It's clear that your native language is not English right? Where are you from helpyou? You may have a better chance of converting if you make webpages in your own language targeted to your own country. I imagine it is hard and expensive to make content on a foreign language.

Maybe it's the fundamental target group you need to change in order to be more convincing? Just an idea, I could be wrong.

I don't see anything obviously wrong with your site, you just need to keep working at it. Add new regular content and keep plugging away - I'm sure you'll start making money soon.

You may also want to review the casinos you advertise and change them around to see which ones work best for you.

I also notice that the news items on your blog link to other portal sites or directly to casinos without any affiliate tag. This isn't going to do you any good as the site much direct a good percentage of its traffic the blog or news section. You may also want to add more to this to keep things fresh.

Once you get a few players spending money it seems to get easier so keep doing what your doing and don't give up.

You do well with SEO - I've seen your site turn up in numerous searches, so that side of things is ok. So the issues are more likely to be with the content when visitors arrive at your site.

I'll say what I see when I visit - to help, not to criticise:

1. The url is onlinexcasinos, but the site logo says 'Online Game'. It's a small thing but it may put a few people off.

2. The home page seems to be written for search engines, not visitors. All those hyperlinked keywords don't entice me further into the site. Make it more personal. Your global navigation links into the site. The welcome blurb doesn't need to.

3. Your home page has Rushmore as one of your top casinos, but Rushmore don't feature in your list of top casinos. Do you promote them or not?

4. You cloak your hyperlinks. Whilst it can be good to hide your affiliate links, I think visitors use the status bar to see where they'll go if they click. Personally, I don't like being tricked into visiting a casino so I like to know if the link will take me to a review or straight to the casino.

5. The casino reviews themselves are good - quite detailed and separated into logical sections. But there are some inconsistencies. For example, at the bottom of the Rushmore review it says 'info: Roxy Palace' and at the bottom of the Rushmore 'Details' page it says 'Visit Spin Palace'.

6. The overall look of the site is good. I like the colours and the design but some of the 'finishing touches' let it down a little. eg the 'visit casino' and 'download' icons seem a little cheap, like you've copied them from other sites and they don't quite match. Spend a little time (10 minutes should do it) re-designing the icons so that they have the same theme - colours, borders, shadows, whatever.

7. There are some very useful sections eg the payment solutions and gambling dictionary are comprehensive and have clearly taken a lot of time and effort. But that effort isn't represented by the home page so you may not get traffic that deep into your site.

8. Your English is ok, but not quite up to scratch for English-speaking visitors. I'd highly recommend getting someone to proof read and edit your copy. It won't be cheap, but if you start with your high traffic pages you may see some results. If nothing else, get your home page rewritten.


In my opinion (though I'm far from being an expert) your site is good and should perform better than it clearly does. But a little work could go a long way. Step back, put yourself in the mind of your 'ideal' visitor and view the site through their eyes. Be completely unbiased and honest with yourself. Forget what you want them to do - ask yourself what they want to do.

Hope this is useful.

Sorry to hear this helpyou. I have seen over the 2 years you've been here that you have worked hard on it.

I am unable to view the source. Not sure if you have it blocked or it's just me. BTW, I used a script once to block the source and ended up blocking google too. Ouch. Use caution if anyone is doing this.

My advice is to re-read all the great advice you have gotten from some of the best webmasters there is during your time here. Like the ones that replied above. When I was starting I read the entire freshman forum (50 pages). There is so much valuable info here.

I wish you the best of luck and hope it turns around for you soon.
