The affiliate’s shelf: who players read

An affiliate is paid for being the page a player reads before choosing. We measured which pages those are, in Google and in AI answers.

Three measurements. In September 2026 we put 159 player questions to ChatGPT with web search across 23 markets, 48 of them asking which sites to read before choosing a casino. On 23 October 2026 we searched Google US for twelve licensed casino brands, each next to “review”, “withdrawal problems” and “legit”. The same day we read the top ten of eighteen ordinary casino searches, from slot reviews and bonus terms to which casinos are legal in a state.

Brand searches showing a casino page planted on an unrelated domain8 of 36Some of the pages you compete with sit on hacked or rented government, university and small-business sites. Google’s spam policies name that tactic; we do not use it.

The full measurement of which review sites AI assistants cite, market by market, is on our affiliate SEO page. The short version: the list per market is short and stable, and three of the ten sites cited across the UK answers were cited in seven of eight.

Method: ChatGPT (gpt-4.1-mini) through the API with web search, September 2026, 159 answers, 48 of them to “which websites should I read to compare and review online casinos in [market]”. Google results from DataForSEO, US, desktop, 23 October 2026: 36 brand searches (12 licensed brands, three wordings each) and 18 content searches, each top ten classified by hand. Brand names are kept off this page.

Which affiliate business are you

Affiliates earn from a few pages per market, and which pages depends on the business. Five kinds ask us for organic work, and each starts somewhere different.

Review portal

Brand reviews, “best casinos in [market]” lists and the pages that rank for “is [brand] legit”. Revenue sits on a handful of top lists and the reviews behind them.

Starts with: the top lists per market, the review method, and pruning the reviews that earn nothing.

iGaming affiliate SEO

Comparison and bonus site

Bonus, free-spins and no-deposit pages whose terms change weekly and which an operator’s compliance team reads line by line.

Starts with: the bonus page template, terms checked against the source, and what each market lets a bonus page say.

iGaming affiliate SEO

Tipster and odds media

Previews, picks and odds comparison that follow the fixture calendar, with pages that expire after every match and a few evergreen pages that carry the year.

Starts with: which league and event pages to keep, which to retire, and the season calendar.

SEO for betting affiliates

Affiliate group

Several sites across markets and languages, often on shared templates and shared links, where one penalty can reach every site in the group.

Starts with: which site earns most per position, and what the sites share that Google can see.

iGaming affiliate SEO

Streamer and creator brands

An audience built on video and social, with a site that should rank for the creator’s own name and the reviews their viewers search for afterwards.

Starts with: the brand results for the creator’s name, then the review and bonus pages the audience looks for.

Brand results and reputation

Why affiliate growth is its own job

An affiliate site is judged harder than an operator’s and earns from fewer pages. Four things follow, and they decide whether a site that ranks today still earns next year.

  1. 1

    Revenue sits on a few pages

    A handful of top lists and reviews per market carry most of the money. The plan is built page by page against what each one earns, not against traffic.

  2. 2

    Google’s spam policies name affiliate tactics

    Thin affiliation, scaled content, expired domains and parasite pages are each in Google’s spam policies. A plan that leans on any of them has a date on it.

  3. 3

    The operator’s compliance team reads your pages

    In regulated markets the operator answers for what its affiliates publish, so a bonus page that breaks the market’s rules can cost the deal, not just the position.

  4. 4

    The shelf now includes AI answers

    When a player asks an assistant which casino to trust, the answer is built from a short list of review sites per market. Being on that list is the new top three.

Where organic sits in an affiliate business

Organic is most affiliates’ main channel, but not the only one. This is what gates each, and what organic work changes about it.

ChannelWhat gates itWhat organic work changes
Organic searchCore updates, Google’s spam policies and reviews guidanceThe money-page positions the business lives on, held with tactics the next update does not take away
AI answersWhich review sites a model reads for a market’s questionA place on the short list of sites cited when a player asks an assistant which casino to trust
Operator dealsRevenue share and CPA terms set by the operator, and its compliance review of your pagesPositions you hold are what you negotiate with; pages that pass compliance keep the deal
Paid trafficAd platforms restrict gambling ads by market and licence, and programme terms restrict what you may bid onTraffic you do not pay for click by click, so the margin on each player stays yours
Community, video and emailEach platform’s own rules, and an audience you have to buildThe brand searches that audience makes afterwards land on your site, not on a competitor’s

We run the first two rows and the organic side of the last. Deals, paid traffic and your own audience stay with you; the audit says where our plan touches them.

What affiliates take from us

The affiliate SEO page carries the method, the policies and the rules by market. The others are the parts affiliates most often take on their own.

  • iGaming affiliate SEO

    Money pages by market, technical SEO for large review estates, review content, links, update recovery and AI citations, under one plan.

