Hello !

I want to launch a professional Arcade Game website. Is it a good idea. I doesn't have much knowledge of that. Please give the information about the resources required for that website. How much does it cost all together per annum. Any guidelines to create such sites to earn a handsome money is appreciated. If possible refer the URL 's of some sites that could help me in this regard. Please help me.

Thanks in advance.

- What features do you want on your site? To name a few possibilities: only download, interactive playing, multi-player gaming, forum about the games?
- What's your goal for the number of visitors/members?
That might be useful information to guess about the needed capacity.

A side question: how do you want to make money out of it?

My sincere thanks for your reply.

Actually I have read about this Arcade games site through an article being published every Monday in "The New Indian Express" under the column "Money Spinners". I do regularly go through this article to learn something that could fetch my pocket money. Much details were not given about building the site, which I have asked you. Hope the requirement would be 'interactive playing'. Expect that I can make some money through referrals and ads after my site gets some traffic. Any ideas that would fetch me some pocket money (Online/Off-line) also will be appreciated.

In a recent article about up and coming websites that had a small mention of yoyogames.com. This a site with all kinds of games that have contributed by users.

Might be something to look at.
