Poker SEO Blog

Poker website reviews seem to be an in-demand product offering. By that, I mean that I’ve had multiple inquiries about what services I offer, and I’ve decided to start offering poker website reviews as a service. (And honestly, I’m not going to limit myself to just reviewing poker websites, either. I’m qualified and willing to review casino websites, gambling websites, or a...

Most people use a keyword tool. External seems to be the most commonly used keyword tool, but I prefer to use internal keyword tools. What’s the difference? Your definition is probably different from mine. I think that an external keyword tool is a tool that uses information from someplace other than your website. For example, Google has an Adwords keyword tool. External is the name of the g...

Here’s my KeywordStrategy.org review. It’s not going to be as detailed as Michael Martinez’s review of KeywordStrategy.org, but I think it will provide a slightly different perspective. I don’t think about keyword research and SEO exactly like Michael does, and you probably don’t think about keyword research and SEO exactly the way I do, so getting multiple perspectiv...

Can poker sites just change their terms and conditions whenever they want to? I’m most familiar with this question from the perspective of a poker affiliate, but I can see how a poker player might be interested in the answer to this question too. It’s been my experience that most poker sites have a clause in their terms and conditions that allows them to change their terms and conditio...

This post contrasting poker traffic and poker rankings was inspired by and is partially a response to Fraser’s post at Keyword Strategy, Chase Traffic, Not Rankings. In his post, Fraser suggests that most webmasters would make more money if they focused on chasing traffic instead of chasing rankings. The way to do that, he suggests, is to focus on adding content to your site rather than focu...

I’ve been meaning to review Best of the Web for quite a while. I’ve been submitting sites to the Best of the Web directory for years now, and I have some ideas about how valuable their website directory is. In the interest of full disclosure, I am an affiliate, and if you use any of the links in this review to submit a site to their directory, I’ll receive a small commission. Th...

Why Your Gambling Affiliate Program Sucks: A Webmasters POV This article was written by Roger from Casinosites.com Here I’m going to talk a little bit about our “gaming partners” and why they’ve really sucked lately. This is kind of a spin off of articles you’ve probably read such as “why your link exchange emails suck”. For the sake of this article I’m going to refer to us as t...

How to Launch a Poker Forum Network If you want to create some sites which generate their own content and links, then you should think about launching a poker forum network. It doesn’t (in fact it shouldn’t be) a large network. It should be a small network of 3 or 4 poker forums that can all stand on their own. But you can cross link them within reason, and I’d be surprised if a...

I write a lot about driving traffic to a poker site using search engine optimization, but I thought it might be fun to look at some ways of driving traffic to a poker site WITHOUT using search engines to do it. Here are some suggested ways to start driving traffic to YOUR poker website, without search engine help. 1. Article Distribution – I know a lot of people sneer at article distributio...

I’m going to write about the casino pay per click business model today. Unless you’ve known me a long time, you probably don’t realize that I got my start doing casino pay per click. I don’t know how profitable it is anymore, considering the recent events, but as an exercise in how to think about making money and return on investment, it’s excellent. The way a casino...
