FAQ for BestGames.to

1. What is the "Votes" system on our site?
Answer: The "Votes" system is a mechanism that allows registered users of our site to vote for their favorite MMO servers or projects. The more votes a server has, the higher it will be in the ranking after servers with paid points.

2. How often can I vote for my favorite project?
Answer: You can vote for the same project or server once a day. This means that after you vote, your next vote for that or another project will only be available after 24 hours.

3. Do I need to register on the site to vote?
Answer: Yes, in order to vote, you need to be a registered user. This helps us ensure the fairness and transparency of the voting process and prevents multiple voting.

4. How often is the server ranking based on votes updated?
Answer: The server ranking based on votes is updated every hour. This means that when you vote for a specific server, your vote will add +1 to its overall project rating. However, note that this vote will be displayed on the site after an hour. At the same time, the ranking on the homepage of the site is updated in real-time, showing the current position of the servers.

5. What happens to the ranking at the end of the month?
Answer: It's important to know that every first day of the month, from 00:00 to 01:00 local time, all votes are reset. This means that all servers and projects on the site will have a 0 votes indicator, and the ranking will start forming again from the beginning of the month. This system ensures equal conditions for all servers and gives new projects a chance to show themselves.

6. How can I make sure my vote is counted?
Answer: To monitor your votes, you can check them at any time in the "Votes" section of your account. Just go to the "My Votes" section in your personal cabinet. If your vote is displayed in this list, it guarantees that it was counted and submitted for consideration to the administration of the server you chose. Note: our system updates the list of votes every hour.

7. From which countries and IPs is server monitoring conducted?
Answer: The availability of the server site, as well as servers, is checked by the check-host.net service, and there may also be an additional check from the userAgent "BestGames_bot".

1. Account Registration: Start by creating an account on our site.
2. Adding a Server: In your personal cabinet, go to the "My Servers" section and click "Add New Server".

Manual Moderation:

After passing automatic verification, your server will be checked by our moderators. Make sure that:

• Your site is operational and matches the gaming theme.
• The voting button is placed in a visible location.
• All provided data are unique and current.

Why might a server be sent for revision or blocked?

• Long periods of unavailability of your site or server.
• Non-compliance with our rules.
• Cloaking

If your server requires revision, we will notify you by email. After making changes, submit the server for re-moderation through your account. Do not abuse this feature, or your server may be blocked.

How to attract attention to your server for free?

To attract attention to your gaming project and increase its popularity, it's important to follow these recommendations for adding your project to the ranking:

1. Project Name: Choose a meaningful name that gives players an idea of your project.

   • Good example: "BestGames L2 Classic x1 - Bonuses at the start!" - indicates the game (L2), version ("Classic"), rating ("x1"), and attracts attention ("Bonuses").
   • Bad example: "BestGames.to x100" - unclear description and project type, not informative.

2. Project Description: Describe your project in English and Russian, providing detailed information. The more information you provide, the more chances to attract players.

3. Social Media Links: Provide links to social media, as players often look for information there and may not want to register on the site.

4. Project Screenshots: Upload from 3 to 13 screenshots to the site. Projects with interesting and high-quality screenshots attract more attention.

5. Link to a Promo Trailer on YouTube: A video about the project significantly increases interest and allows you to attract an audience faster.

6. Adding a Server: After registration, add the server to your project, which will allow players to vote for your project and increase its popularity.

7. Project Reviews: Encourage players to leave reviews and vote for your project to increase its rating and attractiveness.

Following these instructions will help you attract players and increase the popularity of your project without significant investments and costs.
