Title: Games shop advertising
Post by: bit-keys on April 26, 2016, 05:18:03 PM
Hello there, I'm the owner of www.bit-keys.com (http://www.bit-keys.com). We sell games for Steam, Origin, Uplay, etc. and also giftcards, gtc, etc. We just had a big relunch, custom coded from the bottom.

We have some advantages some other shops don't have
  • Very big stock. 1200+ games, giftcards, game time cards, etc
  • Average delivery time below one minute for items in stock
  • Multilingual in english, german and russian
  • We are cheaper than Steam, Origin, etc. And also cheaper then shops, selling games as gifts
  • We are in business since 2013

But still we are selling slowly.

What I'm looking for:
  • Feedback about our store. In technical and design view
  • Tipps to enhance our store
  • People to help advertising
  • Paid SEO
  • Paid Advertising

I've invested several hundred hours into this shop for design and coding. I'd realy like to see it growing!

I'm going to give my opinion and feedback on this one , Design looks pretty good however when I click on a product I get this :

Another thing is the prices ,If we take the 50 Euro Steam gift card which should mean it's like 56$ , right ? however on Bitcoin price It says it's "0.1432BTC" which is 66$ according to preev.com rates .

You should also take in consideration that Steam are now accepting officially accepting Bitcoin (including case keys , skins and everything) so If you really want customers you will have to compete with them (which includes the summer sales) for what comes to the prices.

I will never compete with Steam sales... I'll try to compete with other 3rd party shops like mmoga or steambits. I'll try to get better pricing for giftcards in future, but I'll need better wholesalers.

But most of our products, nearly all games, have a very good pricing. Let's take a look on current games and evergreens.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Steam: $14.99
Steambit: $14.00
Bit-Keys: $12,53 https://www.bit-keys.com/de/details/counter-strike-global-offensive (https://www.bit-keys.com/de/details/counter-strike-global-offensive)

Fallout 4
Steam: $59.99
Steambit: $57.00
Bit-Keys: $32,60 https://www.bit-keys.com/de/details/fallout-4 (https://www.bit-keys.com/de/details/fallout-4)

The Division
Steam: $59.99
Steambit: not available
Bit-Keys: $46,15 https://www.bit-keys.com/de/details/tom-clancy-s-the-division (https://www.bit-keys.com/de/details/tom-clancy-s-the-division)

Dark Souls III
Steam: $59.99
Steambit: not available
Bit-Keys: $50,15 https://www.bit-keys.com/de/details/dark-souls-iii (https://www.bit-keys.com/de/details/dark-souls-iii)

So beside of giftcards, we have very good pricing

Could you tell me the product?

Fair enough. If you want to have advantage of other websites that It would be definitely a nice move to bring skins (CS:GO or Dota II) and case keys (CS:GO , TF2) to the shops .
The product is the Steam gift card that I'm speaking about .
