My respect to some affiliate programs

[worthy]

Probably, I should have done this sooner, but only came to mind yesterday.

The background:

Some affiliate programs close your account or charge a fee when you don't deliver a certain number of players for them.

However, there are affiliate programs with a quite different mindset.

I was absent from this niche for 9 years. When I started over about 16 months ago, I grabbed my old book where I kept my login details of that era.
I didn't even remember what casinos I promoted then.
I started randomly searching for affiliate companies that I worked with back then. Most of them were defunct. But a few are still alive and kicking.

The point:

There are a few which kept my account open and even have some money on my account after 9 years of inactivity. I think they deserve some positive publicity.

Here is the list of the programs in no particular order:

Rewards Affiliates
Mainstreet
Intertops
Slotland
Revenue Giants

Probably would be more but many old programs got defunct by now.

Thanks for that post, and to be honest, not a single one on your list surprises me, and every one of them is still worth working with today.

Definitely respectable operators to work with and you can add Deckmedia Affiliates (affiliate manager Paul is professional and very responsive), Jackpot Capitol Casino and Grande Vegas Affiliates to your list.

I agree. They are top.

I agree. No wonder that they are still around. And... with the same interface that they used 16 years ago.

My personal shout out to to MrAffiliate, Casumo Affiliates, HeroAffiliates and Olybet Affiliates.
Have old accounts there, never had any issues.

Currently working with some decent Affiliate Networks where we have all deals in one place and everything is taken care of (hit me up if you need more info).

Deckmedia have also been awesome ever since I started promoting them in 2008.

Thanks for the feedback. I think programs that give you the experience you've received , deserve the publicity. I will certainly join them.
@worthy, you got back in to the affiliate game 16 months ago, after a long time off? me too. I am getting back in now after 8 years working on other projects. How long did it take to dust off your sites and start making money again?

My guess is that Mr Affiliate part is likely to change.

The short list you pasted is part of the 20% we all happy to work with.
Like each market the gambling industry is divided to 80-20, 80 are the rest, and 20 are the honor ones, the long terms ones, the ones with good and responsive affiliate managers and so on.

Good topic BTW !

Hi WagerX,

It's much harder than I have anticipated. First, back then, I thought that it only takes to upload the old content that I still have on my HD. My old sites were mostly static Html sites. If I'm correct 2 or 3 were on CMS. I've lost them when Hostagor deleted my account without giving any warning in 2009 or 2010.

At that time all my sites were on Hostgator.

Anyway, I realized that my old sites look crap by today's standard. So I went for WP. I've chosen a minimal design theme for speed and copied my old content. I've thought that that will do.

Then, I've realized that old content is thin by Google's expectation and it is almost impossible to get backlinks and rank on the SERPs this time. Also realized that I have to learn many new technical and marketing staff that I haven't heard before.

So, it's much harder than in 2004. Back then it took me 6 months to get my first check.

Now, after 14 months I earned nothing so far.
However, I won't give up because I haven't got any better ideas for making some money. So, I'm adding content to the site and hope.

Hello.
My first affiliate ever was Bet365 before poker and betting being banned in Portugal. It was a really strong affiliate. I was using allopass too, to seel ebooks.
Today, i'm staring a new website, and i am trying to work with some new affiliate,s like starsaffiliates and crowdestor affiliates. (i dont think we talk about crowdfuning in our forum)
I see, i'm a very small guy comparing with some people here and i have more to learn than to teach here.

I work writing technical articles about football or poker, and showing to people ho they can win money understanding what they do at poker or football.

About your affiliates:
Reward affiliates looks very good, really. RevenueGiants looks interesting.
Thank you

Really important topic! We need to talk more about this. I was also interested in what affiliate programs have been playing for a long time and care about their authority, but the list is not so long. Thanks to the revelations of some responsible users of the GPWA, many will replenish their lists and worry less about making the right choice.


Respect to everyone who writes in this thread!

Me too, the first thing I am doing is dusting off old content. I've found that most of the brands I used to promote are no longer in existence. So, the reviews and content are irrelevant. I'm still going to publish them in the background of the site, just to have content. That could be wrong.

There is 1 program that has actually had money waiting for me. igamingpartners.com . I haven't received it yet, but I'm confident they will.

I wanted to hear that you started making money soon. lol Don't give up!

Totally agree with original post and those programs that are great to work with including:

Rewards Affiliates
Intertops
Slotland
Deckmedia
Casumo Affiliates
Casino Luck
ComeOn Connect
Genesis Affiliates

[casinogamespro]

After all these years in this business there is only one affiliate manager and only one affiliate program that deserved my respect - Renee and Rewards Affiliates. There are many other good aff managers and programs, but this is my choice number one.

[drifter8]

My top and honest performaing program since the first day are : bet365 and 1xbet.

There was one good affiliate manager in Dafabet long ago, but this was long ago

From the ones in my country : Palmsbet and WInbet deserve big respect.

[mickyfu]

Whilst I understand your post, isn't it a little sad that respect is being given to affiliate programs just because they pay you? How pathetic has the industry become when the ones who don't thieve off you are the good guys?

[ttt]

VeraJohn, Betsson, Betfred and Bet365 are the ones who did not screw me so far. The black list is much bigger

[yamadataro]

I think VeraJohn is a top affiliate site in Japan.
