Emily, I've not tried this so much on Facebook and Twitter. I do retweet people I know occasionally, and people do the same to me, so there's definitely some potential to build relationships there. And I'm sure that the forum like facebook communities will work in similar ways, although some of their use is dependent on how easy they make it to link out to other places. If anyone has tried this, do share your results with us. Thom Yes, contributing is important – and it's valuable long term.

Over the years I have joined forums but have not been one to regularly participate. I am rethinking that now. Just contributing, even a little bit can go a long way.

At first I thought that a simple landing page with gaming information and a bunch of ads on it would probably make a little cash for a small effort. Then I decided that the small amount of traffic probably wouldn't be worth the domain costs.   I read that using CPA offers with stuff that are to do with the console works pretty well, but I am yet to test this idea.

The Xbox profiles are a very underlooked source considering the amount of time and money people spend on gaming,

Personally I have forum accounts which have thousands of posts. On one I linked my youtube account to test this theory and gained a few hundred views in a week, which is a pretty good result considering the youtube account had no videos on it. I tested something similar by making a new youtube account and placing the channel within my Xbox live profile. After a few weeks of playing I had a few hundred views with little effort considering I was just playing my Xbox live as a hobby. I'd recommend that if you play any games over the internet to place links within your gaming profiles. This is a pretty overlooked idea, but does it actually gain you large amounts of traffic?
