An idea about gaming affiliate programs

I have an idea to attract all kinds of players.

Use the commission made from affiliate programs to offer a winner prize, so players can make 20% more money when they win.

I designed a demo site, http://winnerprize.com

Just basic concept. Please take a look and give me some feedbacks. I hope to find a partner on this idea cus my web skill really sucks.

Thanks!

Okay here is the problem with your site. You tell us that there is some sort of rake back but on your site there is no explantion. On first visit it looks like a banner farm to me without the banners.

Need a little better content, to say the least. When people show up at your site they have no idea what your offering.

the concept itself is not that bad, but i think you need to develop the site a lot more. basically you want to give some lucky winner a portion of your proceeds for any given month? the average joe is not going to get that same message from your homepage. also, you need to make it more search engine friendly, etc.

Thank very much to both of you!

I plan to offer player winner prize - 20% monthly winning, plus 30% commission on their referrals winner prize.

I said my web skill sucks, my English is worser. But I think the idea is a winner, because it gives player extra money when they win. Other portal sites might give player useful information or interesting content but money has stronger attraction.

I thought asking gaming sites to add the 20% winner prize to player account automatically.

I also thought asking partner gaming sites to pop a window about winner prize to boost their sign up rate and to share their traffic.

All this takes lot skills that I don't have, plus build a forum, SEO etc. I got to find a partner.

Please give more feedbacks, also consider a 50/50 partnership, thanks again!

be careful with partnerships, especially with people you just met over the internet. a lot of these partnerships go sour, with one guy stealing the $$$.

Partnering with the wrong company on an online casino cost me about $20,000 in 2003. Ouch!! It was a very expensive lesson.

My suggestion is to only partner with someone who is credible or you are refferd to by a trusted business associate.

I totally agree, find right partner on net is harder than find true love in life.

If you like the idea, here's what I thought about the partnership:

1. You CEO everything, use your affiliate links and pay me half profit.

2. I pay half marketing etc costs and do my best help on the side ( no much I can help, maybe post at forums, no skill work etc).

To know me a little more, please check out my websites, go joypuzzle.com and follow the few links.

Basically, if you like the idea and have talent to make it success, you can trust me 100%.

Thanks!

Just add more thoughts about this idea.

I heared and believe few sites make 100k per month, such as casinomeister.com and casinoaffiliateprograms.com, pokerpages.com, thepokerforum.com, winneronline.com each has unique content and active forum, all list high position on google.

It seems take good content, active forum, high SE traffic to win this game.

I think the best content for gambler is extra money, useful information and a warm forum. So if winnerprize.com offers the extra money that no one yet to offer, put useful links to satisfy player needs, build a cool forum for player to stay, it should be a winner.

The ideal fuctions of the site would be like this in my view:

1. Player comes to the site, clicks any link and open player account with our code and he is all set, 20% winner prize add to his account by the casino automaticly.

2. Player needed gaming info is easy find and useful - simply link to useful sites.

3. A forum for player to discuss their winnings and have fun.

The biggest problem I see is how the accounting works.

Casinos all want more player but who want extra work? If some don't care extra work and take care accounting then can we trust them?

What to do? What to do? Pretty tough challenge to my mind.
