Webmasters Site Indexing

Cheat Codes Club is a fantastic way to significantly increase the traffic to your cheat codes website.

Getting Indexed

We are indexing all cheat codes site.
We will not index sites that contain material or links to material which is unlawful or deemed to be objectionable by our staff.

There are two ways we can index your site:

We can try spidering your site
Or you can prepare one page per system (Playstation 2, Xbox, PC, etc.) which includes a link to every cheat for that system. Eg. <a href="http://www.yoursite.com/game.html">gamename</a>
If it's a walkthrough, trainer or something specific, you can do something like "gamename ( walkthrough )" instead of just "gamename". Never do this is the page is just cheats, or you are unsure. Ie. Never put ( cheats ), cheats, or anything else after the game name for normal cheat pages or for pages that you're not sure about such as mixtures of cheats and hints etc. Doing so will most likely deteriorate your search position. If you're unsure about any of the details, just ask.

If your website is particularly inconsistent, ie. the pages are constructed by hand and there are many html errors, or we cannot tell whether you actually have cheats for a game or not, without visiting the cheat page, then you will need to use the second method. We only index pages where you actually have cheats, we will not index pages that simply say you have no cheats for the game.

Our search results are ordered by how well the search results match and are secondly ordered by the number of unique daily visitors we have received from your website since the last statistics reset. Being on the first page of the results as opposed to the 5th can significantly impact the number of visitors you receive from us and so having a lot of links is a very good idea.

Before requesting to be indexed you need to link to Cheat Codes Club.
At a minimum we require:

An affiliate link or similar on every page of your website. This should link to the Cheat Codes Club home page, see Simple Text Links below.
Direct search links on your cheat pages. Direct Search Links go on your cheat pages and point directly to the search results for that game, these usually go at the bottom directly under the cheats, see Direct Search Links below.

In addition, feel free to use any of the other forms of links.

Once you have the links, and optionally the pages of links for us to index, the next step is to send an email to indexing@cheatcodesclub.com. In this email you should include:

Website name
URL
Approximate Number of Codes on Website
Links and details about pages of all cheats by system for indexing option 2 (optional)
Your Contact Name
Your Email Address
Daily Visitors / Impressions / Uniques or any other statistics you are willing to provide us with (optional)

Once received, we will confirm acceptable of your site. Your site will then appear in the search results as soon as you are indexed, which we will endevour to do as soon as possible.
