Promotion?

[Emily]

So i was thinking that we need to get the word out about our lovely Xboxic. The digg article was a start, and it made me wonder if we should find other ways, instead of the nerds on digg :)

So give me ideas for banners for promotion. You know, slogans and stuff to put on them. For use on Myspace, LiveJournal, or anywhere you can think. Sort of like my icon? Lol :D

Let the creative genius flow.

That's a great idea. I started mentioning xboxic to my dudes at GameCrazy =D.

[Curry]

Sort of like my icon? Lol :D
That icon rocks :+

We're already doing great btw, but any effort you can make to let us do even better will be more than welcome :*

I suggest BEBO.

I know the site is doing wonderful, i just think it could get bigger with some promotion of sorts. :)

And i'm glad you like my icon O+

Lol does that stand for something i don't understand? :X

Well, curry talks to microsoft all the time (no offence ;) ),

let him ask them to handle promotion :)

[Chris]

I don't think microsoft will promote this site too much, unless there's a paid commenter. :D

Actually I did ask them to add us to the community sites section on Xbox.com :P Haven't seen it happen though :(

[E2K]

the best promotion would be if you had a real scoop like:

"exclusive! first gameplay footage of halo 3!"

Then all major sites would link to this one, and it'd get alot of attention.
But is could be very difficult to get such media.

Maybe! We can fake some screens, and you make me post it, after a week, when they discover it is fake, then you can blame it on me O-)

You will have the attention then, plus it would not damage your site because everybody will think that it was my action alone, and not to get publicity.

Good idea or what? ;)

[Curry]

We have real scoops regularly, that's how we got where we are now ;)

You might be surprised, but we're doing near to a million pageviews per month on the frontpage already after 4 months. In comparison, Kotaku does about 2.25 million.
