2014 World Cup Who is Ready?

[Voids]

Hoping to capture any world cup accumulator traffic. First one so not sure if there will be any market!

Colossus Bets will be offering up to £100,000,000 in jackpots with a £10,000,000 Colossus pool or a £2,000,000 Pick 6 pool starting every day as of June 12.

They've also changed their welcome offer ahead of the world cup to a 100% match on first deposits + wager of the first deposit up to £100.

It's a shame Collossus Bets does not do lifetime commission, instead a sliding scale that decreases after 60 months of customer registration, and your payments are deemed inclusive of VAT, which will rule out any VAT registered business! Almost everyone who is VAT eligible pays VAT on top of earnings, so this makes them look a bit amateurish - they can claim it back anyway as they're a UK registered company.

Won't compete with the big boys with those sort of terms:

Thanks for your feedback webanalysissolutions - I'll relay it over to Colossus Bets and see if there is anything they can do based on your suggestions.

Have no idea why they wouldn't pay VAT. If they're truly based in the UK then they just claim it back. Suppose VAT doesn't affect a lot of affiliates a) who are non-UK based, and b) who don't have significant turnover to have to charge it.

One thing I would say - any rev share that isn't lifetime is sure to put off any savvy affiliate who takes the time to read T&Cs. In this competitive world the smaller outfits are competing for space against the likes of people like bet365, and it amazes me how some companies think they can get by without competing on terms. In fact, the smaller guys need to far exceed the terms of the big boys to even have a chance of being competitive, especially with the World Cup coming up in 4 weeks' time.

Andrew, I think we did discuss this back in 2013 when you were seeking affiliates.

I'm 99% ready

I just create a new site network (several domains/several languages). This is a new project, not only to the world cup.

I ask for help to complete the 1% remaining here https://www.gpwa.org/forum/do-you-wa...te-217590.html , so I expect have this ready on next 2 or 3 days

Beside this I also have my regular sport articles sites.

Let the Word Cup begin!

On a generic point - getting pages up and live early is key for SEO if you need to generate organic traffic and are not paying for it or have a big visitor base to feed off already. By early I mean even 12 months before the event.

That said, most sports bettors are pretty fickle and only look a short distance ahead. During the regular season people only look ahead a day or two. I'd say people won't really start thinking about betting on the World Cup until the Champions League final is over.

You've got to remember, if you've got $xxx sat in your betting account, you don't want to tie all that money up on long term World Cup bets when there's other events to bet on before that.

No chance of ranking for any keywords at this point, have a year old site with good content on but nothing major.

Contemplating doing a world cup offer page and putting some ads in local newspapers, Or maybe getting 10k Flyers made up and delivered around or something. anyone ever tried that?

We at Conquer Casino have an exciting promotion running for over a month! Check it out!

I think the risk in this is the lack of targeting, it's a real scatter gun approach that you have no idea will work (or how much it will work) until you've done it. That said, if you can get the flyers or ads done at low cost (and hence low enough risk to take the chance) then it could get some results.

After all, in theory you might only need a few signups/depositors to cover the cost and time. I'd say it really needs some careful thought around how much it would cost, balanced against a rough low end guess of what it might return.

A kind of business case if you like...but with a bunch of unknowns factored in.

[RacingJim]

I am officially not ready for the World Cup, recent Google updates have seen to that.

I actually own a few decent world cup domains but never got round to developing them so I'm not going to start now!

Might try some PPC.

Our World Cup infographic is really popular on Pinterest, so we are going to prepare more pictures like this. Social media is a great way to drive traffic to your website during the World Cup!

I'm going to do the printing , maybe cost about 300 quid alltogether for 10k plus delivery. If I get .01 % of that to sign up it should pay off in the end when you think about it

Italy wins the world cup! lol

Good thing about this approache is you target people that may not have thought about placing a bet, as opposed to trying to reach people who are seeking out a bet (and often have accounts at major bookies) would be interested to see how it works for you.

[webanalysissolutions]

One possible downside to this approach is the legalities of it. Depending on where you're going to do it you have to be careful to be seen to be targeting the right people and abiding by local laws. I know in the UK there are quite definitive guidelines http://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/advertising.aspx For example, you can't show gambling as a "lone" activity and a whole load of other rules and regs.

Stephen Hawking is ready.

He has a formula for scoring penalty kicks - velocity and placement, but comments on England placement abilities: "As we say in science, England couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo."

"European referees are more sympathetic to the English game and less sympathetic to ballerinas like Suarez"

"Contrary to tabloid opinion, the presence of Wags is irrelevant."

"England's chance of victory increases by a third when starting at 3pm local time and by a fifth if they wear red shirts, which psychologists in German found made teams feel more confident and appear more aggressive to their opponents"
