It is with great excitement that I get to make this post......finally. Many of you may have heard the rumors or wondered why we have been working so closely with PAP. The following press release should explain it all. In a nutshell however, I have been involved in an acquisition to buy the PAW forums back.

I have also partnered with my good friends Warren and Greg, and will be physically moving just the forums to a PAP url. Don't worry, all the 301's are in place so it will be seamless. I have the utmost respect for the guys at PokerNews and will still be helping them grow the network. PokerAffiliateWorld.com is being re-designed and will focus 100% on running a kick ass network.

Long term, this is a GREAT thing for the overall poker affiliate industry. There is actually quite a bit more to this deal that I'm sure I'll write about later. For now though, here is the official release:

PokerAffiliatePrograms.com Announces Acquisition of PokerAffiliateWorld.com Forums and Network Partnership with PokerNews Ltd.>>

Poker webmasters and online poker operators are already familiar with the two most popular online poker affiliate resources. Today both companies are excited to announce the acquisition of the PokerAffiliateWorld.com forums by PokerAffiliatePrograms.com.>>

Two of the leading poker affiliate companies have made an exciting announcement today that will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the entire poker affiliate industry for years to come. On January 1^st, the world’s largest poker affiliate forum will be moving to a new home.

PAW forums have been acquired by PAP, and will be re-directed and hosted at www.pokeraffiliateprograms.com/forums. Nothing within the forums themselves will change -- all of the forums, categories, members, moderators, and posts will all remain in-tact and provide for an easy transition.

PokerNews Ltd. has retained the domain name PokerAffiliateWorld.com and will continue growing the network in both poker and other verticals on a brand new domain, which will soon be announced. Over the past year PokerNews Ltd. has built the largest and most successful poker affiliate network in history. They will focus on continuing to grow the network and offer more products/verticals for affiliates to profit from.

PokerAffiliatePrograms.com has also entered into a marketing partnership to help this network grow through its powerful brands both in the gaming and non-gaming sector that span online and offline.

Founder of the PAW forums, Jeremy Enke stated “This is an amazing opportunity for the entire poker affiliate industry and a win/win for both PAW and PAP. Each organization specializes in different areas of the market. This acquisition and partnership will allow the forums to thrive and become an even greater resource in the poker affiliate industry through newly-planned mediums. In turn, it will also allow the PAW Network to focus 100% on bringing the best value, deals, and payouts to its poker affiliates.”>>

The transition of the forums is expected to be a seamless process taking place on December 29th with the existing PAW forum URL’s and tabs simply being redirected to the new location. As of this date, Jeremy Enke will also be joining the parent company of PAP as General Manager of its Online Poker division. Greg Powell will remain onboard and has been named as the Marketing Director behind PAP. The poker affiliate forums will continue to be managed by Jeremy.

Together, this powerhouse team will continue to educate and represent poker affiliates world-wide. The management of the PAW Network will be taken over and managed by Mitchell Nunis of PokerNews Ltd. Any queries regarding this release should be directed to Jeremy Enke via telephone: (714) 421-8957.
