Gametour.com started at the end of 1998 with a few guys doing reviews
here and there of games that we thought should be covered. We felt
that games should be reviewed form the perspective of the audience
the games is aimed at. We also wanted to level with the readers as
equals instead of looking down on them, as most critics do. Since
our induction, which was very modest, we have developed a system of
capturing original screenshots and video which has added more of a
professional look and a sense of humor to our reviews. We pride ourselves
on getting reviews up quickly, within a day or two of when we get
the game. People want to know about a game immediately, not a month
later when the magazine comes out. That is why we are quick and updating
our info 2 to 3 times a week.
Since our induction, we have doubled our hits every 90 days. We have
begun to advertise our site in various search engines and other web
sites. Currently, we are ranked highly on major search engines including,
Goto.com, Excite, Yahoo, Lycos as well as AOL Search. Our click thru
rate is 5% on targeted pages. We currently have about 1000 unique
visitors with about 2500 page views per day.
We cover Dreamcast, Playstation, Nintendo 64, Gameboy, Neo-Geo Pocket
Color, and Wonder Swan. Soon, we‘ll be covering PC, hardware and accessories.
We feature reviews for American games and consoles as well as Japanese
imports.
