I'm actually asking how to make your own place famous! I've been working on mine and nobody comes and this makes me feeling a fail (on roblox). I can't use ads cause I don't have enough robux. Do you have any ideas/suggestions?
P.S: I know I am on the wrong section but this is the only one where most people go. |

Step 1. Add loads of free models Step 2. Make sure you copy ads. Step 3. Make it an obby or Tycoon (I find tycoon usually works best) Step 4. Claim you made everything Step 5. Make misleading title
Done. |

| What's the point anyways? YO5HIM4N came to my place before and I got quite a lot of visits from that, but I didn't get even CLOSE to front page. Now if you're doing it so you can get some money instead of having to pay money for R$, you're doing exactly what I'm doing. |

You can make your place famous by posting advertisements and talking about it to friends and on the forums.
The more players at one time, the more chance of people finding it.
Try to make an interesting game, that's unique and people would want to play.

| Advertising on the forums would be spam |

HOW YOU CAN GET A FAMOUS PLACE:
OPTION 1: Do it the right way.
- Read the ROBLOX Wikipedia for building and scripting.
- Practice different techniques for a few months and experiment in your place.
- If you get stuck while trying to learn how to forum, ask in the Scripting Helpers forum.(DON'T START HERE ATTEMPT BY YOURSELF FIRST!)
- Start with small games, make an obby or something when you are still learning.
- After a little more experience, you will start making stuff like tycoons
NOTICE: Obbies and tycoons are easy to make and never stay popular forever.
- Now, start looking forward to your first "soon to be famous" place.
- Important things for a long-lasting famous place: Needs to be original, have good scripting and building, be constantly updated.
- To get people to know about your place, start getting some of your friends to go there and favorite it. Ask your friends to hang out with you sometimes there and eventually more people will come.
- If the people that come like your place, ask them to favorite it. If they don't, ask them what can be improved.
- Free models are OK for a beginner, but after you get into it, you really need to limit your free models down to 2 or none.
- Lets talk about advertising for a sec. Advertising isn't something you want to do right away. First you want to make an awesome game, get tons of criticism, and make sure your place is really good.
---
Lets talk about the front page games.
Getting your game on the front page and getting it to be famous are completely different. If you didn't notice, only some of the games there stay after a day or two.
If your goal is to get 10k visits or just get on the front page, you need to lower your standards a lot.
Going back to one of the steps I said before, it is extremely important that you update your game as you find bugs and ways to improve it. As ROBLOX improves the scripting system, you need to improve your game.
---
OPTION 2: Do it the wrong way. (Requires Builders Club)
- This way can still work, but it isn't going to work as fast, it isn't going to last, and it isn't going to make you famous.
- This way is basically just saying how to get 100k visits over 8-12 months, and after that, nobody knows you.
- First step, use A LOT of free models. Make sure that you don't use the ones everybody knows about.
- Second, you may need a little skill to strategically arrange them and alter them slightly just to make sure they don't look THAT OBVIOUS.
- Delete the free models after you make them. If you plan on using them again, republish the altered ones, this will help it make a little bit better for you.
- Make a great thumbnail that you: stole from a game on the 5-8th page of games, found on google and slightly edited, or something you made. Make sure the thumbnail either makes your place looks 10x better than it is, or completely lies about the place's content.
- DO NOT ALLOW COMMENTS ON YOUR PLACE OTHERWISE PEOPLE WILL MAKE YOU LOOK BAD!
- Make fake VIP shirts. These will be how you will pay for your ads. Link to the VIP shirts in the desc and make up some fake stuff about what they do. Disable the comments in all the VIP shirts.
If you make one VIP shirt, make the price 75 ROBUX and 600 tickets. If you make two, make the first one 50 ROBUX and 600 tickets and the next one 80 ROBUX and 1000 tickets. As your place becomes more popular, you will lower or higher these places according to experience.
- Create some alternative accounts. Temporarily change the price of the VIPs to 1 ticket. With these, buy the VIP shirts a few times a day with the log in bonus until you have gotten 25+ buys on the smallest VIP. Make sure that the higher VIPs are bought less than the smaller ones.
- When logging in and out of these many accounts, you will get a human verification thing that will get very annoying.
- To start off, spam the latest hats with advertising your place. Try to be a little original with the lies you come up with.
- After enough people have came to your place and bought the VIP, you will be able to make copied ads about it. Spend up to 3k on these at the most unless you become extremely rich.
- Make messaging best friends only. Make all your real friends "best friends" and accept all friend requests.

I would suggest Option 1. |
