No Limit Hold'em
Freeroll
1843 players
$5096.50 USD added to the prize pool by PokerStars
Total Prize Pool: $5096.50 USD
Tournament started 2010/01/27 23:00:00 WET [2010/01/27 18:00:00 ET - 2010/01/27 23:00 GMT]

Dear pomppoker,

You finished the tournament in 7th place.
You have won an admission ticket to 'SCOOP - $215 Entry'.
This ticket allows you to participate only in a tournament of this type.
Tickets are not redeemable for cash or Tournament US Dollars; if you register and then
unregister from the tournament, your ticket will be returned.

To view your available tournament tickets, go to Requests; Tournament Tickets in the
main lobby.
You earned 64.57 tournament leader points in this tournament.

I sat down to this game at 2300 GMT feeling very confident for a change as all the kids were in bed and mrspomp was unwell she was also in the land of nod. This gave me the perfect surroundings for a long slog which I knew this was going to be if I was to get in the prizes.

Sadly,and this is something that needs addressing,I have never been one for recording hands,bad beats etc so to cut a long story short I rode my luck a little almost going out 1st hand after the 1st break when my Qh Jd cracked pocket Aces.

Along the way I had more luck but also played some WSOP class poker. At times I was called all sorts of unearthly and obscene names as well as hearing "Good Call" and "Well Played" aimed at me along with some fun table banter.

However 1st place was not to be and just before 4am I went out in 7th place from 1843 runners and I had won myself an admission ticket to 'SCOOP - $215 Entry' ]]> pomp http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/pomp/993-wcoob-event-3-nlh.html The 10 Commandments for Tournament Poker http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/addz123/992-10-commandments-tournament-poker.html Wed, 03 Feb 2010 01:48:38 GMT This is probably something I should have drummed up along time ago.

Is this a joke? How can a site or a domain be "illegal"?

Illegal = against direct violation in T&C. Used wrong word.

Aaah ok, now I see what you are saying. More like unethical, I guess. I don't know, this is one that's up for debate, I suppose. I know the owner of pokercodesonline.com but he hasn't been around for a long time.

What ever happened to contacting site owners directly, or reporting them to Google, hosting company, or affiliate program when appropriate?

Nick, if you're gonna call someone out, try not to be so cryptic

I have reported to PokerStars. They said they were acquiring one of the domains in question and then they let the affiliate redirect to another "not-allowed" domain which redirects to pokercodesonline.

What T&C's? - probably the ones that say we cant use pokerstars terms in domainss and the same ones that let them close affiliate accounts and acquire their website.

fwiw, I know for a fact that pokercodesonline.com does not make a dime from pokerstars with regards to their ranking for that term. The bonus code on that site is a dead giveaway for that. I'm not sure what you have accomplished by contacting PokerStars in this matter, except maybe waste a lot of your time tracking this down.

Just because they aren't making any money, doesn't mean it isn't costing me any money.

This thread seems unlike you. Not sure why you would call someone out like this, but I'll play this game if you want. You are receiving revenue directly from the proceeds of gambling operations that are considered illegal by my government. You are in clear violation of US federal law. You know were friends dude, I just don't get this thread.

Sorry if i'm a bit slow. Are you saying that this person is buying domains containing pokerstars, then redirecting them to his site in order to rank for the term pokerstars?

Then i really don't see much wrong with it, as the pokerstars domain will only show in a google search until google caches it and realises that it's redirected, then it'll disappear.

The person is redirecting the domains, to other websites until they get caught. Then they redirect to another website. So on and so on.

How does that work? Let's say that they own pokerstarsbonus .com and they redirect it to mypoker .com. Pokerstarsbonus automatically disappears from the serps. Where does the getting caught bit come in, and what benefit do they gain?

Using the example you stated.

They would use domain pokerstarsbonus.com, then build a site on it and get links, make a shitload of money. Then they would get caught and redirect it to pokerstarsmarketingcode.com and make a shitload of money until they got caught. Then they would redirect it to pokerstarsbonuscode.com etc etc etc. They have a ton of these sites going at the same time.

It's a good idea. Obviously this is against pokerstars rules, but if they don't really care, why not do it as well?

