I'm very pleased to report the eighteenth issue of the GPWA Times Magazine will be mailed out next week and was available at the Global Gaming Expo (G2E) iGaming Congress and at the GPWA cocktail party we held in Las Vegas last week.

GPWA Times Magazine - Eighteenth Issue Cover
In our cover Story, Lorien Pilling takes a hard look at what governments around the world are doing to tax and regulate iGaming. It's not the most glamorous topic, he tells us, but it is the most important by far - and affiliates need to keep current as proposed regulatory changes continue to proliferate.
And, on the topic of regulation, the Poker Player Alliance's John Pappas and the Interactive Media Entertainment & Gaming Association's Joe Brennon argue the prose and cons of federal vs. state regulation of iGaming in the U.S.; I. Nelson Rose tries to make sense of the failure thus far to pass Internet Gaming regulation in California; and Vin Naranayan offers some biting commentary on why there's more to regulation than tax policy.
Also in this issue: Paul Reilly (with a little help from William Shakespeare) encourages affiliates to cast aside their SEO fears and start reaping SEO benefits; our editorial team has some Facebook fun at Full Tilt Poker's expense; Sinead Lambert offers up some timely tips for sportsbook affiliates as the football (soccer) season starts; Jeremy Enke explains why poker affiliates, post Black Friday, must rebuild their online portfolio through strategic diversification, either into completely different niches or within the online poker market; a lively discussion on mobile gaming taken from the GPWA forums; and a new inductee into the APCW Wall of Shame.
This issue features five new affiliate interviews: graham from Toronto, casinoplanet from the Netherlands, robyroy from Bucharest, genich99 from Tel Aviv, and CasinoRecommender from Turkey. We also have an interview with Stephanie Johnson Gould of BetCroc Affiliates.
