Search Engine Marketing (SEM) Opportunities for destructoid.com

Queries that provide opportunities for this site to advertise through Search Engine Marketing (SEM) to get more traffic. They are popular queries that are relevant to the site, and have low competition in search engine marketing. Learn More Many sites are actively advertising in search engines for the most valuable search queries. This high level of competition tends to result in high advertising costs, which makes it difficult to find attractive advertising opportunities. These opportunities may still exist, however, by looking at the "long tail". The long tail contains search queries with lower Query Popularity, but such queries also tend to have lower QCI. By advertising for many of these queries, sites may still be able to manage an effective search engine marketing campaign. Note that not all queries on the long tail may be very relevant to this site, but this list may contain a number of strong advertising candidates.

demix says: There isn't a single site on the net that tries as hard to drive traffic than Destructoid. From their fanboyistic and intentionally inaccurate reviews, to their hateful and aggressive promotions, the Destructoid staff have forsaken legitimate journalism for the sake of gaining attention. There isn't a single gaming site that I would put below Destructoid. Avoid at all costs.

pdot says: Ah, say what you wish about Destructoid but the site is simply one of the best. Open, tell it like it is kind of vibe you can't find anywhere else. They also have exclusive interviews, game reviews, previews and some really funny videos. Cool site!

This is a really funny video game site. They give away things and make awesome photoshops, and people are nice on the forums

I recommend
this site to a friend
This is the best gaming blog online. It is worth checking daily and covers news the way IGN and Gamespot can't.. from real gamers who love and hate the same things the rest of us do.
