Today I’m going to show you how to set-up Wordpress on your hosting plan.
1st of all most hosting plans automatic set-up but sometimes it is for an out of date wordpress. I recommend you set it up yourself, this also will help you get familiar with the files and database, which will be very important for tweaking your site.
This post will demonstrate in detail the process of the WordPress’s famous 5-minute installation. Read more…
I just wanted to throw out some sites I use when I need free music:
www.freesound.org – you need to register, but has a bunch of good sound effects.
free-loops.com – no need to register, and good music to use, and explains Creative Commons
And last but not least if you are willing to wait for a response, many audio creators will let you use their music at NewGrounds.
Ok, not quite a big list yet.
If I need this list for myself, than arcade owners probably would like to use it as well. With Alexa rankings.
These are sites that trade by using Plugs (direct links to games on your site).
- Melt Games – 3,218
- **Stumpy Games – 15,091
- Hype Games – 15,346
- **Arcade Lady – 25,840
- Twizl – 43,158
- **Blitz Gamer – 48,883
- Game Hopper.net – 49,639
- Games Plz – 59,233 (not many game plug choices)
- Arcade Reign – 60,577
- Game Prison – 63,168
- Play 4 All.net – 64,631
- Flash Gord – 73,414 Read more…
First let me say a few words about Arcade Scripts, not a fan.
Have you ever noticed that so many arcades basically look the same? They are all made from generic arcade scripts. With their top members, most popular games, advertising galore, and so much crap going on.
But I can’t be completely negative. They do get a lot of viewers quick with all their link exchanges, and if we are going to make an arcade we need to play nice with all other arcades. Read more…
So you have got your domain name and are now ready to think about hosting?
If you purchased your domain at godaddy.com you are now -$7.14
Now godaddy and most places you buy a domain offer free hosting. There is always a catch, they will advertise the hell out of the banner spot. Do you really want to advertise for godaddy on your site? Hopefully, once you get your arcade going the cheap $10 it costs to host your site monthly will be nothing compared to the amount of adsense revenue you are making. Also when you put up your own ads you get to choose the location, and thus can take the users focus back to your domain name on top and not go daddy. Read more…
