    Hello,

    I have a bit of wordpress experience, i want to make a Dutch and German affiliate site like:
    casinoshark.com or peppercasino.com

    What wordpress themes are these sites using?
    How long does it take to get in google?
    Somebody has similar websites?

    Regards

    Hi Hen,

    Welcome.

    Flytonic makes some easy to use affiliate wordpress themes geared towards gambling. In my opinion they will do fine for starting affiliates.

    To get "in" Google is not so hard, it will usually take a few days at most to get a page indexed by Google, sometimes even a few hours. The trick is to get your pages to rank high in Google.

    Do you mean affiliate sites? I would guess at least 80% of the visitors of the Affiliate forum are affiliates and own one or more affiliate sites.

    I would recommend to use as simple themes as possible. I started out with flytonic but it's kind of limiting yourself. Start clean and figure out what you want then google how to execute it as there is maany people that have probably wanted the same before. Also welcome to the forum

    Hello hen,

    Welcome to the forum.
    I don't want to sound rough or anything but...
    My advice is to not start.
    If you are not experienced with wordpress and not experienced with gambling and don't have a gun to your head, do not start a gambling portal.
    It is too much hard work, too many grey areas, too competitive and the money is not that great as you hear it is. Not for the average Joe at least.
    I got into the gambling world out of passion and now just try to figure out how to better monetize. But I would never start a gambling portal as a means to make money. Not these days at least.

    In my opinion it is all about focus and determination. If you really want to build a solid business, there are always ways to make it work, but you have to be willing to work hard, be prepared to learn and not be afraid to ask questions. When I started I knew absolutely nothing about the business or wordpress (or even how to insert a link!) but after a couple of years my sites are starting to show some great results through hard work, trial and error and determination. If you want something to succeed, if you really, really want something to succeed, you can make it work. But you must take action. Not in a week, not tomorrow, today. Set up a wordpress site, write quality articles (at least 2-3 a week), seek some good affiliate partners, get some organic traffic going and you will make money. How much is entirely up to you.

    I totally agree with what you say.
    However this holds true for every endeavor in life. If the OP has no connection or love with site creation or gambling, why put all this effort in a gambling portal and not somewhere else?

    IMHO all this effort you describe should go into a field where one has a passion or knowledge. Then dedications comes more naturally. You can't just pick a niche only for the money potential and make a successful website by sheer effort. At least it never worked for me like that.

    That is very true. It does help a lot to have passion for what you write about. I know it helps me. The OP has not responded at all to this thread yet, so maybe he has already decided this business is not for him and moved on to other fields. That always bugs me at bit. Why start a thread if you are not even going to react to responses?

    Hello Hen and welcome to the forum.

    1. What wordpress themes are these sites using?

    I would recommend flytonic wordpress themes.

    How long does it take to get in google?

    Google indexes pages very quickly, but ranking in google is another story.
