If you want to compete with the big boys, you're gonna need money. Investing in oil would be a good place to start, those prices will be sky rocketing over the next few years, get 'em now, whilst they're low.

Or, we could break down the other sites using crowd breakers, like the ones they used in the 20s.

Well this is exactly the point of what I'm saying here - we can't compete directly with Gamespot or IGN in terms of having a staff of 100 people doing news / previews / reviews or whatever - what we need to do is get our numbers out there more, have it get to a point where the whole internet is waiting each week for our latest figures to see how their favourite games have done.

This brings up the other main issue facing VGChartz - credibility. For whatever reason, there are people out there who do their best to knock VGC at every opportunity which is probably the main reason why our growth has slowed right down.

This could be a tad unrealistic, but perhaps actually getting something done with N4G, where they have the a direct-feed of the latest figures (like that Kombo site, or whatever it was) - N4G (I assume) is one of the larger sites out there, and getting some official representation there could also help credibility.

Or, you could send out Missionaries to go trawling through Digg, Youtube and N4G comment sections, trying to convert as many as possible
