What price comparison engines is ClickGamer registered into?

I've always assumed when I have something commercial I would try to get it on ClickGamer simply as I look there myself and it is my favorite site. But with a traffic rank of 80,291 compared to PocketGear 11,599 and Handango 2,311 it doesn't have alot of traffic to make the sales from.

And you really should put your full terms and conditions before your application process.

We don't pretend to have the same traffic as Handango , but we do have a loyal following as we care both about our game partners and customer support. You're right about terms - we'll put a summary on the sign up page ;-)

We're currently integrating into Froogle by the way.

Looking at our stats now Alexa says that for July we've jumped to 30,000. Anyway, I used to follow Alexa religiously until I read this article, so take anything with a pinch of salt .... http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/artic ... E_ID=33131

Whichever way you look at it, it's a tall order to get consistent high-volume traffic to any brand new site.

Thanks I'll keep taking that pinch of salt.

And it's not lost on me that as you have fewer titles your page views per choosen product will be higher. I presume you show downloads to the developer; page views can be very handy as PocketGear does. It lets you home your description and work out if your trying the emotional "Your life will be so much more fun" approach or the more geek style feature list.

I still think you won't win the battle for backend of choice off the developers own web site. Like I say you are my favorite retailer and while business and pleasure mix very well, business and sentimentality are a no go.
