How to get gamling traffic on YouTube. I share my best practices.

[Robbie Billiams]

Hi people!
I immediately inform you that under the video below there are referral links to online casinos. This is by no means an advertisement to make money. The goal is completely different! Let's put it this way: this insider information is obtained from our own projects.

A small retrospective.
A few years ago, my entire team had experience streaming on YouTube and Twitch. It was an experiment, we understood little. But the topic "Streaming games in online casinos" was very popular at that time, and the project was on the rise. Everything turned out, but there was very little profit)! It was a Russian-speaking audience. In parallel, we launched streams in online casinos for an English-speaking audience; This project failed due to poor language skills.

Our streamers played for real money in online casinos, unlike many who deceived their viewers and played for free!

Then, after closing projects for streams on YouTube and Twitch, I continued to study YouTube, namely, I began to produce video content.
My level of knowledge in the gaming industry grew with each new video review of a casino or slot machine. The number of views has increased, subscribers have appeared on the channel, and now registration and making profit in affiliate programs has begun.

The average time for YouTube’s channel withdrawal for profit is 1 year. This is twice as much time to profit in other niches such as travel. But in our business, speed is not important, stable growth is important, which does not require the cost of hosting and buying a domain. Correct me if I am wrong)!

The first YouTube channel we invested in was The Gambler Bay In parallel with the creation of content in The Gambler Bay, a video content channel was also filled. Now 34K views and 100 subscribers. At the same time, we get referrals to the main site that Google prefers.

YouTube channel statistics here. The graph shows a steady increase in video views. Now 50 views per day, an envelope with such a small traffic can be different, it all depends on a number of factors. Quality of content, disclosure of topics, geo.


Another YouTube project is High n Roll. This channel, or rather its content, I like the most))! The channel is not accompanied by a branded site, the usual landing page provided by one aggregator of affiliate programs is riveted.

This project started later than the previous one, but the dynamics of the number of views is slightly better. The traffic envelope is stable. Registration and deposits are. Last year, this channel brought more than $ 1,000 and increased in price.

Here are the statistics of High n Roll. Statistics show that there are almost twice as many visits - about 80 visits per day. The content is focused on Australia, but transitions to online casinos show different countries. Popular 3: AU, CA, USA, of which there were deposits.

An example of these two projects shows that they differ not only in appearance, but also in the difference in the point of impact on the audience. High n Roll is more narrowed in geography, and therefore it will be better to convert!

I would like to show a third example, this is a pure experiment, and it has just begun. He has fewer visits per day, but the prospect is already visible. VR Casinos the content that is posted there is 360 videos. Slots, online casino reviews, bonuses.

Here are his statistics, recently there has been an increase in visits

To summarize, I want to say that if everything is done correctly, you can make money on YouTube channels no worse than on sites, or at least supplement your site, this also works!

Here is such a small insider, I hope it was useful, write your questions. It is very interesting to know your opinion.

Regards Robbie!

thanks for sharing your data - very interesting to see #s !

aren't you worried that it could be a mistake to build your house on rented land, which can (and probably will) get snatched away by Youtube (who are canning a lot of igaming streamers' accounts). Is self hosting these things an option, or do you need to rely on social discovery via YT to drive eyeballs ?

Thank you my friend for the question)!
Of course, this is not a stable platform, but if you do not become arrogant and try to follow the rules, you can receive traffic for a very long time.
It’s also important to create unique copyrighted material, rather than using other people's videos precisely because of people's complaints, very often they close the YouTube channel.

I suffered a lot of defeats on YouTube before I realized this game. But to be honest, I duplicate the contents in the archive. And, of course, all channels should be accompanied by a blog or website where you can safely create your content much more intensively!

Interesting. I'm wondering how you've avoided the channels being shutdown when you're breaking Youtube Terms & Conditions by having affiliate links in your descriptions.

This question interests me too, remember, I wrote above, these are all my experiments, and today I am gradually killing shortened links and publishing a link to the site.

And even if I fail, I will have a clear understanding of what level of popularity you can achieve and how much you can earn on it. Understanding this, you can artificially control what depth to swim in order not to be detected by the YouTube algorithm for a long time!

How about the stolen artwork logo?

[Robbie Billiams]

I do not understand what theft is?
What hurts you so much in the logo? What kind of logo are we talking about?

Hello! Glad to see you in this thread. Of course, big winnings are possible, but, as a rule, this event should be accompanied by a news feed on your YouTube channel.
Are you interested in a YouTube channel development strategy? I can share my observations in private messages

Publishing links here is not entirely correct, and I respect these GPWA rules.
