ToddMitchell, July 25, 2020July 11, 2024 Last week’s discussion of community management with our friend Matt Hill spun off some great discussion around other promotional topics. Although it’s not the first time we’ve explored the optimal role of a website in your ongoing creative efforts, some time has passed and a lot has changed. In this episode we’ll look at the current benefits and challenges involved in running a game development-centric website, how to get going easily, how to expand on it, and how to make it competitive in search engine results.
