Indeed, WordPress is basically as simple as writing this forum message, you don't need to know more unless you are completely computer illiterate. News posts are done with WordPress.

And don't put to much time into the layout. The two clients + the website will screw over the layout anyway :-/

But I mean honestly there are so much ways to participate without coding knowledge, which however get much easier if you to act as an official representant of FAF. Advertize our community in other gaming communities. Try to get an article on a gaming website (or even magazine). Make interviews with high rated players. Or interview developers what's planned and what was achieved in the past. Create cool YouTube content like medicraze does. Or retweet other FAF related stuff like new casts.

There is so much potential out there.

Hello.

I saw the thread of discussion, read your messages and I want to say.

1. Before you create a plan for moving ahead, you should answer the question: why? What do you want in the end?
2. Based on the goals to choose a set of promotion tools.
3. Implementation and monitoring of results.

Based on what I read, I did not see the item number 1.

Guys, explain to me as part of this community what goals and objectives are put by community leaders?
I have seen a lot of changes lately, but they are small. Where I could, I took the feasible part.

Here too.

1. So about global goals.
Is it attracting new players? This increase in the number of online players, activity? What is it?

2. What tools do you know other than memes? SEO. social networks, events?
The chosen person is responsible for organizing all these events.

3. How will the person to be accounted and to whom the person is recruited? (this is a conversation about control of actuality and results).

I'm not going to participate. I have suggestions and remarks.
Interesting? I am ready to set them out.

Suppose that there are two big tasks:
1. attraction of new players;
2. Involvement of already existing players in the game, increasing interest (increasing the number of online users and games).

Decision.
1. To communicate with new players, it is necessary to develop an involvement system, starting with a competent presentation and ending with user-friendly materials and assistance. I now do not see anything of this.
Everything is shattered.

1.1. Presentation materials. The guys are already 21st century, and you show static pictures on the site - it's a shame!

Here is an example of what can be done on the basis of the game engine.

This is the representation of the players.

This is part of the gameplay - the Battle of the Sea

1.2. Site and help sections.
Guys, I'm dejected by the current design and the submission of material on the site. A good free template in my opinion can be better than the current one.
For a person who is the first time getting acquainted with the FAF, this is a very inconvenient system for submitting material (communication).
I really do not know ordinary people who are starting to know something from Wikipedia.
Ordinary people like short step-by-step instructions.
That's the main page of the site should be short and simple:

It could be like:
What is a FAF - description + video.
How to start playing - a few simple steps in the shots or videos.
How to talk and communicate with players - again a short description or video.

1.3 Channels of attraction.

SEO - content creation, linking, structure of site.
Social networks - the publication of recent events. I can specify the list if necessary.
Imageboards - where you can use your favorite memes.

I will fix the !streams command

Fix the streams command now and then I will vote for you.

I'm the promotion councillor now?

!casts is still broken, no deal.

Deal?


Also no line breaks because aeoncom gets very salty then.

[JaggedAppliance]

That's a pretty good application

All that shit

1. So about global goals.
Is it attracting new players? This increase in the number of online players, activity? What is it?

My goal has always been the free flow of information within and outside of FAF. Everything else you mentioned is secondary and most likely a result of success in the primary.

2. What tools do you know other than memes? SEO. social networks, events?

1. Memes are a tool, then what else is a tool? Everything else you mentioned would be more akin to a platform
2. What the f*** is an SEO
3. Yes, you are more than welcome to try and find my social networks, I know some particularly clever people have already found them.
4. Hi, I'm Moonbearonmeth. The blue colour my name currently has indicated I am a Tournament Director.

The chosen person is responsible for organizing all these events.

That's funny, you should be a comedian.

3. How will the person to be accounted and to whom the person is recruited? (this is a conversation about control of actuality and results).

Come again?

I'm not going to participate.

A shame, you should. You certainly seem to have a lot of ideas on how this should be done.

Im not comedian .


First and main:
Start from this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promotion_(marketing)

The flow of information flows in my opinion is an unreasonable goal. Any person can generate tons of useless information and give them movement.

The goal of "promotion" is not the organization of the process or the creation of the flow, but some result that can usually be measured.

The second point, which I maybe I have poorly explained.
An elected candidate must report to voters for actions. This is the most effective tool to show that promises are being fulfilled.

Therefore, increasing the flow of information is a poor indicator of efficiency.

And for example, improving the site, creating a content plan for filling the site and social networks with new materials - this can be measured. There were 2 boring news, there were 10 interesting news in a month. There was a site far in search result on request, became on the 5th place and so on. There were 5 tournaments boring, it became 4 but very entertaining and massive.

To measure interest, it is necessary to conduct measurements - surveys of participants.
To determine new inputs in the balance sheet, it is possible and necessary to conduct surveys.
Today, everything is based on a half-empty forum. I have already made a proposal to make for each country or regona its language branch, to revive communication and begin to collect a more active community.

Obviously, there are a lot of interesting events in the background of the community that do not reach all at all. This is a developer conference, discussion of changes by the balance team, testing a new server and connecting. All this people can learn only from friends and acquaintances who are involved in this process.
We have a team of personal trainers.
Who knows about this?
You can make a large review about each of the directions once a month, or several small ones. That's the content, that's the involvement.
What now? Several reports about patches and upcoming tournaments.

If we are talking about tools or platforms, then you need to use corporate accounts: FB, Instagram, twitch, youtube and others.


And in the end, I thought that everyone can learn new by typing a new word in Google.
"SEO" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_en ... timization


Thank you for the offer to participate. I have a full-fledged job.
And I will be happy if there is an applicant who will take at least part of my proposals and implement them. I can help and advise.
