Find game sites that cater to the demographic your company targets. You don't want to advertise on a children's game site if you sell financial services. Find a game site where the players are your target audience.

Determine your advertising budget. More popular sites typically cost more than smaller ones, but you often reach many more people. A banner ad will cost more than a side bar or Google ad.

Find game sites that may be interested in affiliate sales on your site. Depending on your product, you may be able to create a deal where you do not pay unless a customer buys something. This reduces your outlay of cash and creates a win-win situation.

Contact the website or web ad agencies. If you are looking to be an affiliate or to place a banner ad, contacting the company directly is your best option. Ask to speak with someone in advertising sales. Online ad sites such as Google AdSense allow you to fill out an online questionnaire and submit ads to the search engines. You don't have as much control over your ad placement in this situation, though.
