Profitable game: how you can earn money by playing your favorite games

(4/12) Online games that offer the chance for players to make money are similar to those that do not; both need the player to take certain actions that are dictated by the gameplay and regulations. But in the first scenario, some accomplishments might earn you actual money in addition to in-game accolades.

Even while playing games without making any financial investments or withdrawals seems concerning at first, this occurrence is very reasonable from an economic standpoint.

Online casino

The type of earnings in online casinos is slightly different from standard video games, where the player receives money for advertising that the creator inserts into the game. The point here is your knowledge and skills. Any certified online casino, like Slotum Casino, has standard games like:

  • Poker;
  • Slot machines;
  • Roulette;
  • Blackjack;
  • Baccarat, etc.

But also online casinos often have in their offer games that are familiar and understandable to many, on which you can make money, for example:
  • Video slots are slot machines with a reel. The user can promote it and place a bet. Video slots come in hot and cold varieties, plus there is a difference in theme: space, travel, Egypt;
  • Arcades - their essence is to compete with other players. These could be sports battles or races. To win, you need to show the best result. To do this, it is important to come first on the track;
  • Bingo - The idea is that the player receives a ticket. The numbers are marked on it, and when they appear in the drum, you can cross them out.

NFT games

NFT games are similar to other pay-to-earn games in which you can earn money, but instead of regular money, people earn virtual assets - tokens or NFTs. The former can be sold on crypto exchanges, and the latter can be collected or sold on special platforms - virtual auctions. All settlements with the player occur in in-game cryptocurrency (ETH, SPS, GODS, TOWN).

The four most popular NFT games are:
  • Splinterlands;
  • Gods Unchained;
  • Ax Infinity;
  • Town Star.

All these games have one thing in common: to earn money, you will have to spend money at the start either on cards, on developing a farm, on in-game items, or on purchasing characters. But judging by reviews on independent platforms, NFT games have impressive returns. You don't need any special knowledge - just input capital and time to play daily.

Publishing articles about games on your website

Monetization of game content is one of the most promising ways to make money from games. You create a website where you regularly publish popular articles about a specific game or the entire industry (for example, about e-sports or popular MMORPGs). The content must be expert and high quality.

It is better to publish articles about games on your website every day for at least six months. If you are in the industry, write articles yourself; if not, you will have to hire an expert writer.

Next, choose a method for monetizing your content. The most obvious option is to participate in the affiliate program of the Google AdSense advertising system, which will place banners on your website.

Every day, new users will open your site, and see advertising, and you, as a webmaster, will begin to receive affiliate compensation. In terms of cost per click in contextual advertising, the game is firmly in the middle. Only finance, loans, and real estate are more expensive.

The advantage of your thematic website for games is predictable earnings. The main thing is to collect initial traffic and regularly publish new articles. In the future, you will regularly receive money on your card.

Professional eSports

Esports is a niche with the most impressive fees. There are tournaments for prizes worth three million dollars and even more. In addition, professional esports players enter into lucrative advertising contracts and participate in promotions and other events, earning even more money. As for the monetization of eSports broadcasts, it occurs through viewers and subscriptions to streams.

Making money from games as an eSports player is one of the most difficult: you need to devote a huge amount of time to teamwork (every day from 5-7 hours or more), improve your reaction and speed, and spend money on qualifying competitions and hardware. Just like real athletes.
