Back to basics, best sites for rev. share

[nojunkfood]

I use to have this belief that if I advertised unknown sites id do extremely well because few players have accounts on them. And yes, they pulled in a decent amount of players. But now looking at the stats basically none of the players on those sites have became valueable.

On the other hand I give little exposure for some bigger brands and according to the stats have had great results with them.

So my questions is in all it's simplicity and complexity: What are the best sites when using revenue share?

Here are my thoughts:
- If you dont offer rakeback, no-one else should be able to offer it in that room either.
- In the case of a poker network, if you are not offering rakeback it shouldnt be easy for the player to open an account at another site in the network and you should stick to advertising the major brands that also offer casino and sports betting.
- Decent size player pool.
- Preferabely stand alone site.

So we come down to:
FullTiltPoker
Party Poker
Everest Poker
Major ongame skin
Bodog

Anything else?

Well, both Full Tilt and Bodog are rakeback rooms, wasn't that a variable you didn't want?

I'd personally add Pacific Poker on that list too - although rakeback is available there too for those who look hard enough.

At Bodog the rakeback is not openely advertised and apparently is it hard for people to open a new account for rakeback purproses. Full Tilt is so big that I assumed that some people might play there even without rakeback.

Well then I'd add Pacific to that list, maybe LuckyAce, and a microgaming property like Unibet, and a major ipoker skin like Mansion or Sun Poker?

[UkPokerGrinder]

I would add Betfair Poker,Betfreds(Ipoker),Ladbrokes(Microgaming) to that list

All got SportBooks and have a good strong brand name

[MJ]

Ladbrokes is Ipoker now I do believe, and Betfair is definately a rakeback site but I would add them too as the cross promotion potential is nice as Ukgrinder mentioned.

Yeah Betfair might be worth trying, Ladbrokes maybe too. I used to advertise BetFred for a while, but the whole "We have a promotion code field, but your players shouldnt use it... and neither should they really search for it as they will end up signing up under other affiliate" is annoying and weird.
