domain (newbie) - highendcasino.com and others

[mcla5495]

Hi all,

I am new to the domain parking and selling game and have the following domains for sale and would love your thoughts on any value to them?

highendcasino.com
highendslots.com
highendbingo.com
777fold.com
parkinglord.com
uwinulose.com
onmyhols.com
ultimatewelly.com

Thanks in advance

 

[mcla5495]

Any advice anyone?

I'm guessing there is not much value in any of them but would love some opinions from the experienced domainers here?

Any info be hugely appreciated?

I am not an expert in domains but I have been in the casino business for a long time. In the casino niche you are better off developing your domains. After they are developed and earns some income you can flip them for a reasonable amount of money.

Good shout. Any recommendations on how to go about this? Is there a package I could purchase etc to get me going?

Thank you I think It may be worth my while developing that one as it could prove profitable a wmaris suggested. Nice little project

Good thread. Out of curiosity, how would you develop such a domain. I am asking because I have a similar domain (casino888).

Was just having a browse and come across this
onlinecasinobuilders.com

Even the bronze package looks decent could build from that. Very tempting

Easiest is just to throw a wordpress template on it, there are thousands of templates available which you can just slightly modify to create a good looking casino related site.

Due to the casino affiliate niche being extremely competitive, it is a must to break it up in segments and then focus on a sub niche, basically segmentation and then positioning into a sector that has good search volume with lower competition.

I used to own onlinecasinocanada.ca (btw, the new owner changed the site totally from how I had it), I focuses mainly on slots and bonuses. The site did not get huge traffic volume but it made $x,xxx+ easily each month. The thing with casino traffic is that you don''t need huge volume, you just need to get the right traffic. After a couple of years I sold the domain name and website for $xx,xxx

Making money in the casino niche is possible, it just takes dedication

Thanks @mcla5495 and @wmarais . Great info. I like what you said above @wmarais about focusing on a sub niche. I wouldnt want to "build/host" a casino on my site (which I assume what onlinecasinobuilders.com is all about when I scanned their site). But rather focus on Bonusses like coupons and free stuff.

Almost like an affiliate of sorts.

I like the way onlinecasinocanada.ca looks now. (not sure what content you had before). But this must take massive amounts of time and money (and know-how) right?

Great this sounds like a project I'm up for. I'm currently developing a bookmaker affilliate site but lost motivation as there is simply so much better sites out there and the competition is ridiculous. And it's boring. But I'm up for the casino challenge. Would you advise i purchased a package from online casino builders to get me going? At $299 (£250 for me) for a bronze package seems decent. Get a lot for it and looks pro.

So maybe my other domains could be better? Highendslots or highendbingo? And focus on them?

Casino affiliate marketing is the easiest, running your own casino has way too much redtape. If I can give you a suggestion, try to stay away from "free" when it comes to online casino traffic. People (traffic) searching for free bonuses, free casino, free slots etc does not convert well at all. Try focusing on providing good content to people actually looking at gambling online, usually people searching for terms like : best online casino, best casino etc, those are the people that would like to gamble online but due to so many shady casinos on the web they are hesitant to gamble at just any casino, they need to find a place that has some reputation etc. and if you can provide them with the ease of mind that the casino you recommend will not screw them, they will sign up and generate income for years (I still generate income from players i signed up more than 4 years ago).

Running your own casino will be tough, way to many big players out there. Also, online casinos are nothing without their affiliates. Do you have a way to signup hundreds of affiliates to help you market your casino? Also, remember there are probably a bunch of new online casinos popping up daily, there are just as many closing down daily as well. I would rather recommend becoming an affiliate with some major well known casinos, send traffic there and you will get signups (people signup way easier at casinos like 888.com etc (household brands) than a new unknown casino.

Thanks for that. Great info. And we'll done on the success. So should i promote only 1 or 2 casinos or would you go down the road of promoting many? I find it hard to create any originall content as it's all been done over and over again.

Sounds sensible. And a lot cheaper. Will give that a go. Nice one for the info.

Thanks for the good info @wmarais . Much appreciated.

Nice one. So are your sites affilliate based? Or actual gaming sites?
