    Default Please Review My Site

    Hey guy's

    I'm new to this Forum and gaming niche, but not to affiliate marketing in general.

    I would appreciate it if you guys could review my site and be as brutally honest
    as you want, as I am always looking to improve in everything I do.

    Constructive criticism can only be beneficial to me.

    Thanks in advance

    Can't see a lot wrong with it, and fwiw it covers subject matter well. But it's the same that has been done a thousand times.

    Now that's obviously a winning format (or so many would not be following it), but I'd have thought that for it to do well it has to be better than the competitors who are already successfully running the same stuff, many of whom will already have a strong foothold.

    If you can get traffic (either from rankings which I suspect will be difficult, or from other streams which you may have in mind) then most likely it will convert the same as others do.

    Like Chaumi say's its another top"5" casino site. reviews are generic and just list info instead of actually reviewing casino, affiliates are way to lazy nowadays and very few have any creativity I would spruce it up and actually make it exciting to read.. think like a reader not an affiliate. add something fresh to your site to give them a reason to come back, it's amazing that nobody actually cares about return visits in this industry which is a big mistake, quality content is not just about correct spelling but feeding information to hungry minds to get ahead in this saturated business you have to be unique.

    I appreciate the comments WonderPunter, and yea typically a lot of review sites are similar but I guess you are kinda
    limited to what you can do without distracting away from what it is, an affiliate site.
    I will mix up the info for the visitors

    Yep, nice looking site. On your Home page I would put the top 5 casino table higher up above the text or at least after the first paragraph. Most people aren't really interested in a long introduction about the purpose of your site. On my Mac that table is below the fold.

    Good start, well done.

    As already said by other user the primary gol is differentiate the content of site. Nowadays there are many many site that speak about poker room review (most of them is presentation not review) etc, is all the same, and climb the serp with new site is not so simply. The design is simple and clean all ok.
    For example an idea for the content is a video for signin up the poker room, most of the user isn't skilled with internet, web, form etc. This is only a example.

    bye.

    I love the color combinations, design and layout. Does the site use geo-targeting so that US visitors will see the top 5 US online casinos, while the UK visitors will see the top 5 UK online casinos, etc?

    Your website looks great, but your backlink profile is in really bad shape.

    Right now there are a lot of spammy websites linking to your website which means that it's going to be really hard to rank it in Google in it's current state.

    Right now you have a Trust Flow of 0, with a Citation Flow of 21. This is really bad in the eyes of Google. It basically means that Google does not Trust your website as a valuable source of information and it will not rank it. You can take a look at the Domain report here...



    You might not have been the person to build spammy backlinks, but someone has. Possibly someone who owned the website before you? If I were you I'd order a backlink report on your domain and Disavow all the spammy links in Google Webmasters.

    I have a lot of experience with SEO and backlinking. Let me know if you need anymore help or advice.

    Hi sweetbet, yes that's the idea. I have a few more ideas for it also.
    I appreciate your comments
