    Thumbs up Check My Site Please

    Hey guys,
    I was wondering if any of you could give me a thumbs up or a thumbs down on my NFL Sports Betting*|*NFL Sports Betting | Football Wagering | Football Pools | Survival Pools | Free NFL Betting | NFL Picks | Top Sports Books | National Football League.
    I am not a webmaster but my partner is and he has taken it upon himself to add ads not related to sports betting to that site along with adbrite and a few other things that almost make me cry and I would like to see some comments from my friends about that site about whether it was a good or bad idea.
    I hate it so much that I even threatened to shut it down if that stuff wasn't removed so your thoughts will be welcome.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Hi Ken,

    Nice to see you around.

    The site is a little dark for my taste, but the overall design is good.

    I'm not much in favor of putting lots of different ads up that are not related to the overarching topic of the site, so if it were me I would drop the dating ads, etc. That said, it all comes down to performance. If the ads are making you money, then it is totally reasonable to keep them up there. If you feel the ads are hurting your search engine rankings and/or if they are not converting for you anyway, then that would be good reason to take them down. Otherwise, if you are doing ok in the SEs and you are making money -- it's like the old saying goes, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    Hi Ken,

    Christine from Hollywood Sportsbook here.
    I was just taking a look at your site and noticed that the Hollywood Banners were a bit unclear so I emailed some links to re-sized versions that match the format being used on the site.
    If your webmaster ever needs any banners re-sized or additional content please feel free to contact me.

    I'd also like to know what the outcome is on the debate to include or not to include non - sports related adds.

    best,

    Christine

    Hi Christrine,

    I replaced those banners and don't see much difference but thanks for asking about the unrelated content question. I own the domains and have been around the block with several partners to help me for a 50/50 cut for several years and that has inlcuded sportsbooks in exchange for what I used to be good at which is linking sites. Unfortunately, I have lost that ability or Google just doesn't put much credence to it any more but at one time in thew past my Top rated and reviewed internet sports betting and online wagering websites | Sport Betting Links was in the top five on google for the search terms of betting, sport betting and sports betting with a PR5 and due to things beyond my control which include one of my partners servers going out of business who was also hosting my sites in that deal went down. Sadly, not knowing what to do, my only option was to search for partners to help me and I have gone through a few who have ended up leaving due to time constraints or other reasons but the webmaster partner I have now, who is not familiar with betting sites and is my partner with other non related gambling sites insists that what he calls is cross selling is the way to go and all of sudden I got every thing from from Amazon.com to clicksor and even adult sites.
    I just wanted an answer here to my question about that as my thoughts are that related content is KING!

    IE: If you sell CASINO, you stick to casino or if you sell enhancment pills, you do that????

    It's after two in the morning now and I'm having a hard time competing my thoughts so have a great Holiday.
