I've been playing Overwatch and I'm going to review some stuff for classes. I'm also stuffing my face with watermelon.

@GalacticGoudvis:

i've been relegated to only the things my laptop can actually run. which isn't much.

@Taffy:

@Taffy: Yeah just joined last night, and thanks! Always found these types of sites fun to waste some time. I think the switch to mobile killed most of them though. Even gaia isn't wat it used to be.

@Taffy: Agreed, they just need to get it out there more. This site isn't on any of the toplists/reddit/pbbg websites

@Taffy: True, but also making sure people can find it when looking for a gaia alternative could be a huge population booster

@Taffy: Well the genre websites/games like this fall under is either an Avatar Community site or a PBBG (persistent browser based game).

So getting a decent Reddit presence would be a first. maybe market it on the gaiaonline subreddit since people seem to be looking for new sites there. Also hitting the PBBG websites toplist would help alot. Maybe some refer a friend functionality could also help.

A better tutorial for when you start could help player retention.

@Taffy: It's never as easy as it looks atleast, and marketing wise I was just naming things on the top of my head. I'm sure the admins have their own plan/timeline

@Taffy: True, but there are other ways to get to the goal audience. For example if you google for "best avatar community site" you get mostly old links. So writing an article comparing the current avatar sites (including Voltra of course) is going to put you to the top of that very easily. Espcially if you write it on a platform like Medium. Of course this is only one side of the coin. You will have to have admins ready for deal with the problems that arise with a rising population (especially from places like reddit)
