2019 vs 2018

Hey guys! We missed to post the stats about 2019 Vs 2019!
We was distracted by this month that is going very good!
So...Here they are!
The 2019 was very positive! More new users, more page views and more sessions!
What's the main reason? Probably the social networking and the good games!

As you can see Facebook is still the social #1 for our traffic, also because on indiexpo there are a lot of pc games and Facebook is used by "pc users".
YouTube helped us thanks to several big YouTubers that played several games uploaded during the 2019 on the website!

We are continuing to grow up and a lot of users visited the website typing directly " indiexpo.net" in the URL bar!

They know it and they like it! And we continue to improve it with new features, new games, new developers and new events also this year!

indiegames Rewind: The Best of 2017

Rewind 2017 video with the Best Indie Games of this year!

Also for the Game Developers is the Time of the Video Interviews !

Community : a social group of any size whose members share the same passions, hobbies, works and often have a common cultural and historical heritage.

It's nice to see how the interviews of the developers are showing and making a nice community (and not only on Twitter where the developers use #indiedev only to promote own games and ignore the others), where they report their experience, the followed indie games and authors and how they develop their games.

The interviews for a game developer are very important and in particular the video interviews. Now it's the time of the videos. It's not fortuity if Facebook is making moves to become 'video first'. Mark Zuckerberg says video will soon consume the lion's share of attention of its 1.7 billion users. And it's making aggressive moves to get people to make and view more video.

With a video you can tell fastly and easily infos about your games, passions and your favourite artists. So we're catching this opportunity realizing short videos with fast questions and fast answers.

The previous Summer we wrote posts (on this blog) about the Game Marketing and several developers contacted us. So now you can find their interviews here or on our Facebook Page.

We will continue to publish this kind of interviews and if you are a developer and want to join... contact us ! You will be added you in list ! :D But remember to share your free game or demo on indiexpo! ;)

See you soon !

New Features : hashtags, video preview, new charts and new statistics !

New Features !

- Too easy to "read" the feed rss of a game. Now you just put the link of the game page in your rss reader and it will works automatically !
- New chart about Most Downloaded (Last 30 Days)
- Added how many users follow a game
- New chart about the most followed games.
- Added new Statistics about your game
- In the game pages, now you can click on the left and make a search.
- Added a red label about the games that you can play online.
- Now you can add hashtags in the description or in the comments
- Added the preview of the youtube-videos when you put a link.

With your laptop you can use the very same tools as the people at the top of the Videogame Industry

Did you never hear say :" Oh ! It's easy for the Blizzard! They have all that they want to promote their games !" ... ?

In this time ... something rare is happening (and it might not last long) !

Today, right now, anyone with own laptop can use the very same tools as the people at the top of just about any industry, videogame included.

If you want to develop, you have the same developing tools available to you as the most successful writers in the world, like Unity, Ureal Engine, etc. and several of them are also free... !

And Youtube, always for free, shows you how to use them.

If you want to join a social network, well, the software that connects the titans of game industry is the very same software you can use.

They use Facebook to promote their creations... and you can do the same. Oh, yes, they can use more money than you to "boost post", but you can see like several videos on youtube or viral memes are made by very normal people and not by titans of industry.

Of course, we haven't democratized access to closed off circles, we haven't changed the inherent and unstated biases of those in traditional seats in power.

But we've definitely given you the tools.
