How To: Promote Your Tracks
How to help others find a specific track by you:
Search terms:
- Creator Gamertag - typing in your Gamertag is the easiest way to find your tracks
- Type - helps narrow the search down
- Difficulty - helps narrow the search down
- Release time - (within the week, month, year) helps narrow the search down
So for example, if your GT is "CoolTrialsDude79, and want others to find your new "Pong Skillgame", tell them to search for:
"Pong Skillgame"
Creator: CoolTrialsDude79
Skill Game
Hard
Released 20.4.2012
Even if you have released 10 tracks that fit the above criteria, people will still easily spot the "Pong Skillgame" from the search results.
How to promote your track so you get more downloads and ratings:
- When posting your track, make sure the screenshot, info, tags and description are accurate and thought out.
- Make a video, or ask someone to do it for you. Stick the video on YouTube.
- Ask your friends to download and rate the track. See above for tips on helping them find it.
- Post in the User Created Tracks section in the Forums.
- When you post about your track, give good, clear pictures and an accurate description. A video is always good.
- Focus on quality over quantity when crafting tracks. If you get your name known for quality, people will remember you.

Re: How To: Promote Your Tracks
Definitely the best and most decent way to promote your track is to fload the
forums with new topics about your map.
Don't forget to send all Developers and moderators pms about how
awesome it is and that they should feature it within their next RedLynx picks.

Re: How To: Promote Your Tracks
Hi, I just uploaded a new skill game called Crazy Mini Soccer 1, my gamertag is NORWOOD NORWOOD (in all caps, just as I've written it).
If you're also searching by difficulty, tags and release date, it's a medium track, tagged as Puzzle, Physics, Themed and I released it on 27/04/2012.
I've also uploaded a supercross track called "Invasion", but you'll see that when/if you search for my gamertag. Please download, play and rate them.
I don't know if I should have made a new topic for this, seems pointless seen as I can't take good pictures/video of it with my phone, and I figured people would be looking at this topic.
Anyway, enjoy the tracks, feel free to send me some feedback/criticism via my gamertag on your Xbox.
Thanks.
