Soccer terminology

[gooderpoker]

I am setting up a soccer portal and have a few questions on what people look for.

For the following list of search terms is there another way of saying that is commonly used? For example "online sportsbook" is often search as online bookmaker in Europe

do these phrases have alternate search terms?;
betting odds
betting picks
results

Tricast, Each Way, forecast, out right win, accumulator, scorecast, double treble, yankee and a trixie just to name a few off the top of my head

i think i miss read your thread lol - do these phrases have alternate search terms?;
betting odds - football odds
betting picks - double, treble or accumulator depending how many you woud like to bet on.
results - is just results.

sorry ignore my betting terms above

I notice a lot of soccer sites use the term "Betting Tips" or "Tips" rather than "Betting Picks"...

[suffolkpoker]

how would you describe the term "betting picks" your side of the atlantic?

To me its to pick winners, not look for tips on how to bet imo

[Scott]

If I searched Google for "Betting Picks" I'd expect to find sports picks... I just notice a lot of soccer sites use the term "Tip" rather than "Pick"...

--

For example, rather than "Soccer Picks" or "Football Picks" they use "Soccer Tips" or "Football Tips"..

a hot betting tip, would be a dead cert to win. i would agree with that. Its been a long day, im off home lol

Just use the term football more than soccer

betting odds < match odds < team name v team name odds < august 28th - 31st football odds
betting picks < Match tips < football tips < team name v team name predictions < 3 football tips for august 28th - 31st games
results < match result, football results

Different types of bets can be seen at paddy power, they all are pretty much the same only the normal weekend games during the season have 100+ different types of bets to do.

I always thought it would be easy to make a high traffic site if you picked one team that's popular in your country, use there nick name, your location type of thing, write story's, then down the line add a free bets section, best sites to bet on my team section etc.. Of course you would have to keep putting story's on there to build the traffic but if you had the time I imagine it wouldn't be to difficult.
