As you can see, BestTextGames does work!Why should I add my game?BestTextGames is proven to work. Having your game's profile on BestTextGames.com, will help it spread like wildfire!
Each game gets it's own individual profile page, with your game's banner, description, and voting statistics. From this page, visitors can vote for your game, or visit your game. They can also recommend your game through various different social networking/news/bookmarking sites like facebook, digg, stumbleupon, del.icio.us, myspace, google +1, twitter, etc...and more to come.
Each profile also features a comments system where visitors can post their comments or feedback on your game. Don't worry about moderation, I've got that handled
As you can see, your game's profile will be packed with tons of ways to get your game out there, and there are plenty more to come!
Best Text Games also has a unique points system for game owners. Points can be spent on various promotional tools, and are quite easy to get. It's as simple as adding your game, and getting votes!
What are points good for?- Bid points to have your game advertised in the 468x60 ad spot on the top of every page at BestTextGames.com
- Bid points for the featured game of the week position, which will be located right under the top game on the home page (and possibly the top of every list besides the front page, haven't decided yet)
- Buy ad spots on other game's that have opted to sell their vote page ad spot. Price per day set by seller.
- Trade 10 points for 1 vote. This is a free 10% boost to your game's votes, which could go a long way in bumping your game to the top of the list for the day!
- Of course there will be plenty more ways to spend those points to come
Earning Points- Earn 100 Points for adding your game after it is approved
- Earn 50 Points for setting up our custom incentive script, which guarantees your players have to vote before receiving their reward.
- Earn 1 Point for each vote that each game you have added to the list gets
- Earn XX points by choosing to sell an ad spot on your game's voting landing page. You will have to turn this option on in your game's settings, so don't panic if this just isn't for you, its not mandatory. You will be able to set the price per day for the ad.
- Or Purchase points via PayPal. Pricing to be determined.
- There will be more ways to earn points in the future.
