I know this isn't exactly MP related, but this still has to do with making gold. I was wondering what are some ways to promote my gaia aquarium to make more gold with booty grab.

I guess everyone knows how hard it is to make gold when your tank isn't exactly the best, but I still feel like it deserves more attention. I buy my fish more for enjoyment as opposed to exploitation, but I still feel like I should be making some money back to get even more fish.

What are some ways to make an aquarium more popular?

I would suggest making threads in the Aquarium forum about grabbing your tank, or a "bump if I glow" thread.

You could also make a booty grab thread and invite people who have tanks similar to yours and bumping it constantly. Those persons who you invite may invite you to their threads, so more advertisement. <3

But those are only suggestions. >w<

Number one, which you have already done, is post it in your sig.

I noticed one guy used the planet item things to spell out the words "Tap Me" That worked because his taps vs his visits was A LOT higher.

I saw someone use the suns to highlight some key points so I did that myself.

I've been nattering on at length about this in my journal, so at the risk of tooting my own horn (toot toot), here are three of the entries I wrote about Aquarium marketing:

Helping Others To Help Yourself
Glow Threads
Expanding Your Market

(There's more, of course. I'm nothing if not long-winded.)

It is hard right now because a lot of people have been spending this holiday week away with their families and friends - and there are a lot of really good tanks right now. So there's a lot of competition for fewer players and it means it takes some hustling.

One thing that's working reasonably well is that I have a small co-op with a couple of friends where we do keep an eye on each others' tanks when we're around. It doesn't mean we catch every glow from every tank, but just having someone else around to give your glow thread a bump makes a huge difference.

By the way, one of the best ways I've found to make money off Aquarium fish is buy and sell them in the MP smile . Seriously, it's less work than pimping one's tank.

Hey, thanks everyone. "Networking" myself has never been my strong point, so I think I received some pretty good advice that I would have never come up with on my own. Now the only problem is getting out in the forums and doing it! D:

Thanks for the links to your entries as well purplewiz!
