So far the game seems to work well and run smoothly, so it would be nice now to increase the number of players.

Does anyone have idea's on how and where we could promote a game like this?

Maybe you could make application for app store and google play for both rocking rackets and rocking soccer. It would certanly attract some crow and it's free to upload (at least on android I think).

Smartphone and tablet apps are real hit at this moment and having app on stores is promotion for itself.

Developing an app for the game is certainly a good idea, but I fear this is too much work for the developers as of now...?

I think maybe we can exchange the our link with other similar online football games, forums, etc. Also let every user have a promotion link, from which he/she can benefit a bit (credits, VIP account, etc).

And since the selling tickets feature takes effect today, I guess you can add a register entry there in the page too, so that the users can even send the link to his friend who isn't a user yet. When he gets an account, he can vote for his friend. I think it's also a way for promoting.

Hi protein, you don't need a user account to buy tickets, you can do so when you're not logged in. So even friends who have no interest in getting an account can help you now and then to get fans by clicking your link.

If that's not clear it might need clarification?

An app is a good idea. I anyway want to make a mobile version of the game since that's become increasingly more important.

Thanks Vincent, I got it now. :)
It's indeed a good way to promote the game then, but will that lead to spamming or even cheating issues...?

It takes a good amount of time to make an app, and for IOS it costs some money too..
I would not make option like promotion links for users so that you get an unfair advantage just because you know ppl who want to play or register for you. And it is so easy to abuse.
Google ads on football sites is a good idea. Besides that, it is just continue to develop the game to a level where it is "complete". Now there is still some rather big things in development, considering the games focus.

Creating a nice video of the game would be nice too (with things that you can do in this game). Post it on youtube, or even open account with the name of the game. Create page on facebook/twitter and pay for advertisment.
With good advertaising you can do anything you want. :)

Creating an application would indeed be a great idea. Is it affordable?

How about top sites kinda links (similar to what you have in rocking rackets).. and reward people who click the links for you.. this is how I found out about the tennis version.

Kezza: I have no idea if those sites actually work, but apparantly they do ;) I did consider adding this here as well.

@Ofer: I thought at least 50% of the Israeli speaks English (very) well? Other languages are nice, but don't have any priority yet imho.

My idea. In statistics of the
league a ranking of competitors
should be with the greatest
average of evaluations.
