Hey guys,
For those of you with popular games (10,000+ visits or so), when you were just starting out and no one knew who you are, how did you get people to come give your level a try? How did you make your first popular game popular?
Curious. |

| I ran a lot of ads, and had some other previously famous people come. Plus, I played for hours to give out special badges. |

I quit ROBLOX for about a month, and while I was gone, it got 35k plus views.

| Ok, so if you copy a popular place, how do you get people to visit it? |

You could always:
Invite friends, create adverts.
I usually hype it up in the forums for it to get publicity, - nothing wrong with that, and once many people like it, I usually advertise it.

There's no way I could get mine to be popularized.

@Shed
They go like in the front page
RIDE A LAVA SKATEBOARD INTO A FLOATING SWIMMING POOL
The thing has nothing to do with it, yet it looks okay but when you go in its TERRIBLE AND COPIED. |

| I found a game of a similar genre and played a lot there, then invited some of the people who I played with to come visit my game. |

I have no idea how my "✖ Science Lab Tycoon ✖" go to the front page nor do I know how people found that place. >.>
My first place, however, got popular through a group of wrestling fans. Me, I was not a fan of wrestling but my best friend, who invited me to ROBLOX, love wrestling. He had LOTS of visits in his time. I was inspire by him. So, I made a place about wrestling called XSW.
It get a few visits every so often because the schedule to have a match was Saturday or Sunday. Random people started to show up and stuff. |

| I got my game to the front page of BC games then ran ads. The finally had enough people and moved it all over to the regular Non BC games. It really helped, that's why I no longer have fame. |

| Few friends played it, and I kept on improving my places, then I ran some ads that mostly failed, but enough people faved it that it had a semi-constant stream of visitors, and one day it was on the front page. |
