Week 3 of being online
It has already been 3 weeks since us coming online. We are progressing well within our initial plans but we do understand it may take up to 6 months to fully get noticed. We have not launched our public advertising as of yet because we are waiting for at least some of our adboxes to be populated by online poker and casino web site ads. It is our hope at this moment that at least a small number of publishers will see some value in our service.
As we are located in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada we decided to try our best with some of the local poker companies. Steve Black, president of Suited Media Inc., was kind enough to be the first one to reply to our offer. With great interest in poker industry and great successes in the past, Steve Black and his colleagues have developed PokerSpace, a brand new community built exclusively for poker enthusiasts. Although their software is currently in alpha release (i.e. registration is allowed by invitation only), we are hoping to have the support of such a great innovative company once a full version of their software is released!
We have also received positive feedback from several other well known online poker and casino web sites. We are currently trying to assure our future publishers of our benefit to them. The main setback in this is that at this moment we do not have much traffic coming in on our site as we are waiting to go full out public. It will take us time and careful planning to turn this into a successful venture.
From now on, we will be posting our news, interesting poker happenings, and other articles on topics like traffic acquisition and entrepreneurship every week on Tuesdays. This will keep us organized and give you an incentive to come back to visit our site.
If you have any comments or suggestions please leave a comment and we will be glad to get in touch with you if needed.
