How are some of the ways that you know to get your games popular? I only have about 800 place visits but I want more people to play my games.
(I will only listen to your answer if you have a game with over 1,000 visits in the past week)

Just invite friends round,or even post the game link in 'Look what i made'

Maybe improve your game more.
*Note dont state that you'll only update according to visits,tell them you'll update roughly every 1-2 weeks,it'll show that you care more about the game than the tix etc. Plus people will be excited about the next update and will visit again to see it.

NOTE: I don't have 1000 visits, but I'm working on a Vega sophisticated game...
Ok, I made a really crappy game once, made mostly of free models, I posted the link on Look What I Made, I played my game to see if anyone was there, and instantly 7 people at a time... I know its not much, but if you make a GOOD game...

Has t be well built, nicely scripted with GUIs and if you advertise it, you'd be famous before you know it.

1) Advertise a LOT (use all your money)
2) Invite some friends to get it on the games page (10 or so people is always good)
3) ???
4) Profit

It snowballs from there and you win. Also deceptively change the picture and title every hour or so for maximum visits.

Well thats a little Snobbish.
Anyway i think it's because all your places that actually have something have decals.

People will assume there's no real game behind it all.
So actually use the in-game picture and not decals.

Invte atleast 5 of your friends to play your game in a party, then your game will be on one of the game pages, searchers will look and see it, and voila, your game has more players, and if possible, make a vip so people will buy it, and want to use it. Also, update it a lot if it is an RPG because people will have a reason to play it, AGAIN.

If your playing your game most likely more people will come, just double-check your game to make sure there are no mistakes, glitches, easter eggs, or loose parts.

If you ad, make sure you ad for 9000+ tix.
The ad has to look nice too.

Don't run an ad with less than 1K tickets, no one will ever come.