Man this is just a joke. You seriously have nothing better to do? THIS crap is what is costing you money, not these guys doing their thing.

No doubt you will attack me for posting my opinion again, but I don't care This is just embarrassing for you IMHO

Since you are calling people out, feel free to call me out of w.e-

I'm now calling you out! Show us where this person is costing you money, cause I bet they aren't in reality. Do you actually rank for pokerstars terms? Let's see it. I would bet you don't rank for Stars terms, and just because you are not making money doesn't mean its because PCO is using some 301's.

Actually you are wrong. I dominate the whole first page of a pokerstars term and one of these domains is now in top 2 positions.

Didn't think it would take you long to show up here. Yet again you are wrong.

I also know from the other PokerStars thread that I receive more CPAs than you. Shut your mouth.

EDIT: I have already shown this to a senior member here so no need to try and say I'm full of shit.

Like I said, reporting them to PokerStars was a waste of your time. You haven't done anything productive here and have, in fact, wasted your time. Think about it, if pokerstars and the owner of this site DO NOT have a business relationship, what can be done by contacting Pokerstars?

It definitely seems a little unlike you, at least what I know about you. I can see where the all-mighty dollar can affect people and their ability to reason but by your rational, everyone who ranks in the top ten for "online poker" should be pissed at Wikipedia for ranking in there, as well.

I respectfully disagree with you Mike. PokerStars have written to me saying they are acquiring the domains. Problem is, they let them redirect instead.

I don't see why everyone's attitude is so negative. I'm pointing out someone that is clearly breaking conditions that are forced upon all of us.

I think this whole thread is silly, and like I said I seriously doubt you make money at all, but ok. The thing is, people actually making money don't spend time tracking down crap like this.

So like I said, if you are bold enough to call out people, back it up. And if you are dominating a page of Stars terms, wtf are you worried about? Sounds like more whining and bitching about life not being "fair" which just shows you have yet to figure it all out.

LOL, that has been the standard procedure for a while. they either buy the domain themselves, or they allow the affiliate to 301? What's wrong with that?

Randy why don't you mind your own business. Perhaps you want to get involved because you are scared that i will reveal your domain as well, yes I know about it.

I love how you like to make every thread about you.

It always comes back to you telling everyone one of the following:

1. I make so much more money than you
2. Shut up and go earn some money and stop whinging
3. Randy Ray taught me everything I know
4. I work for a fortune 500 company
5. You are jealous of how good I am

Why don't you go back to hustling PAL members for 8k for your bullshit SEO services that are the result of being a mod here and telling everyone Randy Ray taught you everything you know.

It's about time you fucking manned up, give the dozen people that I personally know of that you owe links to (including me) and mind your own business.

Perhaps you could even spend more time analysing your competition at RakeUpdate.

Comes down to this - I know what you get up to and can see past yout deceptive games. Noone gives a shit about how you work 20 hours a day and are completely happy.

The only thing you are good at is self promotion. I will take my hat off to you for that.

But someone has to put you into your place. That person is me. Stop getting free shit by saying "im generous with links and will hook you up man." Give everyone their links. Stop hustling PAL members and my friends into paying 8k for SEO services. Don't give site reviews and then turn around and say they are obligated to your SEO services and kick up a stink when they tell you to piss off.

Everyone is sick of your shit man. Noone thinks you are as good or as successful as you claim to be. Stop twisting every thread into a self promotion tool.

Your behaviour over the PokerNations episode is a perfect example of your character. You are shady as fuck, now mind your own business.

If there was a conflict of interest in online gambling, you would be the marquee man.

You have fucked too many people over for too long. Your time is up.

Dude, I don't know what the fuck you are talking about? Are you drunk? Seriously I have never done SEO for anyone here??

The bottom line here dude is you are totally nutty

Please elaborate and BACK UP your claims because you are lying and you look even more silly now.

I think I have helped a lot if people here, never charged a dime. Someone post if I have. So please back up what you say man.

Edit: Reading your thread, I think one thing is for sure. You spend way too much time thinking about me

I think at conferences they should set up boxing matches. Sometimes it's the only way to solve things.

LOL classic Randy. Love you man!

