Hi,
this guy is advertising in yahoo’s version of adwords, but I just can’t see why / how he intends on making money from it?
here’s the page his link takes you to:
http://www.how2gamble.com/?SR=666893there’s nothing that takes you to a banner farm, anywhere that I could find.
curious.
the best I can figure is he’s going to run these how to ads for a while and then start promoting a different site and add banners to the how to site for when people return to learn a new game.
that’s a stretch but its the best I could figure.
July 4, 2004 at 10:11 am #651444AnonymousInactiveThe AA.com and Poker Charts banners have tracking codes on them. They could be affiliate links.
Another trick i’ve noticed some people doing lately is to make a informative site with no affiliate banners, get it placed in directories like DMOZ and Zeal as a non-commercial site. Once the site is in the directories the webmaster throws a few affiliate links up. The state that DMOZ is in it would take 6 months at least before they realise whats happening. By that time he’s in the google directory too, and been on top of the search results for having a few good links to his site.
July 4, 2004 at 10:12 am #651446AnonymousInactiveI see his big banner for POKER CHARTS so I am assuming that since that site is a by registration only site he obtains user details and perhaps its a membership fee site or he just gets the details and spams…dunno…very strange
July 4, 2004 at 10:16 am #651447AnonymousInactiveOk, I didn’t realise AA.com is the site for American Airlines. I doubt they’d have affiliates.
July 4, 2004 at 5:01 pm #651454AnonymousInactiveHmmmm….. aa.com and they have a free drink service (hic).
Pretty funny as AA is pretty well known to stand for Alcoholics Anonymous for God knows how long.
July 4, 2004 at 9:13 pm #651470AnonymousInactiveI don’t see that link on the Yahoo page.
The top link redirects to Golden Palace.
July 5, 2004 at 4:00 am #651486AnonymousInactivesearch for “slots” on yahoo without the “” and go to the second results page.
July 5, 2004 at 5:22 am #651490AnonymousGuestI figure the webmaster has created an affiliate-free site to get listed, and if probably going to be adding either pop-ups to an affiliate site or casino ads, now that his/her foot is in the door.
July 5, 2004 at 5:50 am #651491AnonymousGuestHi,
well Krystall pointed it out that he’s getting email addresses if nothing else. Well worth the small-time costs he’s paying for traffic.
I’ve have every intention of being up there with him very soon.
