Would be interested to compare figures with my fellow webmasters - So how many casinos did YOU add / dump in 2015?
Please vote and/or tell us about it!

Despite setting higher entry limits, I still find myself adding a lot of new casinos each year.
Added:
This year (so far) I added 26 casinos - and I expect to add a couple more before the end of December. o_O

Added and Dumped in the SAME year!
Unfortunately not all the new additions worked out OK, and I had to dump 4 of them within a matter of months. They were...
Lucky Spins (RTG) for not paying me and then disappearing.
Golden Lady (Rival) for not paying me in a reasonable time. (They did pay in the end)
Spin Empire (NetEnt/Multi) for completely cocking up their welcome bonus terms.
Gorilla Casino - for showing Betsoft games in the casino lobby - but not actually having ANY games from this software!

Dumped:
For rogue stuff or just generally being a total waste of web-space = 9 Casinos (Including the 4 above).
Most notably...
Sky Vegas: Despite promoting them for 7 years, they thought it was OK to STEAL 80% of my commission from the 100's of players I referred there. (Dropped from 25% to 5%). Total scum-bags! :mad:
Ladbrokes: Despite promoting them for 9 years, they thought it was OK to start imposing NCO on me when I had not had this applied to my account at any time previously. This meant I earned $0 after Jan 2014. :(
Sunset Slots: Despite being THE most popular and best earning Rival casino on my site for 2 years, some idiot decided they would switch to Top Game software and expected no change in player activity! :eek:

I hope next year is a bit smoother...
Though to be honest, I need to get my Christmas axe out and chop off a load more dead wood - I'm sure I could get rid of another dozen or so if I really put my mind to it!

I voted 1-4. We added casino sites like the Red Stag brand but that is different because it is a Deck Media brand. We dropped more online casinos in 2015 than in 2014. In 2014 we dropped the revenue jet brands. In 2015 we dropped the affactive brands plus several others. Overall we dropped a lot of brands.

Voted. Added many, took of about 4 I think.

Btw, related question on the topic - when you remove that casino, what do you actually do? completely remove the page?
Depends if it is a site link. Also you could keep the page and label it rouge

We removed 4-5 casinos that went rogue in 2015, but we've added over 25 different brands.

Well as promised, I've got my Christmas chopper out! :rolleyes:

Just dumped these 4 Playtech-based Sports operators:
BetFred, Tote Sport, Boyles and Paddy Power = all a total waste of time from the casino promotion point of view.

Next...!
