What are the most common affiliate programs

[solokkhz]

Hi,

I am searching for affiliate programs for my sites and i am just overwhelmed of the amount of programs out there.

Do you have any suggestions and good experiences with companies? is there one or two more common then the other programs?

thanks

A lot depends on what market you are looking to promote. Casino, Poker, Book, other... It is a wise choice to do research on any brand you are considering. Run a search on both the brand and the affiliate program. Look for "pay" "rogue" "scam" using the name to find potential issues. Searching the forums here can lead you to the good, bad and ugly programs too.

You can also use the list of affiliate programs sponsoring GPWA, but watch out, not all of them are recommendable, seen from the point of view of affiliates.

That is exactly what i do, and still not easy to decide when you never did it.

I'll go for the higher revenue share ones, test it, then choose the ones that convert better and stick to them.

Before searching for higher revenue share ones, you should first define your target market - what type of gambling(casino, poker, bingo etb.), which games (slots, table games, etc.), which country and which language. Then you can use https://www.gpwa.org/affiliateprogra...iatesearch.asp to preselect about 10-20 affiliate programs. You must then try to find out, not only what revenue share they are offering, but also read their T&Cs. You can get very good guides from AGD and CM forums. Leave out everything that is marked there rogue, predatory etc. Go to the forums of those now left over to see what people are saying about them. And you should do some web search to get more feedback on them. After you have done all that, you will definitely feel more comfortable about finding the right programs.

I agree, find a niche and concentrate on that niche. When I first started my first website had poker, casino, sports, and bingo all in one site. I concentrated on "online casinos" and found even that wasn't specific enough.

Then I started promoting live dealer casinos, and then started seeing results. That was a few years ago.

Now, find your niche that you are interested in and base your affiliate programs on that niche. Start off with 2-3 programs and then go rotate the banners to see which programs work best for your traffic.

You may want to take it a step further and not only target a specific niche, but a specific region as well.

Good luck! If you need any advice or ideas please PM me.
