  • Issues relating to promoting and advertising

    I have for the longest of time have not served ads on this site nor my community site, Nologam due to a couple of simple facts about advertising and promoting.

    1. Advertisements get blocked. What is point in trying to serve ads on a website if all they are doing is being removed thanks to people that use Adblock. I will admit, I am a offender of this myself since I use Adblock myself, but if you want me to turn it off, you gotta need to give me a good reason.
      1. Sidenote: Putting up a message to turn off AdBlock will not work. I would normally leave the site because of a message like that. Again, it’s depending on how the advert is being served.
    2.  “Sell Out”. “Promoting too much”.
      I don’t like to ‘shove’ the website down people’s throat. And maybe that statement is half the problem I have. I am trying to be fair by not advertising but at the same time, if I don’t promote the site, then I wont get the return that I am looking for.

    And that is where this blog post is really boiling down to.

    How do I promote my website, without ‘shoving’ down users’ throat nor having advertising on the website??

    How to marketers do it these days? I am just one guy trying to promote a gaming community that has a game servers, a appealing forum and even a voice server.

    It does seem to be really difficult.

    I stumbled across this brilliant mashup between Finn Balor (WWE Wrestler) and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air‘s theme. Have a listen, it’s a good one.

     

  • Simple Mince & Mash Potatoes

    So this evening, I made a kick-ass Mince and potatoes, here is the recipe.

    • 100g mince (Any type you like)
    • A half-cup – A full cup of frozen chopped veg (You can get a bag of this in Tesco)
    • 1 Small Onion.
    • Teaspoon of Marmalade
    • A pinch of Gravy
    • Handful of Frozen Mash Potatoes (From Tesco also)
    1. Fry onions in a pot with a small shot of oil.
    2. Add mince and stir fry.
    3. Add the veg. At this time, put on the frozen potatoes in another pot.
    4. Add a pinch of gravy granules and a teaspoon of Marmalade.
    5. Stir everything constantly for a few minutes until the potatoes have warmed up and binded together.
    6. Serve and enjoy 🙂

     

  • My New World of Warcraft Character

    So a couple of days ago, I decided to take a break from Final Fantasy XIV and decided to resubscribe to World of Warcraft!

    I wanted to sit down properly and start a new character and I decided to roll a new Marksmanship Hunter on Outland EU.

    You can find my new character called “Notkeeping”, which is kinda ironic because I wasn’t sure if I was going to keep this character, but I did.

    If you wish to add me as a friend on Battle.net or even if you wish to play, add Crakila#2745

    You can find my character right here: eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/outland/Notkeeping/advanced

  • Happy New Year!

    I just want to wish everyone a very Happy New Year from myself and my family. It has been a roller-coaster of a year, so let’s hope that this year will be a lot better. 🙂

    In a somewhat growing attempt to increase my vocabulary and sentence structure, I am going to at the very least try to write a post every day in 2016.

    The aim is to post at least once a day.
    If I am going anywhere that I won’t be at the computer, I must write posts before going and if I do miss a day, the amount of posts that I would have to do the next day increases.

    Simples.
