Default Advertising Strategy

Hello,

I am going to launch the almost complete version of my website sometime this week.

I am scheduling to pay like a thousand of dollars to get hundreds of users to visit my online casino site everyday for a month.

Could anyone tell me the best strategy I should do:
- which casinos should I promote to get my money back?
- is there a way I can track which users actually deposit, I need at least a user name/login name?
- what other important aspects I should know?

Any advice is appreciated!

Your site looks great, Danny! I'm very impressed.

It is very tough to convert paid traffic (mainly because most sources are 90% fake traffic - sometimes 100%). Be very careful with this.

As far as who converts best, it is really very different for everyone. I convert well with: Brightshare (All Slots / All Jackpots Casinos), 400 Affiliates (Cocoa Casino / This is Vegas Casino), and have noticed that a new casino may convert rather well - Villento Affiliates (Rich Reels Casino).

You may want to give each of those a try and see how conversions are. I, personally, would limit the amount of Playtech casinos you launch with. Focus on maybe 1 playtech and then several Microgaming, Rival, and RTG casinos. That would be my 'winning strategy'.

This really scared me! But I don't have a choice do I? In order to make my site popular I must pay for the traffic.

I also follow your guide, I made tremendous change to my site to make sure it's search engine friendly.

But I think I still need to spend countless hours on optimizing the site.

I thought casino affiliate project was a quick and simple project, but it's well beyond my imagination.

I spend so much time for it already. I haven't got anything back yet. I hope that I'll break even within 2 months to pay for my advertising and other cost.

Anyway, thanks for all the advise Guard Dog. I'll try all the affiliate you mentioned. I hope it will convert.

I'll update the info with you guys...

bye for now.

The best converting method is to use the Search Engines as traffic for your site, but it does take time.

It took me 6 months to make any money the first time I tried in this business.

Now that I know a little more, I can convert traffic a little more quickly without paying for traffic.

Paying for traffic used to work really well, but I do not know anyone who is successful with it in this industry at the moment because the (quality) places that used to allow such PPC traffic no longer allow it
