthly searches, and many "sub-niche." For example, within the online games for action games, Barbie games, adventure games, car games, children games and driving games, to name a few of many examples.

While competition is also enough, my experience is that it's difficult to create online gaming sites with 200 to 1000 visits per day.
The higher only in relation to this niche is the small average amount per click on Adsense ads, and in my experience the values ​​are around € .05 to € .10 per click. Of course we are not limited to Adsense, but this is certainly the best way to get income from the first day, and with few visits, the online gaming sites.

While I believe there is more than one way to create online gaming sites, for this post, and as usual here on the blog, I will share only what I know from personal experience and I can recommend.


How to create online gaming sites

Certainly the size of the market for online games is one of the best reasons to get into this niche, and the ease with which one can create and update these sites for other factors.

For starters, online gambling sites can be created using the WordPress platform, with obvious benefits: it is a platform with which we are already familiar, is free, easy to use, is versatile and continues to be one of the CMS (content management system) better optimized for search engines.

Mochi Media, the "supplier" for games

An online game site would be nothing without their games, and here comes the Mochi Media. I have used the Mochi Media this the first day and I am very pleased. The Mochi Media is the largest supplier of flash games with over 29 000 games to choose from in various categories. In addition to providing the games, we can also make money directly with Mochi Media, whenever a game is played on our site, or whenever an ad is clicked on one of the games. In relation to payments, Mochi Media works with a check, Paypal or MoneyBookers.

The Mochi Media provides everything you need to publish games on our site: files, descriptions and screen shots of the game. There is however a WordPress plugin that facilitates the seamless integration of Mochi Media with our gaming site: The Pro MyArcadePlugin

MyArcadePlugin Pro

I imagine it will be possible to have gaming sites without using MyArcadePlugin Pro, but unless they do not value your time and work, now forget this possibility (not say I did not warn you). The MyArcadePlugin Pro installed like any other WordPress plugin, and also includes a WordPress theme (Fungames) which causes a few minutes you can configure and have an online gambling site to function, even without any technical knowledge.

Through MyArcadePlugin Pro could, for example, create an online game site with hundreds or even thousands of games in a few minutes. I say "might" because certainly post 1000 games at once may not be the best way to approach this business, and for this reason the MyArcadePlugin Pro allows games to be published in time intervals advocated by us. Thus, we can stipulate a period of time whatsoever, and, almost without ever having to visit our site, it is updated automatically with new games (posts). Of course for this publication that would automatically keep the descriptions of the games in English (descriptions can be changed even after the published posts), but I give this example just to get an idea of ​​how the plugin.

In short, the best way to use the Pro MyArcadePlugin will carry 100 or 200 games at one time to the site without publishing them. Then, and assuming that the game site is in Portuguese, to translate the games and instructions, after leaving the game automatically publish from time to time pre-defined.

The MyArcadePlugin Pro can go "get" games of all categories available at Mochi Media, or we can set only a few categories of games, gaming sites for more specific niche. In addition to the categories we can, as I understand the above, set the number of games that MyArcadePlugin "loads" at a time.

MyArcadePlugin The Pro still has a few more features, too many to enumerate in this post, making it the best and most complete plugin for WordPress sites for online gaming. The plugin has also been updated regularly, and on January 8, version 4.0 came out, which I have not had the opportunity to install, but seems to have a few more features highly desirable.

In relation to the WordPress theme that comes bundled with the plugin, Fungames, this is already prepared for Adsense, it is only necessary to insert the different Adsense code in the WordPress admin. With version 4.0 of the plugin is also possible to change the color scheme of the site, the background image, and soon, all of the WordPress admin, and without the need to go fiddling with files.

The MyArcadePlugin Pro costs just € 24.95 and can be installed on an unlimited number of sites. Then there are other issues beyond the WordPress Fungames available for sale, that of course, for those who already have several online gaming sites and want to take things more seriously.

As always, I'd like to know your views in relation to the niche of online gaming. Already knew? They already have sites like this?