Ok so, once again if I have ever done SEO or charged for SEO here at PAL, please speak up. I know nobody will because its bullshit. I also do not think I'm any better than anyone here. I'm not rich, I'm not all knowing, and I've had many more failures than I have had winners.

The REAL story here is Nick and I use to get along. Then about 4-5 months ago he asked me for 5k for a Roulette domain, and I basically avoided him since then. I didn't know him well enough and it was just weird. I have the IM logs and if I need to post I will. So I guess since then I'm the devil??

Finally, I'm sick of the personal attacks and silly lies. We should be able to disagree without it turning into a giant cluster, its just silly. I will not put up with anymore personal attacks on myself or anyone else. That shit ends here and now. This is a business forum and it should be professional. Again, we should be able to disagree without it turning into personal attacks.

Anyway, I'm done with this thread. I've asked Jeremy and other mods to step in and handle it. I should have just stayed out of it I guess, as I knew me posting would turn into a cluster lol -

I will buy you a beer in exchange for a Long Island. In two years I will be old enough, unless of course it is outside of the US.

"Edit: Reading your thread, I think one thing is for sure. You spend way too much time thinking about me "

Point #5 - You are jealous of how good I am.

Randy, the difference than me and you in that I'm open and honest. Hell head over to my blog and find out my deepest, darkest secrets.

You can't disprove me, people trust me. You are a liar and a scammer.

I'm glad you brought up the domain issue. I even had a Skype convo an hour before you posted it:

[1:37:59 PM] Nick Haslem: now is the time he tries to discredit me by saying i dont make any money
[1:38:07 PM] Nick Haslem: and asked to borrow 1600 from him one time

Game time is up. I can see right through you.

That's right Randy, i asked to borrow $1600 from you one time for a Craps domain. Not 5k, and no it wasn't roulette. You were more than happy to lend me the money, however the payment I was waiting for came through and I no longer needed the short term loan. Your lies don't fly here anymore mate.

It's funny how you are now running away and claiming personal attacks. That's because you are involved in every single one. Funny that isn't it?

Please continue to try to disprove me and call me looney. Fact is, the majority agree with me. Trust and honesty are worth more than your hot air and deceit.

"the rant by Hazo is absolutely excellent." Just because you can fool some people, doesn't mean you can fool all.

Noone is jealous of you, noone thinks you are as good as you say you are and everyone has had enough of your shit.

These "personal attacks" only seem to happen when your self promotion goes horribly wrong.

Randy Ray - I laughed hard

Closing this thread - pointless - only going to cause everyone more grief than it can help.

If you disagree Jeremy, please re-open.

I'm not running man - I'll make you a deal -

Prove I've even done SEO for anyone on PAL or charged anyone on PAL money, or scammed anyone and I'll ban myself. Prove I'm some kind of scammer and I'll ban myself, leave PAL and never come back. The fact is you are spouting non-sense

I may be an asshole, but I'm not a scammer

Post some proof! Otherwise you are just spouting personal attacks

The fact is man, I have to think you are having some type of breakdown or something, you and I got along well until I didn't loan you money. Since then I'm some kind of scammer??

I try and help other affiliates, not being I'm all knowing but because other affiliates helped me. I keep an SEO blog and a business blog to post tips and things I've learned to help others. A lot of people seem to appreciate what I and other affiliate contribute. I'm truly sorry you do not, or think its some kind of ploy to scam people.

Again, everyone knows my main website - Felt, LooseChange, twilight gear, etc several mini sites - a few dozen in all, all are legit sites. - I have nothing to hide and I suspect you already know that.

Anyway, I'm truly sorry that you seem to have such issues with me. I honestly try and help because before I found Poker Affiliating I was broke as hell and not sure what I was goign to do with my life. Yeah I had a job, but not one I could see doing for the next 30 years. So I do feel an obligation to help others, and I DO NOT charge anyone lol, at least not small or new affiliates -

Anyway, we can agree to disagree and I'm going to leave this be. If you have some type of proof to backup me being a shady scammer, please post it. If you knwo someone I have "scammed" then have them post or something. If not then you need to understand that personal attacks against mods or any other PAL member will not be tolerated anymore.

If you do not want me or anyone else posting their opinion on something, then you don't need to post it. This is public forum and people have opinions so you will need to deal with that.

