InactiveThe majority seem to think i should drop them, which i had done, but recently reinstated them because of their annual NFL Handicapping contest(probably the best one on the net), and the fact that they put a whole new affiliate program in place, and was under the impression that they would make an effort to see that i am happy
As for Mario’s suggestions
That is pretty much what i have been doing in emails back and forth with them, but they give me the impression that they are trying to avoid the topic of wiping out my negative balance
Since i have Mario up here, maybe i should ask what to do with Vip Sports
Vip Sports was the first online sportsbook i started betting with, long before i ever got into this, around 10 years ago, and naturally i gave them top billing as they were always an A+ outfit, but i’m sorry to say that Vip Sports has been going downhill steadily, so i need to get some things out in the open and hopefully Mario can share his thoughts on the matter
1 – The new look is much worse than the old blue/white look
2 – What is the deal with nine.com, it looks like they have had a very negative influence on you, nine.com is a new book, and you are a blue chip A+ book with a long history, you should be bringing them up to your level, and not have them bringing you down to theirs, with all due respect to nine.com, Vip made their reputation by providing users with a quality product and many extra features that bettors found useful, now it looks like Vip has settled on being a skin of nine.com
3 – I had to pull Vip from my horse racing pages after receiving player complaints about their change of terms, the track odds +10% was replaced by capping of odds, a very significant move, especially if you were trying to lose customers
While these changes are not that huge, they are clearly a deterioration, and with regards to the new home page, i attached a before and after, i found the before much more to my liking, and the larger menu content made me feel like staying at your site longer

Anyway, those are just my observations, maybe others feel differently, would like to hear if you played any role in these changes
As for the other guys who were interested in turnover share and betting exchanges…
Betfair and Betdaq operate their affiliate programs from places like cj.com and tradedoubler.com, and the like, i do not recommend those outfits and their kind, they are terrible, they are scamola ad agencies that don’t even track properly, with virtually non existent customer service, i’m in the process of dumping them all
And for these turnover % books, from what i remember they were usually these below average scandinavian books that were offering this option, i think i came across a few once upon a time, since they have poor player retention and relatively low action, they can afford to offer this option to affiliates
There is no holy grail of sportsbook affiliate programs, Vip Profits is probably one of the best since they offer CPA and % of deposit, virtually guaranteeing you some income, and both Vip Sports and Bet Gameday are pretty good products
