Why Your Linkbuilding Strategy Sucks
Tuesday, May 4th, 2010How to Find Good Poker Link Exchange Partners
Monday, May 3rd, 2010Some poker webmasters think that regular link exchanges don’t work anymore. (Lots of them think that 3 way link exchanges are somehow “better”, but I’ve written about debunking the reciprocal links are bad myth before.)

How to Find Spanish Poker Link Exchanges & Link Swaps
Monday, March 1st, 2010I’m seeing more and more people getting translations made of their poker sites, page by page. Living in the USA, the obvious first choice for translations for me is Spanish.

How to Think Outside of the Box
Tuesday, October 6th, 2009A post on another poker affiliate blog contends that “thinking outside of the box is idiotic advice“. The phrase IS trite, isn’t it? And the people who repeat that phrase like a mantra are the least likely to actually think outside of the box. But it’s far from the worst poker affiliate advice I’ve ever seen. The problem is that most poker webmasters don’t know...