Cheers

Edit: Corp just saw you closed this, thanks. Will be my last post on this thread anyway.

No - Randy made it personal by attacking the guy who was just defending his own interests against someone who is clearly violating stars terms.

It was a BS response from Randy and obv. there is some history - so it becomes what it becomes.

Not sure what Randy was afraid of by letting the thread run, but he obv. attempted to shut all discussion down quickly.

Personally I'm a bit miffed that a guy who claims to be an SEO export wouldn't know that a 301 redirected site will just give the target site the same serp rank as the original, therefore the guy does benefit by 301 his violating site to a new violating site, as the original was an exact match keyword domain.

Lads chill out - K there is some issue here going on more than some guy doing blackhat stuff. Calling someone out like that is a lil on called for if you see them doing it contact em and ask/tell em to stop putting it in a forum like here creates a drama bomb.

Randy I know you were called out here but its kinda 50/50 banning the guy is not the answer pick up the phone and talk and sort your stuff out in private its not for us to see or hear about.. Just chill out have a beer and if you wanna get mad support Liverpool

Yeah I agree, although I'd liek to I didn't won't since I'm involved. Nobody is getting banned lol -

Ozpoker, I'm not afraid of anything with that thread, I just disgaree with calling out PAL members here like that. I know exactly what 301's can do, and it is what it is. I don't see the point in calling out one site over the others. Because there is thousands.

We have had this come up several times and it has been made clear that we do not want pal to be the place where people are called out for how they runt heir sites. short of stealing content, lack of payment, etc -

Rather I woudl like to see a debate on the effectiveness and ethics of doing something like that, and not targeting a specific site for it/

I conclude that this penis measuring contest has ended in a draw. You're both smaller than a barnacle. Now kiss and make up so we can get back to talking about better things. Like corpfan's avatar.

Hey Randy, I really like how you abused your mod status to re-open a thread so you could have the last word. And by the way, the operative word is "trying" to get SEO jobs.

Well anyway, here is your proof.

[2/11/2009 4:48:15 PM] xxxx: was it about the poker nations thing or something?
[2/11/2009 4:48:28 PM] Nick Haslem: I think the market place rules or something

Crazy treads tonight, wouldn't normally reply to these, just wanted to say that I got 'Eric' a few weeks ago to do a small job and it was done in 40 mins, stand up guy even sent an invoice (which was a shock to me, with being used to working with you guys ) personally he is now my wp guru if I need anything.. Just wanted to put that in as you said his name Hazo.. Absolutely nothing against you as you seem to be also a stand up guy and im sure you have some reasons for posting tonight.

Randy give up with the whole discrediting thing, you look stupid. It's obvious it wasn't fabricated, I have the convo saved so i have no qualms showing it once I get permission.

I thought you would have learned your lesson about abusing you mod status, yet you did twice in the last hour.

I've said what I needed to say and am happy about it. My problem really? I've made that quite clear. There is no ulterior motive. No need to keep diverting attention away from yourself.

Thanks everyone for the support in IM chats and emails. Much appreciated.

+1 - I would agree entirely to this. I will also point out that being banned for arguing with a mod looks super abusive...AND...it looks more suspicious when he's immediately unbanned. Just horrible all around.

Also, I'd like to say that I feel there was nothing wrong with Hazo's original post. He had an issue and wanted to discuss it. He was attacked for just that, then banned for sticking up for himself. If this is a so called business forum, then how come he's attacked for bringing up business related topics? Regardless of how you feel about the topic, it's still related to this industry which is, wow, business related.

Overall, it's pretty fucking sad that for every 1 decent thread that's created you have to wade through 3-4 worthless ones filled with this childish shit before you can read it. This place just continues to decrease in value for people who are truly looking to succeed in this business.

Anyway, enough of my rant - although I've never talked to Hazo before, I just wanted to say I agree with him 100%. It's nice to see someone stand up and speak their mind.

And as a result of what I've seen tonight and over the last couple months, I'm done here at PAL. I have better places to spend my time. If anyone needs me, they can reach me by email/IM.

Lol - self promotion at its best - even pretended to not know what a major competitors brand was! As if any real businessman wouldn't immediately know who their competitors were.

