Search Engine Marketing (SEM) Opportunities for n4g.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.

Comments: possibly the worst and most troll infested place on the Internet, it's just a shame that so many people still rely on the bile spewed there by the members. As the owner of a gaming news site it shames me that I'm forced to use this troll fest to promote news articles and other things.

Comments: Might be the worst gaming site ever. Users, community, moderators and the like are all jackals waiting to pounce. Buttons are not clearly labeled either, making it difficult to get around.

Comments: What was once great is now terrible. The site is slow, the people are unfriendly and unhelpful, the moderators and admins are worse, and the content is just a series of Top 10 Lists and angry rants from pre-pubescent teens.

Comments: What started as a great way to find news from smaller sites with good articles has turned into a place where you only find terrible articles with sensational headlines on the front page. Everything is this console vs. that console and top 10 this or that. The only decent articles and reviews that get attention are the ones from big sites that don't need to be on N4G in the first place!! The concept is a great one, but this site has lost its vision and it's purpose in my eyes. Someone should start a similar site that helps drives traffic to smaller gaming sites that could benefit from the exposure!!

Comments: I used to visit everyday, post news, accept news, and all of that. Now half of the buttons are broken and return with some sort of server error. When I try to approve stories, it redirects to a blank page with hyperlinks on it, and then gives a server error. I cannot submit news as you are required to approve other news first. I also got a nasty virus yesterday. Avast warned me about it, but I trusted N4G so ignored it. Then I spent the entire day fixing my PC. Avoid this one until it is cleaned up and has a less hateful audience.

badassgamer says: N4G.com used to be a great site, when it was first initiated, now it's nothing more than a flaming pit of fanboy warfare and biased users. This site also has a massive hate agenda towards upcoming/starting gaming blogs. Unless you submit news from Gamespot, IGN, Kotaku or other such big news networks, you're pretty much guaranteed to be reported and your article removed from the site. Shame really, it used to be a good source of gaming news, but when flamewars are the main course, I'd say you pass.
