Hi my names Mitch Miller and I'm aged 16,

I currently am in the initial planning stages of setting up my online games website called game4free.org, the whole idea is to introduce a more communial games website where member can enter competitions, obtain ranks and just have a whole lot of fun. I am rasing the initial £100 need to set up the website but I require a further investment of £100 for modding the website and marketing it.

Whoever is so grateful in helping me, by investing the money will recieve in return over 500 links on the website and as many promotions as I can set up for you the investor.

If you require any more information email me @ Millermitc@aol.com

Please help me or give advice

I am guessing that you are planning on revenue through ads?

If you are, the ad revenue sucks. I have 2 games site (one just bought yesterday) but I dont recommend buying them if you are in it just for the money. I have a bunch of friends that play at school, and that is the only reason that I have them.

I make about .05 every click.

Rob if you ever see this, I would like you to know that you i am sure go to school.

Go online and find those print 250 free biz cards. Get .com site on those, hand em out to friends and people you see that you may target.

EASY clicks.

Yeah i know the revenue is not that great as I have looked at all of that, its initially about obtaining users and then getting on to advertising later on, im doing it because I have spare time off college etc. Any other suggestions people ???

Why would someone invest money in a business for advertising space? Is advertising space the extra benefit AFTER getting 50% of the advertising profits?

I would be interested, but there needs to be a better niche. There are too many game sites already. I was at one time interested in this, but now I am going to buy a touch screen arcade game to put into a cafe. It's passive, inexpensive and offers a higher ROI.

So your telling me you value advertising space on your site at £100.00, that dosn't exist? What I really want to know is how you valued it?

Hi, I know the advertising space is not worth anything as the website is not even established yet, but what i didnt make clear is that eventually an investor would get a return of their money, but it would be until the website is established with a few hundred users on it. Sorry for not making anything like this clear.

I have another idea which is similar to scriptlance but for the building trade !

#Thanks for comments

Great idea.

Thanks. I was going to do posters, but I tested it and put up 10 around campus and they were all taken down within 1 class period.
