    I must say you should probably start with Facebook, make FB apps of your games as well. Then proceed to other sites like YouTube, blogs, etc.

    Facebook is the best choice for this. YouTube also...make a few funny videos and upload them on YouTube with a link to your website. If you have sports-related games, you can make TOP 10 videos ("TOP 10 Lionel Messi Goals" or something like that) and link them to your sports category.

    Congrats for reaching 800 UV per day. Since its a gaming niche, you can have profiles on almost all social networking sites including Facebook, Twitter, Youtube - even Pinterest & Google plus to some extent.

    But as was mentioned above, FB & Youtube should drive the majority of traffic to your website. You can also add leading Social Bookmarking sites to the list.

    An old trick... try and contact other Youtube owners that have videos related to your niche with LOTS of views and then ask them to add your link in the description (if they have not got any of their own).

    You can pay them $10 for the link and if the video get lots of views, you'll get many people visiting your site.

    If money is an issue, think about Tumblr... start your own tumblr blog and follow other related people in your niche or who like your niche... you can get a ton of visitors that way...

    Hope it helps mate

  • For your video game site, I would try to promote it through Facebook ads, as long as money isn't too much of an issue. You can get a lot more unique views by just targeting certain game site followings, that way your CPC will be a lot lower! Or you could just make your game's own Facebook profile and start pushing your website visitors back to your Facebook page so that they can help you spread your reach even further!
