Gambling affiliates
and how we make money. I touched on this
earlier but will now elaborate. What is
most important to know is that gambling
affiliates never cost the player
anything regardless of what kind of
payment commission plan they may be on.
It is said that the amounts earned from
each payment model all come out to about
the same in the end which I believe is
true for those payment plans that
provide residual income.
Gambling affiliates
need residual income because ours is an
extremely competitive industry. To
provide service you have to let people
know you exist and that can be quite a
hard endeavor in the online gambling
industry.
There are thousands
of websites, perhaps millions, all
competing for the top results returned
on keyword phrases such as "online
casino". The field of potential keywords
is very finite and as you can imagine
and all the bases are well covered and
the competition stiff.
Gambling portals will
bounce in and out of favor with the
search engines depending upon what
algorithm they are using to decide
their results for that month and during
those periods when a website falls out
of the top results the only way it can
sustain the dry spells is by having
residual income.
There are two
kinds of residual income models,
three if you count poker. The
first is a straight percentage
of income derived from any
player sent to the casino. I
remind everyone again this costs
the player nothing, as the money
would otherwise go straight into
the casino's pocket and in fact
does whenever a player joins
that casino by finding it
through a search engine, and
those players get nothing extra
but lose having a place to turn
for recourse if that casino ever
mistreats them in any way
because I assure you that Google
is not going to threaten to stop
returning that casino in its
results because you got
mistreated but that is quite
likely the scenario when you
sign up at a casino through a
reputable portal such as this
one. I will
not continue to send players to
an establishment which is not
treating people right.
The casinos
are aware that gambling
affiliates have online
communities, in fact they join
us for discussions and no casino
network wants a respected portal
owner to come in and start
claiming one of his/her players
was mistreated by their casino.
Since these establishments all
know where a surfer is arriving
from, they have the option to
choose to treat players arriving
from affiliate sites better than
those arriving from search
engines because those portal
sites represent literally
thousands of future players.
It is no
secret that in life, especially
business, those who can do the
most to increase a bottom line
are going to get preferential
treatment over the smaller sized
money. That's not to say the
smaller size money won't be
treated well, but it is just a
fact that those representing a
big difference in profit for a
company are going to get treated
better.
By choosing a
casino through a gambling
affiliates portal website, you
are essentially assuring
yourself of getting better
treatment
because each gambling guide and
casino portal are naturally
going to be sending more than
just themselves as sources of
income to the casino, therefore
they represent all the players
to have come thru that source in
the past, present and more
important the future.
Savvy players need only find a gambling
guide that appears to care, such as one
offering a cash-guarantee :), if you
absolutely must stray from my sites for
choosing a casino then please at least
make sure the portal site where you are
choosing the casino has a working email
address, better yet, make sure they
answer, because this is how you will
need to contact the portal owner if you
ever have problems with the casino.
Now isn't that nice to hear? Now you
have some where to go if the casino
support refuse to listen to your
problem, or if they freeze your
account with no explanation.
