Dear Gameops.com:

I would like to post my act’s information for possible bookings. Thanks.

In 2008 Gameops.com rebuilt our site to match the needs of our readers with the new power of current internet technology. One of the last pieces of the site is our Act and Vendor Listings. For years we have hosted the industries best directory of acts and vendors, our redesigned site has retained the best list of acts and vendors and we are now relaunching our Premium Listings (formerly called “Yellow Page” listings).

Our directory of acts and vendors has nearly 350 entries, including the top acts, suppliers, costumers, and vendors in the business. It is a who’s who of the game operations and entertainment world. This powerful list is where many industry professionals start their search for new tools, services and entertainment.

In addition to this comprehensive and searchable database of acts and vendors, Gameops.com now has relaunched our Premium Listings. These listings include a special icon noting more information is available and a dynamic expanding content window. You can now stand out among your peers and promote your business or act directly to the niche game operations industry. This Premium Listing is available for acts and vendors for $120 per year.

Here is how it works:

At the top of every page Gameops.com readers can find our Act & Vendors tab, which guides them to our searchable database of Acts and Vendors.

This section has a search field, and allows customers to find you by Acts/Vendors, by sport served, offering type, and allows customers to limit their search to Premium Listings by Acts and Vendors who have additional information available.

As an example, we searched for the entertainment act “The King of Sports” with a search for “king”. We find 4 Standard listings with “king” in the name, along with their phone numbers. In this example, The King of Sports has a Premium Listing, which stands out with the Vendor name, a company tag line, phone number and the expandable tab to see the full listing.

Clicking on the Show Details button dynamically expands to a full listing for your act or vendor.

These Premium Listings include your name, tag line, full description, photos, video links, a testimonial space, your business address, phone, web site link, video link and email link. It also includes a “permalink” allowing customers to bookmark or share your link with coworkers. It’s your own mini-web site and your chance to impress customers who are actively searching for acts and vendors who service game operations and entertainment professionals.

As we did for seven years before our redesign, we price these listings aggressively. For just $10 a month you can keep your act or business in front of the game operations community. As an act, the decision to invest just $120 to in front of our targeted audience is an easy one. Just one additional booking or lead can pay for itself many times over.

Our Premium Listings have been a powerful tool for many acts, agents and businesses, including the Covert Operations entertainment agency:

“I just wanted to let you know that I’ve received more inquiries from my act listings with Gameops.com than I have from all of my other web marketing combined. I’m not a big fan of internet advertising, because most sites are just littered with competitive advertisers and they do not target buyers very well. However, Gameops.com has proven to be an effective marketing tool for my company… I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for providing such a valuable and worthwhile service.” – Augustine Covert
