Hi Guys,

I have been around for some time and would like some help from some of the more experienced Affiliates. If you would like links back or something in one of my sections, let me know, because its not a problem. I have started some advertising campaigns, and would like to know if my homepage is set up in a way that makes people want to sign up. I have tried several times and think that now it is set up in a way where it does'nt pressure people, but makes them curious about signing up for some of my affiliate programs. If there is anything you could see me improving, I would love any feedback. I hope we are all here to help one another out, because I feel that is why I post on this site. If there is anything I could do for you in exchanger for this kind of advice, I have open ears

Waiting to hear from you all,

The first thing I would do is add an area for top 5 sign up or match deposit poker bonuses. I would put it just below the pkr launch area. I think its important to have match poker bonus or something to that affect a couple of times on your home page. And I like having the top 5 poker bonuses or top 5 poker sites staring them in the face.

Next, before I got into this business, I was an avid online gambler. So looking at your site from that perspective, the first page that caught my eye was the deposit bonuses page under poker deals. I was then dissappointed to find out this page consisted of links to other sites. Frankly, I along with alot of your visitors are looking for a poker site to play and we want to know what kind of bonuses we are going to get for doing so, and I don't want to go fishing to other sites to find this. So I would change the online poker deals to other cool sites or something similar so there is no confusion for your visitors.

Next, what you have at the top of the navigation menu excluding home should be somewhere else on the page. I personally like to reserve the very top of the navigation for the links that put greenbacks in my pocket. Put the contact us, privacty policy ect at the bottom or something, these things do not make you money. I think even the advertising should go elsewhere, this revenue is peanuts compared to what you will be making further into the game, so reserve this area for links that will do just that.

Next, I would add the words bonuses and reviews to left navigation title for "Online Poker Rooms". You want it to be as clear as possible what your visitors will expect when they click on a link, and these things are exactly what the majority of your visitors are looking for, bonuses and poker reviews.

Next, I would not have your sportsbooks sites and online casinos links under resources. I would put a title in the navigation menu for other gambling bonuses or something close. Also, having your keywords in your title tag is very important. No one searches for sportsbook resources, try something like "Online Sportsbooks | Reviews & Deposit Bonuses" and the same goes for some of your other pages. You also have the same description tag for every page. This is not good. Lets use your sportsbook page again. Use something like "Provides reviews of online sportsbooks. Find the best match deposit bonuses for betting sports online." And do this for every page and make the keywords relevant to each particular page as well.

And lastly, in the left nav menu I would add what bonuses are available at each poker room. Example
PKR $250
Full Tilt $600
Poker Room $100

You should also get some alt tags going for every single image and fill them with prime keywords. For example, I would put "100% Match Bonus At Poker.com" for your poker.com banner and do so for every single image you have. This is just more keywords that the search engines have to index but try to make each one relevant to the banner or image. Basically dont spam these alt tags, just make them descriptive with a few keywords like above.

I could be off a little on my reasoning here, I am a newb myself and am still learning. But these are the things I would change if it were my site.

Cool man, glad I could help.

Hey Offyourface,

Thanks to all your help I made some neccessary changes today and think that these will help produce more sign-ups. I greatly appreciate all your help and if you need anything, let me know. I still need to work on a couple of the inner pages, but I think the changes I did today will have a much better chance of producing sign-ups.

Looking good Graham. Dont forget to write a unique description **** tag for each page and also do some reading on H1 - H2 tags regarding seo. I didnt see that your using them with another quick glance and it would behoove you to do so. I would also make your left nav menu titles maybe one of those yellows you use on your site so each category will stand out a little more. Just remember Im a noob also, so what I have told you is certainly not the gospel and should be ascertained through your own research. After all, I cant seem to break 100 uniques a day with my site so I need to do alot of reading and work as well lol. Later.

I have spent the last few hours doing some H1/H2 tags. Its a long process, I just hope it pays off

Thanks again for all the great advice. You have really helped out a lot!

I like the new look more. The top logo area looks great. Much better than just the logo all alone.

It's nice to see people take the effort to really lend a hand and help out.

Nice work!

Hey man!

Your site is looking better and better each day!

One small thing you should have is to link your main BankrollBoost.com heading to your home page. I find it makes navigation a whole lot easier on sites then finding the home link.