  • Casino link building

    Editorial placements chosen by audience, every one shown before it is bought, and the checks to run on any publisher list.

  • Casino content writing

    Reviews, top lists, bonus and game pages written to Google’s reviews guidance and checked against each market’s rules.

  • Casino reputation management

    What a player finds next to your site’s name, from Trustpilot and Reddit to “is [site] legit” searches.

The order we work in, for an affiliate

The same four steps for any affiliate business. You can stop after the first one and keep everything we found.

  1. 1

    Audit

    Weeks 1–2

    Which pages earn, which pages are a risk under Google’s spam policies, what the next update is likely to hit, and what each fix is worth. Fixed fee, delivered as a prioritised plan.

  2. 2

    Money-page map

    Months 1–2

    One primary search per page, so your own pages stop competing with each other, and the pages that earn first in the queue.

  3. 3

    Content and pruning

    Months 2–6

    Reviews rebuilt the way Google’s reviews guidance asks, bonus terms checked at the source, and the thin pages that drag the site down retired or merged.

  4. 4

    Links and AI citations

    From month 3

    Placements that pass an audience test, and the work that puts your pages on the list AI assistants cite for your market, tracked on a fixed set of player questions.

How we work with affiliates

The terms that matter before the first call.

Affiliates of licensed operators only

Your site promotes operators licensed in the markets it targets. An affiliate sending players to unlicensed operators puts the whole link estate at risk, ours included.

One affiliate per market

If a competitor of yours is with us in that market, we say so on the first call. We also work with operators; if one of them is an operator you promote or compete with on its brand terms, you hear that before you sign.

Fixed fee or revenue share

A fixed-fee audit, $6,500, then either a retainer from $6,000 a month for one market or a revenue share agreed per site. Either way the plan is the same, and it is reported against what the pages earn.

Your site, your assets

The page map, the content and the list of every link placement are yours, whether we keep working together or not. Thirty days’ notice, no minimum term.

How you will know it is working

One monthly report, page by page, against what the pages earn.

Money-page positions and clicks

For the primary search of every page in the plan, in each market.

Clicks out to operators

From your own tracking, by page, so a position is read against what it sends.

First deposits and revenue

Where your programmes report them and you share them with us. Traffic on its own is not a result.

AI citations

Whether your pages are cited, and which competitors are, on a fixed set of player questions per market.

Who we are not right for

Three cases where the honest answer is someone else, said before the call.

An operator looking for an affiliate manager

We do not recruit affiliates, run a programme or broker traffic. For an operator’s own organic growth, the operators page is the place to start.

A new site on a small budget

At our retainer floor a new affiliate site with no revenue yet is better served by a freelancer and its own writing.

Affiliates of unlicensed operators

We work only with sites that promote operators licensed in the markets they target.

Running a licensed casino or sportsbook rather than an affiliate site? The plan is different, and so is the page: Who we work with: operators.

Questions affiliates ask

What does a casino affiliate marketing agency do?

The phrase covers two different businesses. Some agencies run an operator’s affiliate programme: they recruit affiliates and manage the deals. Others grow the affiliate’s own business: the site, its positions and the players it sends. We are the second kind, and only the organic part of it: search, content, links and AI answers.

Do you work on revenue share?

Yes, or on a fixed fee; we agree which per site. The start is the same either way: a fixed-fee $6,500 audit. After it, a retainer from $6,000 a month for one market, or a revenue share. A revenue share works best on incremental, attributable revenue, with a cap, an end date and audit rights written in.

You work with operators too. Is that a conflict?

It can be: an operator’s brand-result work competes with affiliates’ brand-review pages. That is why we take one operator and one affiliate per market, and why, if we already work with an operator you promote or compete with on its brand terms, we tell you on the first call, before you sign.

Can you recover a site after a core update?

We start by saying what it was before touching anything: a core update, a spam policy, a manual action or a technical failure, read page by page from Search Console before and after the rollout. The fix is written for that cause. Recovery after a core update usually waits for the next one, and we say so.

Do you run affiliate programmes for operators?

No. We do not recruit affiliates, manage deals or broker traffic. For an operator, we run its own organic growth: the brand results, the money pages, links and AI answers.

What does it cost?

The audit is a fixed $6,500, delivered in two weeks. Retainers start at $6,000 a month for one site in one market and scale with sites and markets; a revenue share is the alternative, agreed per site. Thirty days’ notice, no minimum term.

Start with the audit.

Tell us the site and the markets. In two weeks you get which pages earn, which are a risk, what the next update is likely to hit, and what the first quarter would look like. If we are not the right fit, we will say so.

We reply within one business day, from a person.

Two fields. We work the rest out on the call.
