What is your most successful marketing method

**td4** · 11-04-2009 10:08 AM

What have you found to be the most successful way of getting new players to your site?

I know there are many factors in determining how many quality players you get or how many depositing real money players you get.

What I am interested in is to find out which form of marketing has worked the best for you over the last two years.

What about Social Media? There are lots of niche opportunities and networks to buy cheap traffic and convert players, especially internationally.

twitter alone is accounting for about 40% of the traffic on one of my newest sites, with
Organic SEO accounting for about 55%, w/ direct traffic at 5%,

on another site it's 80% organic, 20 referral.. apples and oranges! gotta leverage whatever will work with your particular sites / products I think.

Here in the US we are limited on the PPC we can do with gambling related opportunities. E-mail is great, but you really need to stick to it for a long time to build a list.

SEO is the way I always go, but I do think there is merit in social media. You just have to make sure you're doing it right. If all you are doing is pushing a link on people, they won't respond. If however you help with something they care about, they will help you without hesitation.

Thank you for all the interesting and useful replies. Only problem is I feel like a fossil now.

I have been out of the affiliate side of things only since the end of 2007 and the whole thing has been turned on it's head. i never even thought about how to effectively use social media.

My re-education started a few weeks ago, but now I see there is still a looooooooong way to go.

td4 you sound like me....social what?

Look on the bright side - imagine how much more traffic you'll be getting when you are across all these new developments

SEO has always worked best for me. PPC, which is severely limited here in US, is usually a large flush of money down the toilet. Social Media - not sure how this works in this industry.

What is 'other'?

Social Media? That is a lot, but with f.ex facebook and twitter- my friend would kick my ass if I used it to promote my affiliatepages/deals.
