PokerAffiliateUniversity.com & New Marketplace

[Jeremy]

Hey guys,

I just wanted to fill everyone in on a few things going on here at PAL:

PokerAffiliateUniversity.com

Greg and I decided to launch a separate site from PAL(www.PokerAffiliateUniversity.com) where we can post comprehensive poker affiliate strategy in a setting that won't allow it to get buried in the forums. With that, if anyone is interested in writing or contributing to the University just let us know. You'll receive full credit and links.

I plan on getting back into writing and blogging on poker affiliate strategy, and this will be a perfect setting to do it. So check it out, and as always feel free to make any suggestions.

PAL Marketplace

One of the best parts of PAL is the free marketplace where affiliates can buy/sell/trade and do commerce amongst eachother. Lately however the marketplace has become somewhat unorganized since it was just forums. We will be integrating this new marketplace in the next few days, In the meantime you can see the beta here. The marketplace will be similar to sitepoint's marketplace and will allow you to list your items with pics, and have a starting bid as well as a BIN.

When your item gets bid on or bought, you will also have the ability to receive email notifications. We will continue building this to the specs of exactly what you guys want. Tommy is coding this, so please share any thoughts or suggestions.

Affiliate Heads-Up Poker Championships

Earlier this week I visited the guys from PAS in their office. Together we are going to host a kick ass Affiliate Heads Up Poker Championship. This will be a fun event and and we'll find out who the best heads up player is amongst all of you poker affiliate donkeys.

We'll come up with a killer prize as well for the winner similar to how we gave away dual monitors in our NCAA tourney. Stay tuned for more on this, and let us know if you have any ideas for the tourney or prizes. Likewise if any operators want exposure, feel free to contact us or sponsor a prize. Tony and I will be organizing this.

That's all for now, have a great weekend!

Quick question - will the itraders be passed over to the new marketplace?

I was thinking about suggesting this last week. Im very exited about the news, and look forward to the event

Hey Guys, we are pretty excited about finally getting this site launched. It's a domain that Jeremy has owned for a while now and it's always been sitting waiting for something (imagine that from affiliates). This is going to be more of a research and education site where myself, Jeremy and some of the veteran members here will be blogging and adding news. In addition to the articles you can check out the latest radio podcasts along with the new PAU twitter account. Come and leave a comment or two and feel free to throw out any suggestions you may have! Enjoy

I am also planning on doing some video blogging as well as sharing the developments of my new VB poker project at PAU. It should be exciting!

All of you are going down in the HU Tourny. Rawr!

And we do not have permission to view the new marketplace beta, or at least I don't.

Hey, that add in the bottom right corner, is that a WP plugin?

Tried to look at the beta - but I don't have sufficient privileges according to PAL!

As soon as I see Tommy back online I'll have him change the permissions on the marketplace.

You all should have access now.
