    Default Some advice on a New site!! Backgammon

    So we currently have casino, poker....

    Were working on a huge casino article site which will be done over time.

    Were now getting ready to do some slots and bingo sites and have some really good targeted domains....

    We considered Rummy for a bit, but then i got thinking...

    What about Backgammon?

    I have done some looking around and i do not notice to much online for that right now.. at least not as much as the others..

    Plus there are several sites available to play backgammon unlike Rummy where you only have one or 2....

    I have found the perfect domain name which is a premium domain name, and it gets a good search volume of around 50 000 a month with the exact key words in the url title..

    Before I invest this large sum of money I wanted to ask if anyone else promotes Backgammon and how it goes for them..

    Any advice?

    Hei Steve

    We launched backgammon a few months ago and to be honest i would not waste your time or money, its funny because i was also talking to another operator yesterday that has a backgammon skin and they said it has no real value.

    Stick up another poker or casino site, or even look at doing something for 2012 UEFA European Football Championship.

    I threw up a backgammon site and I too have not had the results that I had hoped for.

    I heard that the player value was high but I have not seen that hold true yet, but I have not put much effort into the site in quite a while to be honest.

    If you decide to put up a site, let me know and we can exchange a few backgommon related inks on it.

    With many of the changes the Rummy sites have recently gone through I am glad I did not put a lot of effort into those....however I still feel that skill gaming sites are not going away any time soon.

    I have attempted backgammon without much success either. There was a time I pondered a devoted backgammon site but after seeing next to nothing in ROI, I dashed the idea. Another casino or poker site would pay back much faster. Don't know why backgammon is so hard to convert but I am not going to waste my time trying to figure it out.

    Like I posted in another thread a few days ago, backgammon is a waste of time. I own a backgammon website for more than 3 years with the hope that it would explode like poker one day. Unfortunately, non of that happened, and I believe it to be even smaller today. My website attracts between 200-300 unique visitors a day, and I'm having a good month if I make more than $200. Poker will definitely provide you with a much higher ROI.

    Oh, and if you are interested, I am willing to sell the backgammon website (www.backgammoninfo.net)
    My websites:
    Casino Bonus King - Honest information about casino bonuses
    Backgammon Info - Lots of information for backgammon payers
    Trade Crude Oil - Community for individuals that want to trade oil
    Forex Currency - Community for the forex trader
