Not as bad as october !!!
Actually its looking better then november and could turn out big and good. I noticed that I changed some programs and took on some new ones and they are doing well while the old standards are either down or not impressive ….
As a whole MGC’s are just sucking overall, I am tired of the affiliate managers same old BS from Microgaming also … Some have done better though but as a whole Microgaming is pretty lame the end of this year. I lost a lot of advertising revenue this year due to Referback, Vegas Partners and some that are not even worth mentioning … I tried to talk it out with some and there is just no use. I get the same old BS answers and then when I switched them out to new software companies I do well … Go figure, it was all a bunch of BS and some companies having major problems … As well the new casinos with new software are actually in the office during our time zones which means I can actually get some sleep instead of staying up all night to ask what the problems are ????
I do know a few things that I have learned …
First off to hell with loyalty, I was loyal and got F**ked out of ad revenue and no reprise for any of it. So referback I wish you all a crappy christmas may scrooge steal your stockings.
Second if you are promoting casinos with proc cyber as the processor …. Good luck paying bills because that seems to be part of Microgamings problems … any casino I have been using that chose proc cyber for merchant accounts has went to the deep south of the border in conversions. Hell Proc Cyber casinos are still in my red revenue level for marketing cash spent. Which is bs I have marketed these casinos 3 plus years now and got scrooged out of hard earned cash.
As and example referback last month got about 1 K clicks last month from my surfers I made jack frost for a profit … I sent less then a tenth of that to a new playtech affiliate and made over 40 times that with 2 playersand have had 10 more real depositors and will make a good haul for december with them alone. Better then referback for half the year.
OK enough before I turn myself into scrooge … but in reflection I am pissed as hell at the BS I had to endure ….
Happy Holidays may Santa treat you all like good boys and girls
Badabing
I removed 95% of their links
… I was doing 50 bills a month with them at one point from only
1 casino.:rolleyes:
Yah,
Go figure : ( Thanks yall for the new affiliate program suggestions last month I am much better off leaving some of my old faithfuls behind … All I can say is that they need some Viagra to get the geyser standing up and spouting off again.
I would guess I got about 90% of there links down now …
The other 10 % will fall off the map before the new year is more then a infant …. Father time let me get some of the slow motion potion so I can catch up more before the year ends …
To little time and to much work …
I have been burned by refusing to give up on old stand bys also. I have programs that I have to send thousands of hits to get a handful of depositing players from. While new partners run rings around them with only a few hundred hits.
It makes no sense, but I am from the old school and I have hard time NOT being loyal even when I know it’s costing me money.
What’s hilarious is when you talk to these guys they all say the same thing “Gee Professor, we dont understand it either. We are having our best month ever! Maybe you need to give us MORE exposure”
99% of all the other webmasters you talk to are’nt doing anything with the program, but they pull out that one name of someone who is having a decent month!
Its enough to drive a man to drink.
With that BS
We will not be drinking Champagne for new years for sure. I am loyal also and well sad I was because it killed my budget for a few months … They are having a good month by robbing people blind with the bad cc processors or whatever other excuse they use. Its really interesting that in 4 months of bitching about it I only had one MGC tell me that I should not send to the casinos using proc cyber … These fools using proc cyber are making it bad for all there damned casinos affiliates ….
All I can really say is that they had a chance to get more exposure for a few months and now I will no longer do business with them … They are either crooks or fools … I choose both as a good description.
sock cucking fother muckers …
ON a up note slotland is starting to do better, casino blasters looks promising, and a big hand to Casino Rewards they have started to get back to where they were … as well
May Santa leave a few whales in your stockings
Quote:It makes no sense, but I am from the old school and I have hard time NOT being loyal even when I know it’s costing me money.Ditto. However, I am generally quick to pull the plug if a program doesn’t seem to be performing – the only difference is that people I know and trust generally get second, third, even fourth chances when I have available space.
Quote:What’s hilarious is when you talk to these guys they all say the same thing “Gee Professor, we dont understand it either. We are having our best month ever! Maybe you need to give us MORE exposure”Yup – I hear that BS all the time… like they think I don’t know how well each program performs on my own site?
If I put up Casino A, Casino B, and Casino C at the same time in equally prominent positions, and Casino A performs well while B and C do so-so, it should be readily obvious that:
1. B/C either have crap websites or poor tracking, or both
2. B/C might be too old (nonsense, I get activity with even some of the oldest casinos)
3. B/C might be different software (almost never since I generally only do MGS and Playtech)The only way B/C will get a chance again is if I know them and regard them as sincere and honest and willing to work with me to improve things. And the only way A will disappear from the site is if I don’t trust them or they start pulling stunts with players.
Simple as that. I’ve learned that loyalty means nothing these days unless you are a BIG player. I paid a very big price to learn that lesson over the last three years.
Now it’s time to get some back.
I treat this like the stock trade game. I don’t stay loyal to anyone, only the ones that say $$, my language. In the case of online gaming, I think it’s a saturated business so folks are just fickling when they choose a casino. But I gotta a question for yaw: Would promoting the big brands such as casinoonnet usually gets better clickthrough/signup ratio and better retention?
