Hey Everyone,
It has been brought to my attention that a major affiliate promoting one group of casinos is stealing content from many webmasters here and then doing redirects to their main page promoting their casinos only. This webmaster scumbag is currently in high positions. If this practice is not stop imediately then I think everyone here that is affected should list/name and shame.I want this person named and shamed, regardless of identity, unless the practice stops immediately!
We certainly have to fight back against such immoral conduct!
Thanks for bringing this to everyone’s attention, Captain!

Hi Captain,
I read your 2 posts here about stealing search engine traffic. This is not professional behaviour. I think we should report here all these scams.
Trying to achieve good positions on search engines is hard work, trying to deliver a good service to users with appropriate content is hard work, achieving a well-know business name is hard work. Most people here dedicate more than 10 hours a day to all these things. All the scamers /free riders should be ashamed. They should concern with their life/website and try to do what we do instead of simply trying to appropriate traffic that does not belong them.
There is a stick post here on CAP: “The Role of an Affiliate Manager”. I think it lacks one more thing. An affiliate manager should be aware and know where and how their casinos are being promoted. As promoting casinos on a page that tries to steal the work of months or even year of another person is not a good business practice, I think affiliate managers should concern about the issue and take some measures. If I’m an affiliate manager, I would not allow, under any circunstances, my casinos being promoted on such a scam. Achieving a good reputation is not easy and should not be destroyed in this way.
man we need a “union” all “family” related hehe
Serious we need something to help us combat things like this! :shooter:

Affiliate managers should not allow this to happen. Any program allowing this to be done by their affiliates should be named, shamed, and in my case, I will boycott them and make sure everyone knows how they operate.
I am quite upset about this!

As you know several programs could care less about this type activity – specially if the affiliate is bringing in the money! Boycott huh? Going on a smear campaign huh? GEESH the more things change the more they stay the same.

What the heck is that supposed to mean? Why would anyone want to bribe a program?
Expose the bastard.
Does this have to do with the affiliate itself buying key word advertising and competing directly against us?

This sounds like the same cat who did something similiar to me a few months ago. :hmmm: I do wish affiliate programs would stop accepting this type of crap to advertise their properties. It makes everyone look bad.
Hey Everyone,
Thanks to each and everyone’s post. I am going to give these two casino affiliate programs a chance to correct this. If not they don’t they will be exposed and shamed. They know who they are! I know some of you here want to know if you don’t already who thes two programs are. That will be made public to the full extent in the near future if they don’t put a stop to this. There are 3 other major affiliates here at CAP that know for sure what I am talking about. They will either rectify this situation or be hamed publicly.Pfuu…They have a whole bunch of my pages copied, redirected and what not…
The last time I voiced concern about this aff. program, I got my affiliate account closed, and a :nono: from the Profesor…I hate to do it, but – I told you so!
It was just a couple of months ago, and I got no support, neither from the moderators of this forum, nor from the comunity, and I was accused of bitching because I lost my ranking to them…And the other aff. program – the last time they contacted me for advertising their casino – I told them NO, because of their advertising on those websites, and they said – “We are sorry that you feel that way, but we do what’s best for the business” – so forget about it, nothing will change.
:flush:

Emmm – I have been supporting complaints about this issue for quite some time..
Hey Stupid,
I did not realize the problem at the time of your last posting. This problem has been clarified.
