    Default Just another Newbie thread

    Hi guys,

    Just thought I'd drop by and introduce myself.

    I'm Carl, and I'm based In Birmingham UK.

    These past 9 months I have been self studying Seo, Ppc, social media and content marketing.

    I run my own local freelance marketing site and I have a few local clients under my belt.

    But I'm looking to steer away from client seo and start my own affiliate sites.

    I'd like to be brought up to speed and I'd love your guys help and resources on where to start.

    What's a good list of WordPress themes for me to look at?

    Could you point me in the right direction towards a few good writers?

    And I have a betting tips EMD that gets 3,800 searches a month. I'm not sure where to use it as google may slap the **** outta me for over optimisation if I over use the keyword.

    What's your thoughts?

    And finally. As I'll be marketing towards the UK.

    What betting affiliate sites do you recommend?

    Thanks guys

    You can also give me a follow on twitter @ carlashfield

    Welcome to the GPWA,

    I have approved your post from the moderation cue as it was automatically placed there when it contains links from new members.

    If you are looking for twitter or facebook swaps, there are some threads here for that.
    https://www.gpwa.org/forum/facebook-...ial-media.html

    All of your questions are answered here throughout the GPWA, you may have to dig a bit for them.

    When looking for writers, most of those posts will be in the "Other Marketing Offers" or "Chatter Box" and occasionally scattered in the Link exchange section.

    There are many threads scattered throughout the Chatter Box, Freshman Forum as well as the SEO section discussing themes as well as plugins and best practices for security.

    Be sure to browse the Unethical Behavoir section for tips on groups that have less then stellar reputations.

    Hey Rick,

    Thanks for letting me know as I couldn't see it earlier and I was about to start a new thread.

    I will have a little look around as I'm looking for a good quality theme to start with.

    Thank you. I just wondered as I'm going down the football (soccer) betting and accumulator route.

    Are there any plugins I can use?

    I can't post links but I am looking for plugins like the one in freesupertips.

    I know the guy probably is a member here.

    If he is.. Amazing site!

    EMD with 3800 searches per month is very little.. A word of advice.. forget just that one golden keyword.. if you are looking for tons of traffic then a EMD is not going to cut it.. you need to concentrate on what people want if it's accumulators then daily articles on up coming bets is much more worthy than one page with a plugin... which you could always set as a separate page and divert traffic too

    Hey wonder,

    Thanks for the info.

    Yeah I understand. I wontbreally be using it. I just wanted dome input in EMDs.

    I'm more than likely going to go with a brandable domain. So I can spread the link diversity.

    I'll create pages targeting keywords and like you said create daily articles, betting tips etc.

    I have been doing/studying Seo for a year now and I have my own freelance site and have 4 clients.

    But I'm new to the while affiliate side of things.

    I mean I earn a little from seo tools.

    But the sport side of things is new. I did play poker online for a good number of years. But that was around 5 years ago.

    I now have a family and playing for 8 plus hours a day wouldn't be a good idea.

    Thanks for the input. I've been scanning the forum and there's a lot to take in.. So I'll be floating around and probably posting a lot.

    Hello fellow Brummy.

    The theme's which will be suited to you are Flytonic Sports Betting Theme - give it a google.

    In terms of programmes, essentials for me - Bet365/Betfair/Coral/Ladbrokes/Unibet/Winner (Seems to have sorted stuff out now).

    As the majority of traffic is UK as your UK based and I assume you will be tipping mainly UK events, master Twitter and Social presence.

    GL.

    Oh hey bro.

    Good to connect Ejames.

    Yeah, I've had a look around. Some good themes. I'm really looking for some plug in to add accumulator odds etc.

    I love twitter and have a failrly big following due to being highly involved with seo and marketing.

    Maybe start another account based on football and poker and gain new followers.

    Not to put you off but there are so many people doing football tips/accas etc that it's going to be very competitive. These players are also notoriously hard to convert and the player value is generally very low.

    Do you have interest in any other sports?

    I use to be a massive poker player a few years ago.

    But due to having a family. I can't afford to play for 8 hours a day.

    I did think about a poker/staking site.

    At the moment, I run a site selling domains with DA & PA and I sell links but as I'm new I don't want to spam the forum.

    But all in all I want to do that along with an affiliate site.

    I have been looking around and like you said. Competition is huge!

    They said it's competitive for me also but my website was earning 4 figures after 6 months. Just build the site find the traffic and the rest will be history. It's a very simple formulae, just too many choose to over complicate it.

    I do like the look of scoop6 like football lottery.

    Maybe that could be a good angle.

    I know what your saying though. And congrats on making that money!!

    Yeah definitely mate, think outside the box, keep your football horse betting tips etc but then reach out to other areas, I've recently introduced American sports betting for UK punters eg betting on NFL and NBA and it attracts a lot of people.
