My Mini City lets you create a new village (without registering) and then see it grow as new unique referrers are pointed towards it. The city I just created, IITB, can be seen above in its current near-empty status. But others cities like Barbelith are already much bigger, sometimes showing impressive skyscrapers.
By default, linking to your city will increase its population when people click the link. But once the city grew a bit, new links on the city sub-domain become available to grow specific sectors – say, linking to iitb.myminicity.com/ind/ will increase the city’s industry, whereas .../tra/ will push its transport facilities.
With this incentive to create backlinks, MyMiniCity.com is likely to reach high PageRank and keeps gaining traffic over time (the homepage currently has a PR5, with around 21,600 pages on the domain – many to most of them their own sub-domains – indexed in Google).
The site was created by Motion-Twin, who exist since 2001 and call themselves the “leading provider of online games for the French-speaking public.”
