In this post I would like to review the best known affiliate programs that allow regular members to join and advertise affiliate sponsors for a return. In general there are two types of revenue sharing programs:

1. Commission-based - is where you as affiliate will be entitled to earn anywhere from 20% to 50% of online revenue that gaming sites get from players sent by you. This revenue share program may have a higher return than CPA but it may also be less profitable if new members that you send don’t end up returning to the site again.
2. CPA - or cost per action, is a simple model where you get a one time deposit of anywhere from $25 to $250 for each player that signs up through your affiliate link. Usually the only requirement is for the new player to make a minimum deposit that varies from site to site. This is a sure way to earn money for all your marketing and advertising efforts for each member that you send, no matter how long that member will stick around with your sponsor.

Affiliate programs are the main source of new member traffic for online poker and online casino websites. These programs have stood the test of time even from pre-internet era where companies have paid individuals for referring new customers to them. It is a single, no risk, minimal effort marketing model that allows poker and casino companies experience large numbers of new members coming onboard each and every day.

I, Dmitri Sennikov, co-creator of GreatestPokerRooms.com is glad to announce that we are back to marketing our service to poker affiliates. Initially our focus was on getting the big players to sign up and post their ads on our main page. After some unsuccessful trials we have changed our strategy to focus our attention on average poker affiliates who earn income by selling somebody else’s poker-related products. Such products include game room membership, poker books, poker memorabilia, or simply advertising for upcoming poker rolls and championships.

If you are an affiliate and would like to post your ad for FREE on our web site, please do so by joining GreatestPokerRooms, hurry before all boxes are taken!
