Does anyone make any money targeting UK?

[Robban9007]

Is anyone making any money targeting the UK market? I have tried several times but i never succed. I have long experience in the casino affiliat market and have made good money in a lot of countries but when it comes to UK it´s seems impossible.

I know that it is expensive but that´s not the problem. The problem for me is that i get almost no FTDs. Maybe it is the casinos, maybe it is the keywords.

Does anyone have any tips and advice for casinos that works well? I have tried all the bif ones like Leo Vegas, Casumo, 888 etc but nothing.

You are about five years too late.
Currently most UK traffic is mobile, they're small players 10,20, 50 GBP and then they're done.

However - I do make good money from UK bookmakers / casinos - but most of it is from long term customers referred from 2000 to 2015.

Ah i see. Well i have quite high CPA deals with a trigger on 30GBP and only targeting mobile audiance. But the biggest problem i have is to find the right casinos. Do you have any tips on casinos that still converts towards uk?

Lots of casinos are leaving or already left the UK. If you are in the beginning why won't you try Scandinavian markets? Value of a player is much better.

there is plenty of money to be made in the UK, it's just a competitive market. I've only ever sent organic traffic through SERPS and only ever worked on rev share. It sounds very cliche'd but you need to create something good that will rank for proper keywords that will generate traffic and leads

Is there like no profitable casinos left? Im not in the beginning tho, its my 10th year but never tried UK and i happen to have a license to do it trouhg PPC on Google Ads. The Scandinavian market i have tried many times and it´s good but not possible via PPC anymore.

Yeah i can agree with you on that. But in this case it´s PPC.

Never done PPC but it's like anything, think outside the box. Find cheap keywords that will supply a slow steady drip of customers but customers that actually want to play

Hey Robban,

I've worked with various casinos and have had good FTD results with many.

Having said that, it always boils down to the keyword and most importantly player intention.

If players are coming to your ads with the intention of signing up, as long as the offer is enticing, they will join and play.

I can recommend L&L and One Click for honest affiliate dealings and decent FTD rations. They have multiple brands you can choose depending on their audience.

I've also had good results with others except 888 and I'm still not sure why.

Thanks and good luck.

Genesis Affiliates has a good brands and a really good conversion. Someone mentions L&L - I agree, this also a good partnership.

Does Genesis have a market towards UK?

 

[awesamko]

Yes, they have.

Two years ago (and even one year ago it was ok), the conversion rate was amazing (50%+), the best geo in terms of that at least. But after all the compliance issues and the stress we've gone through in the meantime, it's basically almost dead to us.

TauGaming brands still convert for us, but the value in general is low. Big operators hold "prisoners" the best keywords, its very expensive and pretty difficult I'd say..

I don't target the UK but do get some good players there, but nothing compared to the other markets

 

[RyanWeb]

I have built a few UK facing sites over the years, and have a UK section on most of my larger sites... Never really made to much. I figure the competition for UK players is way higher then other markets.

UK has always been so and so for me, even before all the compliance bs. Even Sweden was a more lucrative market by far until they too went downhill due to over regulation. UK today isnt very exciting. Small depositors, bonus abuse, and not a lot of retention. Slotsmillion told me they accept around £300 in dep before a SoW is requested and most players cant be fucked to go through that. Another big operator told me there are literally no whales left also due to anti money laundering laws and SoW. If I started out today, UK is not the market I would mainly target. I wouldnt even be surprised if online gaming in the UK disappears altogether.

Hello, The UK market is the most mature market in gambling plust the competition for it and its the hardest market from our experience ! So I guess you have to try different markets as main focus and the UK will come when you grow !

 

[NDG]

We don't even promote to the UK market anymore. It's over regulated and the compliance issues are a headache.
