Poker Referral Issue

[Fearless_Gamer]

Hey GPWA,


I new here and have a question:

Poker niche skin site, I own a small website in my local area and have some problems with people that do not register under my agent.

I got nice organic traffic from people search "how to deposit to XX" but I sure they already got an account, for now, I only show them the way to deposit (being a nice guy - its wrong I don't generate cash :/)

People need to open an account under my agent (ref) and deposit, and there is no problem with validation like Pokerstars, anyone can open how many accounts they want.

What will not work: give them free cash - they can open a new account every time).

Any suggestion on how to force the audience to open a new account under me?


Thanks,

P.S.
Also, I very good with SEO and PPC so I will try to help other people here

I would never promote an operator that allows players that "can open how many accounts they want."

So why should anyone play more then once under you, they can just go open another account under someone else.

After a player opens an account under another affiliate, why should you get credit for that player opening a new account under you? How do you feel if all your players stop playing under your affiliate account, and go open accounts under another affiliate?

Sup Universal4,

Thanks a lot for answering me.

I know its suck to take other players, but correctly this is the way, and I will win it (believe me, It's 50% ok, 50% not - too much complicated and lots of details) it's like the wild west here.

Currently, this what I have and I need to improve my funnel or something like this - organic traffic already have now I need conversions.

Maybe those players will return to their "first" affiliate, but how I said previously its complicated LOL.

Lately, I open IG and trying to generate some conversions from there, maybe even get some worldwide players, but I don't want to give up on the organic traffic...


Thanks,

Sorry, it is NOT ok, either for the affiliate nor the operator. How would you feel if 100% of your players move to another affiliate?

It is pretty much bonus fraud. Operators offer a welcome bonus to introduce NEW players to their sites and games, NOT so they can allow affiliates to steal players and have to pay CPA's/Hybrid payments over and over for the same players.

So I will agree with you that it's NOT ok for the affiliate (it's fine with operator), what the next thing I should do?

If I keep the pages that give the information on how to deposit to ABC, players that have accounts will know how to deposit, and I will not get paid for it. (because they already have their affiliate).

Second I can remove those pages from my website, and those players that have accounts will not play at this moment.

Any suggestion?


Thank You,

P.S.
I can't publish lots of content\ get backlinks to rank higher, why? Let's say that's just the way it is.
But, I can generate traffic from IG.

yeah, focus on keywords that will convert. it's easy to rank for keywords that won't convert, but you won't make a living out of that.

This is really crappy way to make money, also its a loss/loss situation. Sure you may make the user to register new account via your link today, but tomorrow someone else will steal it from you. Not to mention that there is no poker room that would allow deposit/withdrawals to same payment methods from different account, at least not one that you should want to work it. If you rank for say "poker-room login" - try to push another operator on that page - for example with pop up showing some huge bonus..
