Here's the First Review Request

[SmackDog]

I have had this site for a while and still have more content to put up, but want to get some opinions on www.winonlinecasinogames.com.

I have recently been thinking of switching the site over to either joomla or wordpress as well so I can easily change / add things.

What do you guys and gals think?

I only took a quick glance so that's my disclaimer, but the structure and content as well as calls to action all seemed good in my opinion.

Are you asking for any specific critiques to improve a specific area? I've seen a whole LOT of really bad looking casino sites that rank and this is better in many areas than a lot but I'll digress to more experienced opinions.

I think the site overall is good and way better than many casino sites out there. Even though i dont really love the design i think the structure of the site is good. You have a decent amount of good content pages and menus that are easy to navigate. I think you should look into improving onpage seo.

I would definitely add some "play now" or "download casino" buttons...

You can see the kind of buttons I'm thinking of at the bottom of this post http://www.pokeraffiliatelistings.co...ml#comment3012

Front page
I would add a column to the table with the 5 casinos on the front page, and put something clickable in it with a call to action. Personally I'm experimenting with making it a picture of a button with the text "play now", so it stands a bit out from the other links on the page.

Casino bonus pages
Just to avoid confusion I'm going to link to one, since I'm not 100% sure what to call them:
http://www.winonlinecasinogames.com/...ayer_bonus.php
It would definitely add a button or link where people can "play at xxxxx casino now" or something like that.

Also, add a link to the review/download at the bottom of the page. I'm reading the whole page, I may very well have forgotten that there were a link to the review at the top.
Or you could add a link to the casino's own page about their VIP program..

Casino review pages
I would add a button with the text "download" or "play now" as well as a link to the casino's homepage in the list just to the right of the picture the casino at the top of the page.

And a link to the casino at the bottom of the page too.

Stategy and how to pages
I would add a box with the "recommended keno/blackjack/roulette/whatever casino" to each page. The people reading those pages are interested in playing the games, so tell them exactly where to do that

Like "Win online casino games.com recommends xxxx casino for keno".
Or you could list 3 casinos on each game page, and give them stars according to how good they are for playing that specific game.
Or you could list 1 casino on the game page, and add a link to a new "best casino for %game%"-page, where you have 1 paragraph for each casino with some words about the game and a star rating related to either the casino or how good it is to play the game at that specific casino.


Despite all my ramblings, I actually like the site

Funny because my thoughts when we first started a year ago was the same...and now thinking about all the ugly sites I have seen I think my impression of the casno niche was very naive in the beginning.

[Newjabber]

This is a very nice site. Clean and easy navigation and a very simple nice design.
Yes the calls to action needs to be improved, i agree with that.
Also, i would make you logo link to the main page, i personally really like when i can always click on a sites logo and be returned to the main page.

Also on a page like this:
Win Blackjack Games - Winning Blackjack Strategy - Blackjack Tips

I really dont think you need 2 banners in the text.
A picture of some kind helps alot i think, and apart from that just use text links.
There are already a banner on each side.
Some of your pages have pictures and some dont, i would add a banner or picture to all the pages like here:
Online Blackjack

But yeah the most important right now is more calls to actions on the main page and all other pages, rules reviews etc.

[SmackDog]

Thanks everyone for the advice. I'm going to get going on some new calls to action for sure on the most read pages.

I'm also wondering if anyone has any good keywords they are targeting in the casino niche so far?

Thanks.

Nice site / But I would change the colors and maybe logo.

[wjb316]

I'm not qualified to say what works and what doesn't work yet but I'd definitely like to see the logo link to the home page.
