I'm consdering adding new aspects to the website in an effort to garner a larger audience. Rate the following ideas in terms of how interested you'd be in them and how likely they are to increase the amount you use the website. (0 being not interested; 10 being very interested):
Sim Leagues (OOTP [Baseball] or potentially other sports/programs)
Video Game Leagues (Sports leagues played out via online, gaming console (PS3/Xbox360) games between league members; either managed via the message board or a section of the website)
More Fantasy Games (Including those currently run through Yahoo! and brand new ones)
Fantasy Games Articles (Such as rankings, sleepers/busts, and other standard type assistance articles)
Humor Articles (Collections of crap from around the web [or the author's mind], meant to make you chuckle).
Other, non-Fantasy, Games (Such as card games, puzzle games or other simple games).
Improving the activity level and number of hits on the website is imperative in the coming year, do you have any other ideas or comments on the ideas above to help improve the website?
In the next calendar year I may begin advertising on new websites. To help me get a feel for where to advertise, which websites do you frequent?
Membership Levels
Depending on how successful the above endeavors are, I may have to charge for league membership and participation for the 2014-2015 season (the season beginning next January). If that happens, there will still be a set number of games you can play for free, while there'll be a few options for membership levels and payment amounts.
The membership levels will depend on whether or not I do away with the unofficial game distinction. If I don't, unofficial games will be free while the following membership levels would likely be offered:
Free: Up to four games (no more than one draft game, one Pickem game and one of Fantasy Golf or NASCAR)
Basic: $5 for up to six games (no more than two draft games and two Pickem games)
Advanced: $10 for up to 12 games (no more than three draft games)
Complete: $15 for every game offered
If the unofficial game destinction is dropped and all games are contested for championship points, bonus points would be used to discount the membership price.
Free: Up to seven games (no more than one draft game, one top Pickem game and one of Fantasy Game or NASCAR)
Basic: $5 for up to ten games (no more than two draft games and two Pickem games)
Advanced: $10 for up to 16 games (no more than three draft games)
Complete: $15 for every game offered
Ultimate: $20 for every game offered and a guaranteed second team in the draft games.
The prices and game totals might be different depending on any changes in the list of games we offer and where they're offered, especially if a new draft game is added. If bonus points are used to discount the membership prices, the rate would likely be along the lines of 10-15 BP = $1. If bonus points aren't used to discount prices and unofficial games remain a distinction, purchasing a membership would likely relate to free bonus points.
The money would contribute toward improving the website and the games on it. It would also ensure that trophies are able to be awarded and may lead to prizes or discounts for those qualifying and/or succeeding in the ASASFL.
Would you prefer to see the unofficial games distinction stay in the above scenario?
Which price level would you be most likely to choose (factor in your bonus point total from the most recent season to help get a feel for the actual price)?
