Hey there gang, trying to find the right forum for this general question.
I need some advice!
I currently own a website, Virtual Pet Site that has amazing potential & I need some suggestions / appraisals!
In the first 20 days of launching I have made $330.00 (33 $10.00 transactions) for users purchasing 'virtual points' via Paypal & snail mail. I have Received roughly $55.00+ in adsense the first 20 days as well & grew from 100 users to 700 users in 20 days with 140-150 users signing in daily.
75K Hits the first month of launching & 2600+ Unique visitors.
We do not have a pagerank yet nor is our Alexa rating worth mentioning.
What we have to offer:
4 Custom coded 'quests' in which the user can complete to receive IcePoints , stats for pets or rare items.
Shops feature which allows for purchasing from user shops, list of top 50 shops, & the shops in the many towns of the site.
Friends & messaging feature custom coded including a way to organize friends in groups & all messages are in a 'gmail' style which is quite convienent.
Forums which are extremely active with posts every 3-4 minutes at every time of the day, not an easy way to calculate total posts though.
Custom designed pets & maps costing around $2,500+ to complete thus far.
2 Custom flash games unique to IcePets which include the pets themselves in the games.
Multiple coded 'daily' features which can be anything from flash 'spin wheels' which give users items or points. Along with features such as 'random daily token' or 'pick the cube' to receive a prize.
Referral system with top prize of 500 referrals being an iPod touch. The referral system is coded so the referral must complete 3 tasks which the tasks are not given out to users so that way we can be sure the referrals are not spam.
Cash Shop which allows users to purchase vitrtual items for cash, done so in a way to make sure the virtual economy is not tampered but the incentive is strong.
'Hidden Avatar' system coded in a way that the user must perform various tasks in order to actually receive the avatar to use on our forums.
STATS:
Total Users 720
Users Online Today 109
Pets Adopted 1,040
Total Items 763
Total Avatars 32
2009 General Statistics
2010 General Statistics
2010 March General Stats
2010 General Search Stats
2010 Adsense March Stats 1
2010 Adsense March Stats 2
What suggestions do you have for increased SEO & recommendations for the front page, navigation ease of the site or features.
Any appraisal on the site as well?
Thanks!
Michael