When I spoke about a select group of hype and marketing here at PAL in a thread here not long ago - i think between the thread above and cardspike and a few other threads and brands you see the trend.

Its fine for me coz I'm not an idiot and I don't hold any of you on a pedestal so i don't get sucked in by the constant - "oh this guy is brilliant" - "this guys is an expert" - bs that goes one here and at PAP previously.

But newbies do - and as a newbie once who almost got sucked in to it - I see the danger.

There's a couple of guys on here - who as affiliate managers and affiliate service providers have gone from failure to failure and yet get pumped up like there's no tomorrow. I'm not saying they are paid posts, but they might as well be.

Maybe - and I think this is the biggest part of it - it is a cultural divide - there seems to be a US theme on everything and you guys always need to tell us how good you are. It doesn't wash with the rest of the world and its something you might want to take on board if you trying to be world wide forum.

I'm not sure what causes it - its some kind of inert need to be acknowledged as an expert or specialist - but the take home message is that doesn't happen in the rest of the world and it is strongly off putting for the rest of us.

I don't expect any support for my point of view from most of you - but I'm sure my views resonate with the "silent minority".

BTW - I have just reminded myself some 30 minutes after this post about having a similar conversation with another non US affiliate some 2 years ago about PAP and hype and geocentricity.

Just goes to show the more things change - the more they stay the same.

j/k bud

I'm going to attempt to hijack this drama again and get you guys focused on the major issue of the day. Not to belittle any of the issues/problems discussed in this thread of course. I just think PSP deserves everyone's rants until they reverse this ridiculous decision. I suppose I'm just still steaming over it and reading other people's complaints about it makes me feel a little better. I'll let you guys have at it from here on out though.

I'm not gonna go into this whole Randy thing as I have never really paid attention to him. But I agree about the US thing. One of the funniest things (and it seems like these are always US affiliates) in this business is that the people who have had moderate success, but are not in reality all that good, always want to give the imperssion that they are some super smart god-like affiliates and rest of us are fools. What makes this funny is that the people who are actually succesfull never seem to make a big number about it and tell everyone how good they are.

Aaah ok, now I see what you are saying. More like unethical, I guess. I don't know, this is one that's up for debate, I suppose. I know the owner of pokercodesonline.com but he hasn't been around for a long time.

What ever happened to contacting site owners directly, or reporting them to Google, hosting company, or affiliate program when appropriate?

Nick, if you're gonna call someone out, try not to be so cryptic

I have reported to PokerStars. They said they were acquiring one of the domains in question and then they let the affiliate redirect to another "not-allowed" domain which redirects to pokercodesonline.

What T&C's? - probably the ones that say we cant use pokerstars terms in domainss and the same ones that let them close affiliate accounts and acquire their website.

fwiw, I know for a fact that pokercodesonline.com does not make a dime from pokerstars with regards to their ranking for that term. The bonus code on that site is a dead giveaway for that. I'm not sure what you have accomplished by contacting PokerStars in this matter, except maybe waste a lot of your time tracking this down.

Just because they aren't making any money, doesn't mean it isn't costing me any money.

This thread seems unlike you. Not sure why you would call someone out like this, but I'll play this game if you want. You are receiving revenue directly from the proceeds of gambling operations that are considered illegal by my government. You are in clear violation of US federal law. You know were friends dude, I just don't get this thread.

Sorry if i'm a bit slow. Are you saying that this person is buying domains containing pokerstars, then redirecting them to his site in order to rank for the term pokerstars?
Reply With Quote ]]> The All Seeing http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/the-all-seeing/989-shaping-future-pal-my-proposal.html February = Big Month For Sports Betting Affiliates http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/kevinmcc69/988-february-big-month-sports-betting-affiliates.html Mon, 01 Feb 2010 21:34:14 GMT Am I right? I've only been doing sports betting affiliating for less then a year (and like 6 months serious)... but it seems to me that February should be maybe the biggest month of the year for sports betting sites and affiliates.

