Casino/Bingo/dating site, is it worth it?

Hi

I'm fairly new to the affiliate world and have been thinking over developing a network of different sites targetting different areas. One of these being a casino/bingo/dating site but I was wondering if these fields are already saturated and to competitive to be a good use of my time. How does the return from these types of sites compare to other affiliate areas such as retail or travel? Does anyone have any advise or tips that they could offer me on this?

Cheers.

be different. Have a bingo/casino AND dating site. Where people can meet and chat and play games...

you could always try using a white label of each see how you get on. White labels do not cost anything to set up and you will save a lot on development time. Then once you know which areas are proffitable for you, you will be able to put your focus into those areas.

There are plenty of white label programs that cater for each of those industries.

Hi,

From our experience, we've seen affiliates who become successful quite quickly. We see new sites and new affiliates starting out in the affiliate world and it's always great to see new affiliates succeed.

I wouldn't say the market is saturated - the market has definitely grown significantly since the past few years, but there's still room for more players.

If you need any information on where you can start, merchant suggestions, etc, send me a PM, I can definitely provide you with some more info

By the way, Income Access are celebrating Bingo Week next week (20th - 24th July), and we'll be presenting bingo articles for affiliates on IA's igaming blog. There will be topics for bingo affiliate newbies to advanced affiliates.

Thanks for the advice guys. Jenny I've dropped you a PM.

Due to large emphasis on chat and community within bingo sites, it does seem to follow that bingo and dating could go hand in hand.

There are already a few sites that seem to go for that niche..see Bingo Dating | Bingo Chat Rooms | Meet Bingo Friends for a good example.

However competiton for search terms, such as 'bingo dating', isn't particularly high. But neither is people actually searching for it (only 60 searches in June, and possibly half were from me). It's quite a good angle for interesting and readable copy though.

Good luck!

Nice idea... but exactly what clientele would I find (like potential partners?).
