How to Create a Game Website for Free

1. Get a free Web host (see Resources). The Web host is where your game website resides on the Internet. The Web host will have built-in tools you can use to upload files and design and build your website. Many free Web hosts also offer tools to help promote your website.
2. Design your game website to be fun. Bright colors and easy-to-navigate menus are best. You don't want visitors to leave your website before they get to the fun. Create different game categories to make it easy for visitors to find what they're looking for. You don't want them to have to go through games in every category if all they want are puzzle games. Five or six general categories should do the trick, including card games, shooter games and logic games.

3. Acquire as many different games for your website as you can find. There are many websites on the Internet that offer free games you can embed with code into your web page (see Resources). If you want to include exclusive games on your website, post an advertisement on your website inviting developers to submit games.
4. Generate Web income by using a pay-per-click service such as Google AdSense. Google AdSense places content-related advertising on your website, and you can earn money when visitors click through the ads. The more visitors who come to your website the more clicks you're likely to get.
5. Promote your website by including a link to it whenever you send out emails. Promote the site on social networking pages like MySpace and Facebook. Offer to trade links with other websites to generate more traffic. Keep your site updated. Add new games regularly. This will keep visitors coming back.
