How to get good rake back deals? - Poker Affiliate World - Poker Affiliate Programs Discussion and Forums

How does one get good rakeback deals? I have some decent traffic for it ( Not the site in sig. though) but right now I only have a 35% rake back deal with a Prima room. I would like to have more, but preferably without having to negotiate with every single poker room. I also want the deals to be very good.

Its just like normal affiliate stuff. If you want higher deals you have to send them lots of players. Or if your site has been around for awhile and you have a good track record you can do the ole "well I wont work for you unless I get X trick" but that doesnt work nearly as good as people say or think it does.

Well, yeah but there are also some rakeback networks which offers good deals for many sites. I have contact with one guy like that but he is a little difficult to deal with so I'd prefer a different solution.

Works great for me

but they usually try to lowball me anyways. I'm currently trying this "trick" with Empire Poker / Noble Poker. They contacted me yesterday and I sent them my "lowest commission" pitch.

you can get in touch with a big rakeback affiliate and ask to be a sub affiliate under him and then you get to offer a lot of his high rakeback percentages...

Yes I think it was something like that I had in mind. But then the question is who is good to contact for such a thing?

Well it all depends what rooms you would like to promote.

Remember, by subbing someone you get a instant gratification in that you get a higher rate right away, but you may not be able to get much higher rates in the future. Remember, the master affiliate is getting some of your money also.

I looked at it a little more and perhaps I might as well get my own deals.

Goodluck starting out at tier 1.

Where you start matters little, unless you expect to die within three months or never do much work.
