Just wanted to say something here, i checked out your site littleguy, and here is my unbiassed opinion coming up...
A great way to expsose your site to the click-world is to ask for a front page news bit on the dc, you will be sure of lots of comments and visits.
The thing with community sites is that you have to keep updating them all the time with news, games, reviews, the lot. When you start out this is the big part because you have to have patience, i would like to remind ya that even the daily click in its early days and even in its scripted asp version had bad days, i remember at one point the forums did not get "1" reply or forum post at all and i was the only one posting on the forums, hehehe, kinda like talking to myself But i believe if you keep doing something you believe in good things will happen, and look at the dc today, i am so proud of the people visiting and the admins for keeping it alive.. you guys rock! ergmm anyway back to the forum post...
The same went for games, i had to start things up by getting games from somewhere else and putting them myself on the dc just to get some content, you have to do lots of things with a community site yourself and it can take months or even a year before users start really posting stuff and using the forums.
The thing is you have to gain the users trust that this site is hear to stay and that you are 100% behind it, you wont update it whenever you feel like it but you update all the time for the people out there because that's what a community site is about.
When i check out clickcell, while the idea behind it is good, you just don't update it enough, there are almost no games on there, and the place seems rather empty, and you know that's not going to change unless you do something about it. Post some more games yourself, keep updating that news page from around the communtity all the time, but the thing is, you have to put some work into it, its not like "heck i created the start up coding, the design the graphics, i am done!" heck no this is only the beginning, and if you do keep updating it all the time don't expect to see any regular visitors for a while it takes time my friend.
you say the following "clickcell has been around for over a year, a year of writing to myself" that's right that's what it takes, but if you had a year on clickcell there should be many more games on there, more news... just keep working on it more, keep improving it, but the people wont come by themselfs, promote the site to, a forum post wont do, and once the people are there try to keep them there, keep them hooked, at the moment there is just not enough content out there for people to stay interested. I even saw a news post "gap" between november and may, that's a long time man. Just keep updating improving on it and get some games on there, if you have the time for it and keep doing so it could be big....
That's all