Of course the main event that should bring in a ton of betting is the Superbowl. Superbowl 44 is this Sunday (Feb.7th) and it is the biggest sports betting event of the year (Is that world wide or just North American? I'm not sure). Even if you run lets say a soccer portal and have a bunch of sports bettors, I am sure you will see some cross over bets on the Superbowl and hopefully some revenue. I should be in a decent position as I have a sports betting news types site that I have been writing Football articles for all year, and recently got up my Bet on Superbowl 44 mini site to try and take advantage of some Superbowl traffic.

Another big event in February is of course the Winter Olympics which starts mid February. Obviously I haven't been around long enough to see if the Olympics is a big betting event, but I am hoping since it is world wide it is somewhat big. I have created a hit or miss Bet on Winter Olympics resource to kind of test the waters. Obviously the Winter Olympics only come around once every 4 years so this is a realllllly focused niche site that will probably only get sign ups for like 1 in every 48 months. It will be fun either way, and I will be placing some bets on CANADA in the Olympics. :D

On top of those two big events there is the NHL and NBA seasons still running and producing sign ups and betting action.

I remember posting a while ago that I wasn't sure what the value was like for sports bettors, but after a couple months I think that it is pretty good. I think it would be smart to take MGR over lets say a $100 CPA (especially if the book has a crossover Casino) for anyone getting into the sports betting affiliating.

For those older sports betting affiliates out there... Is February usually one of the biggest months of the year? Or which month is? ]]> KevinMcC69 http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/kevinmcc69/988-february-big-month-sports-betting-affiliates.html 2 great articles by DealerDan http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/superiorword/983-2-great-articles-dealerdan.html Thu, 21 Jan 2010 05:47:08 GMT Just saw 2 new articles by DealerDan.

I think this aspect of website building is often underestimated in the online poker industry. This isn't just an effective tool when it comes to keeping players on your website, it is huge when it comes to forming partnerships (especially with the big dogs). If your site looks like an authority site, you already have your foot in the door.

As far as effectiveness, I look to other industries for ideas. Huge calls to action are always important on the homepage especially... I don't know anyone who claims to have the perfect call to action yet... and I've seen most of your websites already... so I look around.

I'm also becoming a proponent of only promoting 2-3 poker rooms... so I can live without a huge list on my homepage; 1 big call to action is usually effective and covers 50% of the rooms I promote. Hence, lodging and travel websites are often a good place for inspiration. Here is a few of my favorite designs..

Great Dog Site

Liftopia

Snow.com

Colorado Ski Authority

Karmojo - This is here mostly because I like the use of icons and I think this is something that can be used in the poker industry very effectively. This also belongs to a PAL member I believe.

Chris Pirillo - Heavily optimized for adsense... good example for learning about placement- mostly right hand side and dead center. Also big bold icons on top right, im a big fan of this no matter what type of icon.

Bombay - Simple, Big Bold design elements. Can't miss the calls to action.. maybe go without the pink. ]]> PTC http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/ptc/982-pimp-your-design.html Affiliate Links -- Create And Implement A PHP Redirect. http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/addaminsane/981-affiliate-links-create-implement-php-redirect.html Thu, 14 Jan 2010 11:32:07 GMT Implementation of a php redirect will allow you to more easily manage your website's affiliate links. All of your outbound links to a particular room will direct to one url. Therefore, you can change all of the affiliate links...for one room...at any given time via one file.

4 Easy Steps I use to Create the PHP redirect file

1. I create a new folder in my websites root directory, i typically like to call mine "go". The name of the folder is not important unless there are language issues with a wordpress plugin your using in which case you'll need to use more than 2 letters to name the folder. You can call it "visit" or "room" or "out" or whatever you like.

2. I navigate to my websites robots.txt file and enter this line:

Quote:

*Disallowing my /go folder will prevent my redirect files to be crawled and safeguard me from boosting the search engine visibility of whatever revenue source i'm linking to. This is important because affiliate sites will often link to programs 5 or 6 times on any given page for conversion power.

3. I navigate back to the /go folder, create a php file, and name it for my particular room. In this case i will create a file for PokerStars and name it pokerstars.php.

