From AM to affiliate, Life on the other side...
Posted 05-29-2009 at 08:53 AM by Geof
You might have seen on my PAL/CAL profile that i now work on the affiliate side, although i feel i always worked for you as an AM anyway 
Now is the time to share my experience after a couple of weeks working at this very successful poker affiliate which is www.PokerStrategy.com with the hope you'll get inspired for your own affiliate business.
PokerStrategy.com started through eSport and what once was a small internet community of eSport gamers with a passion for poker, has grown in the biggest poker school in the world. The owner got contacted by games company to be sponsored; this is when he had the idea to use a similar model with poker.
Now about the reasons why it became so successful and how you could take PS as a model: But don't copy him okay?
See you all around here on PAL.

Now about the reasons why it became so successful and how you could take PS as a model:
- PS were among the first to go through the free bankroll route: find your niche
- PS know they're good at what they're doing and do not get distracted: focus on your skills
- PS keep working hard to be even better at what they already are very good at: keep improving to maintain the advantage
- PS add a huge value to their members: do more than a simple listing of the rooms you promote
- PS treat their members as if they were their own players (not the operatorsīs): give your players good reasons to come back to your site
- PS becomes every day more influential in the poker business: go out there and network with fellow affiliates or other people in the industry
But don't copy him okay?See you all around here on PAL.

Hi Geof,
I am honored to be mentioned in your blog.
Fellas, I have to say that working with Geof closely over the past years (VC, Bet365 and now PS) has given me lots of opportunities and helped me to become the affiliate I am now-a-days.
On the other hand, PokerStrategy is a great thing to promote and converts like crazy. I can personally recommend it!
Peace,
