STATS AND FACTS:
Since opening its doors in 1995, the MGL has grown from a Mac column on a PC games site to a Mac-only mega-game information site with an visitation rate of over 325,000 unique visitors and over 1.2 page requests per month. In fact, our reader base has doubled in less than one year...and our statistics indicate that Mac users are still discovering MGL. We average just over 11 million total hits per month as well. In addition, we are part of the MacAddict Network, a collection of hand-picked high quality Mac web sites. We also contribute regularily to Mac Pressen (Mac Swedish magazine), and MGL's founder, Mike Dixon, is the Macintosh contributing editor of GameWEEK, a major weekly game retail industry print publication. In March of 1999, long-time Mac games site, Networkable Mac Games, joined with our site. NMG offers the best and most comprehensive coverage of net gaming help on the Mac.

Served on a dedicated server at fast T1 speeds, the MacGamer's Ledge has got the power and speed necessary to provide great exposure and easy navigation for our Mac gaming fans.

From a satisfied sponsor:

"Interact! CD-ROM Store has been working with MGL since March, 1997 with great success. MGL is a well respected and maintained site, filled with current and correct information regarding Macintosh gaming. Its greatest strength, however, lies in its readers who are, first and foremost, consumers. MGL readers are lovers of not only the Macintosh and its games, but of computers in general and they are not afraid or even unwilling to spend money in the pursuit of computer bliss. We have had great success targeting MGL readers with special offers."
