    Sportsbook affiliates are starting to earn considerable affiliate income by their casino affiliate revenue along with their sportsbook affiliate revenue. What helps set sportsbook affiliates different than the regular Joe Blogs casino affiliate is their uncanny ability to bring in high rollers/whales and the true casino VIP player. This is particularly true to many of the affiliates which we have personally spoken with and down to the ability of the sportsbook affiliate to understand the casino tournament scene which is rarely offered to the casino gambler by the regular casino affiliate.

    Casino gamblers are much like sportsbook gamblers and enjoy the opportunity to believe that they are adding a little skill into their game play. What is a better way to offer this than running blackjack tournaments/slots tournaments etc...

    This is a great way YOU as a sportsbook affiliate can achieve great results as a casino affiliate. SBComm advises all sportsbook affiliates at least to offer a section on their portal about casino gambling.

    SBComm offer a wide selection of Sportsbooks offering a casino affiliate program, and you can find out more for yourself by visiting Casino Affiliate Programs.

    Top Tip for Becoming a Casino Affiliate

    Understand the casino tournament scene and remember the majority of sportsbook players love to play on slots followed by Roulette so focus on these areas on your website and also add special articles about winning at blackjack or slots.

    Start working with the casino affiliate programs and offer special promotions around blackjack and tournaments for your sportsbook players and you will be amazed with the conversions.

    Finally good luck making money as a casino affiliate and remember to also focus on craps and other table games.

    Premier League has kicked off

    The Premier League in the UK has kicked off and this is one of the biggest sports betting money makes for UK based sportsbook affiliates. Blackpool winning its first game came as a surprise to the punters and resulted in the bookmakers making considerably more profit than they expected on the first day of the new premier league season.

    The majority of affiliates expect to make money by in-play betting which proved to be a success last year and resulted in more books making their websites accessible by mobiles with more betting options during the games. So maybe the .mobi will do well? Who knows, but what I do know that the next 8 months will surely be a winner to affiliates.

    The UK recession is nearly over according to the economists and this alone results in more disposable income which is ending up on online sites and bookmakers across the UK. My advice this season if you want to do well is target the main key terms on Google and get your websites ranking high.

    The key terms for the premier league and ones that should convert well in my own opinion are;

    Premier League Betting
    In-play betting
    Premier league odds to win
    Premier league bet
    Football bet
    where to bet on the premier league

    There are many more key terms and by no means is this the main list. Maybe target key teams such as Newcastle United, Stoke City etc...

    Good luck in making money this season from gamblers betting on the Premier League!

    Make use of Live Lines on your Site

    Unlike the regular affiliate industry within the gambling sector, is it advisable that sportsbook affiliates (also known as sports betting affiliates) utilize the use of adding live lines to their website. A live lines comparison tool is an excellent way to show your members the different odds offered by the different gambling outfits.

    Odds provided by the sportsbooks

    The live lines that are promoted on affiliate websites generally are provided to the affiliate in XML format or frame-based format. The Sportsbooks responsible for allowing the live lines generally compile the lines themselves using the lines team (the odds setters) which are employed by the sportsbook themselves. Some of the smaller outfits who cannot afford a lines maker for each sector tend to use a supplier such as DonBest to feed them the lines and once given they will check the lines and then make them live for their members to view.

    It is also common practise for Sportsbooks to offer different odds and limits based on the player’s history, and for this reason gamblers like to shop around and use non-bias sports betting portals as a place to view the available lines. Odds comparison websites do make serious profits for the affiliate.

    Live Lines provided in iFrames

    Adding live lines to your website in iFrames is a simplier option to the novice affiliate, however by doing so it is normally set to a particular brand and doing the comparisons is not an option. The iframe live lines are normally provided in a table 500 pixels wide by about 1,000 pixels in height which sits nicely within any page of the site. Bodog, BetUS and SPORTSBETTING.COM among others are some affiliate programs which provide live lines to their affiliates in this format.

    So you think you are ready for Football

    A nagging question everyone has been asking me is if I am personally ready for the upcoming football season. The answer to that question is ... well... you could say yes... or you could say no...

    The internet is a forever changing environment and with a great reliance on Google search results I am constantly article writing. Once I finish one article I quickly need to move over to the next and so on.

    To be ready for the 2010/2011 NFL season bettors it is important to have strong links going to your site, constantly updated content as well as fresh links. For this I have focussed mainly on the main keyword links which I consider the money links this football season.

    The key terms to target include;

    Sportsbetting
    NFL Bet
    Football Bet
    College Football Betting
    College Bowl Betting    		 NFL Betting
    Football Betting
    Sports Betting
    Online Sportsbook
    Sportsbook Bet
    I myself tend to steer away from targeting keywords such as lines or odds as I have seen a lesser conversions. However I have not noticed this being true for everyone and I have seen some conversions for affiliates being very strong on these SEO keywords.

    To summarize you have less than a month to get your site in shape for the upcoming football season, and remember September is the money month so don’t miss out!

    Common Pitfalls of Sportsbook Affiliate Marketing

    It goes without saying that there is indeed a lot of money to be earned by being involved with the sportsbook affiliate market. There are some giants within the sportsbook affiliate arena including and not limited to SportsbookReview, MajorWager, DocSports and The RX. All these mentioned sportsbook affiliates cater specifically towards US focused sporting events. However the European market has it fair share of successful affiliates and found live streaming and bonus based affiliates to perform the best.

    It is important to keep in mind before getting involved in the sportsbook affiliate arena to know exactly what market you are going to target and what you are going to offer them which is different than the other affiliates.

    Far too many affiliates say statements like ‘my site will be the best and have the most users who all visit my forum’, ‘I have a database of 1,000 players who will sign up through me, what you going to offer?’

    The majority of affiliates fail within the first year of setting up and this goes for sportsbook affiliates as well. Why they fail is due to having unrealistic expectations and not having a goal. There goal is to simply ‘make as much money as they can’ without understanding the market.

    If you are going to be a successful sportsbook affiliate it is vitally important that you do the following;

    1. Decide and understand the market you will target? NFL bettors? Bonus hunters?
    2. Focus on what you do. Just FOCUS! Rather than try and do everything become an expert in one or two areas.
    3. Diversify – even though you are focused do spend sometime to diversify into other sporting events occasionally without loosing FOCUS!
    4. Offer your audience an experience rather than simple sales blog. Give them something special like handicapping tips, best bets explained etc.
    5. Don’t give up as you are looking at a year from starting to seeing a significant return in investment.

    Having said all that remember there is still a lot of money to be earned in sportsbook affiliate marketing so don’t give up and give it a go!