4. I open the pokerstars.php file and enter this code with my affiliate url.

Quote:

...Now that i have my pokerstars.php file created, every time i link to pokerstars from my website i will link this url:

Quote:

...the html code i typically like to use is:

Quote:

*this exact setup is implemented and can be observed on Online Poker ED and CasinoReviews.com

This method will also completely insure that you are not giving search engine power to the online poker room, rake provider, training community, or other revenue source which you are linking to. After all, why would you want to contribute to your revenue source ranking better? ]]> addaminsane http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/addaminsane/981-affiliate-links-create-implement-php-redirect.html News from Europe, California, and a Sad Heart: APCW Perspectives Weekly http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/apcw-anthony/980-news-europe-california-sad-heart-apcw-perspectives-weekly.html Thu, 14 Jan 2010 04:48:08 GMT Perspectives Weekly is back for the new year after two weeks away.

With new affiliates coming on to the brand it's important for me to make sure that when you're sending traffic we can convert them to real players.

From an operators side there are always a few things to consider. One is the process a player goes through after they sign up. Another is the ease of depositing options (credit card acceptance rates). Also the people on staff who follow up with emails and support can increase your numbers a lot depending on how good they are.

From an affiliate side the thing I am learning about more and more is the 'model' super bingo affiliates use to convert more traffic. It seems like to me the sites that have the 'right' information about a program always tend to do better; regardless of how much traffic they're getting (percentages are still the same). So Greg, what's the right formula?

First off an ordered list is a must. Bingo players don't need a ton of choices. They don't usually have a ton of accounts like Casino and Poker players tend too. I'd suggest 5 great rooms to promote ideally each on a different software platform. See which offer a good bonus, offer you a good commission and then are responsive to players. Any decent program can get you good banners and a logo so that isn't a major concern. Another strong selling point is an image of the software and games. People like to see what it looks like. If a program accepts Us players then a flag or friendly message is a plus. Another is presenting the offer (deposit bonus, etc) as time sensitive! To get this great deal you need to click through and deposit before this date.
As for the information list, here are what I feel are the essentials. I'll use Cyber below as an example:

CyberBingo Facts:

* Min Deposit: $20
* Free Bingo Bonus Money: $100 (up to $300)
* Deposit bonuses available: Yes
* 1st time Deposit Bonus: $300
* 1st time Deposit Bonus Max Amount: $300
* Currencies accepted: USD, GBP
* E-mail Support: info@cyberbingo.com

There really isn't much along with a decent review (300-400 words) in case someone wants to read it. Most of this is for SEO. I can't stress the importance of a small list here. Both for the rooms you're presenting and the info about each one. Players are looking for a great deal that's trustworthy, not the in depth history of a program!

Educating players on how to make a deposit is another key to conversions. Bingo players are less savvy than other gamblers in general. Having a link from each review page to your 'How to Deposit and Withdraw' pages are both great for converting and for ranking! Remember, it's last cookie dropped :) Make them come to your site for information on cashing in!
Hope this helps, please shoot me any ideas or question anytime. Go get some bingo business while it's still a wide open market! ]]> Greg http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/greg/979-educating-converting-bingo-players.html PokerNations Member Attending 2010 PCA in the Bahamas http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/pokernations/978-pokernations-member-attending-2010-pca-bahamas.html Wed, 06 Jan 2010 16:53:33 GMT Priscila won our $3,500 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure package and is heading down on Thursday, Jan 7th to the Bahamas!

I'm working, and furthermore posting on here on new years eve. Now that's out of the way here's one of the reasons why. I came across King Niche on twoplustwo last week, and sat up all night laughing at his degenerate posts. I was literally crying with laughter at one point at things i really shouldn't have been laughing at. Then i realised that the guy had a massive following. Every one of his posts had pages of comments after it saying how great he is. I just had to get him to blog for me. So i sent him a pm and waited. He finally logged in and replied to me two days ago, and told me that pokersavvy had already enquired about signing him so i had to move fast. I told him i'd set him up a blog with deals attached, do all the work and give him half the profit if he simply posted on the blog instead of on twoplustwo. He agreed, so i've been busy setting things up and completed it an hour ago. Check out www.kingnicheblog.com and let me know what you think. I appreciate that he won't be to everyones taste, but i really think that there's a good earner in this. Happy new year everybody. ]]> pokerextras http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.com/forums/blogs/pokerextras/976-i-signed-up-pokers-most-notorious-writer.html
