How Conduit Drives Traffic to Your Online Game Site
For gamers, the Internet is the greatest invention since pinball. Or poker. Or pool. In fact, soon after people started uploading virtual versions of these venerable pastimes – not to mention all those other, animation-rich online experiences you can choose today – online gaming went into high gear, becoming one of the fastest growing areas on the Web.
But with so many online games to choose from, how do you make sure that your gaming site will pull in the players? If increased site traffic is what you’re looking for, Conduit community toolbars are a discreet, yet devilishly powerful way to load the dice.
Win Their Attention – Every Way, Every Day
Gamers love being part of a group, and Conduit toolbars make it easy to create a cohesive community that bonds around the beauty of your game-based content. For example, if you publish a website that aggregates the best of the new fantasy games, Conduit allows you to offer site visitors a toolbar that feeds their obsession with dynamically updated and theme-specific newsfeeds, video and audio channels, games and applications.
Not only do Conduit toolbars enhance your subscribers’ browsing experience, they also keep them one click away from your site at all times, actively encouraging them to visit. Every user that downloads your toolbar transforms the top of his or her browser window into a continuously updated advertisement for the gaming fun your site offers. For example, if you run an online fantasy game, you can announce new quests and exciting features. If your specialty is humor games, you could poke your subscribers with an irresistible audio message broadcast over your dedicated radio station: “Zombie Baseball Now In Overtime!” Who could resist?
Conduit’s Viral Advantage
Conduit’s easy-to-use toolbar design engine makes it easy to create a tool bar chock full of the game-related goodies most likely to whet your players’ appetites. But Conduit also makes it easy to share individual toolbar features – turning your subscribers’ friends into additional gaming clients, for free.
Even better – as the publisher of a toolbar you automatically gain access to more than 38 million Conduit subscribers. It’s easy to reach this huge audience, because every Conduit toolbar feature is gadgetized, making it instantly available to every subscriber in the entire Conduit network. A simple click on the “Add This” button turns your site-specific gaming gadget into an independent marketing widget – a dynamic link that sits in the browser of potential customers, alerting them to all the alien life forms they can blast into smithereens if they just give your gaming site a whirl.
Conduit toolbar gadgets are designed for easy sharing by email, and via social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace. This makes it easy for news of your gaming site to go viral, attracting new toolbar subscribers, and – of course – increasing that all-important site traffic. And that’s a win-win situation.
