1: Buy the virtual host

You need to buy a virtual host space, before buying strongly recommended that you have a credit card and PayPal account.

I purchased a ixwebhosting virtual host, more stable, and speed can also, I ping in the domestic value of about 200ms,

Foreign countries to visit faster, most importantly, they provide a separate IP address, which is very important to build the site, independent IP address can prevent other sites drag.

I bought it with China Merchants Bank credit card, they will give you a phone call to verify the true identity of the credit card, do not panic, mainly to ask your credit card at the bottom of how many.

After you buy it, you will receive a message that tells you about the space. Domain names are generally free (first year).

2: Build WordPress

Log on to your admin panel on the ixwebhosting website. Admin Panel is very good, very easy to operate, find EasyApps collection icon, go in and you will see a lot of applications, find WordPress application for one-click installation. Install the default allows you to create a subdirectory (WordPress), but we can set up in the WordPress admin background of its WordPress address (URL) for your domain name.

3:wordpress Games Widget

Plug-ins are selected Myarcadeplugin, thousands of small game sites are using it, it allows you from the world's 10 major game publishers to automatically get the game. You can use the free version, but I use the fee version, because the free version of a lot of restrictions, if you want to get a decent game site or buy a fee version of it, the price is 30 euros. As for the settings and usage of this plugin I will not say more, you install after a look is very clear, very simple.

4:wordpress's Little Game theme

You must want your little game station to have a beautiful and full-featured interface, so choose a theme, Myarcadeplugin itself with a theme fungames, looks good, but not what I want to look like, so I spent 25 euros, bought a new theme. Purchase address for http://exells.com, there are a variety of topics, there is always a suitable for you. Note that you need to take a closer look at whether the theme supports social functions and other additional features, and the more features the better. Otherwise, you will not be able to achieve the effect you want to do is not good (refund is very troublesome)

5:wordpress Social Function Plugin

Social functions I use BuddyPress, full-featured, similar to LinkedIn, there are forums, there are user groups, user status information, users can become friends, can send messages and so on. So when buying a theme, see if the topic supports BuddyPress.

6:wordpress Security Plugin

In order to your site is not black, choose a security plug-in is necessary, of course, installed this plug-in is not to say, there must be no flaws, can only say that is relatively safe, but I think the hacker X will not be interested in your little game station, hehe. I use the decoupled WP security plug-in, you follow its instructions to strengthen your site, but pay attention not to blindly change, some need you to consider carefully, some will affect your existing theme functions.

Another plug-in is WordPress installed after the default with the plug-in Akismet, can prevent spam information.

There is also a plug-in is bp-registration-options, you can make the login more secure.

7:wordpress Performance Optimization Plug-in

After the completion of your site can be normal access, but is not a bit slow ah, because your site did not cache processing, you need to install WP Super CACHE, this plug-in simple usage, after the opening, I found that my site a lot faster. But when you change something on your site, you may need to remove the cache, which will remove the cache. However, publishing games and forums and other features do not need to delete the cache.

8: Small game website player Integration function Plugin

The use of Cubepoints Plug-ins can be implemented, attention also to install cubepoints BuddyPress integration, can achieve buddypress and cubepoints integration.

9: Website SEO

When your site completes these steps, it's great, but you need to do something to be able to spread it quickly.

1 Install Mygamelistcreator plug-in, this is the function of the myarcadeplugin inside, will generate a list of all games on the homepage of the website, this can help search engine crawl.

2 Install wordpress SEO plug-in, this can make your website more seo.

3 Install the Social Sharing button, this feature allows your player to share your game to facebook,tweeter etc, this you search, there are many such plug-ins.

4 website keyword choice, uses the Google Ad tool to analyze the small game related long tail word, do not choose the special hot word, also do not choose the special cold word. This will require you to use your own brains, attention once the site to determine the title and keywords do not change, otherwise it is easy to be reduced weight.

5 Submit your website to the major search engines, suggest to freewebsubmission.com on the submission, one can be submitted to n search engines.

10: Promotion

2 and other sites of the same type to establish friends chain.

3 Sponsor some good games. (This fee is paid, but it works well and can bring high quality users)
