Advertizing a gambling/dice game - need opinions, thanks!

[pooya87]

We are already doing:
* sig campaign on BitcoinTalk
* in-site referral program
* started Twitter giveaways and planning a few more

But I am looking at other options and was thinking about checking advertizing - CPM or CPC. Since I have never advertized a gambling site, I can see there are already a few Bitcoin-centric advertizing networks,

you are already doing fine. you and about advertising networks, don't go crazy with them but a CPM ad is not a bad idea to have among your methods.
you can also advertise on the forum: this round: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1766144.0

you can also have social media campaigns, where people with many followers on twitter or facebook friends make topics about you and you pay them.

one thing to know for long term is consistency in your advertisement. advertising a month and spending lots of money in that month they stopping all of them because you didn't get enough traffic through them is bad for business.

advertisement is first for brand recognition and then generating traffic.

You should not focus only on advertising networks in case you want to advertise your site, you can buy advertising area for specific time in a popular crypto sites, like coinmarketcap or newsbtc, this way can bring better results in my opinion, on coinmarketcap the minimum budget is $100 which is not so high, and I think there are a lot of additional options depending on your budget.

Have try to submit your website in some gambling directories? There used to be couple sites with this: freecrypto.co or topbitcoinsites.com - I dont know if they are still operational.
Or advertise on other forums as well: https://cryptocointalk.com/forum/2419-games-gambling/ or https://bitcoingarden.org/forum/index.php?board=21.0

This is a good suggestion. One thing I would like to say is awareness doesnt come overnight. It takes a while until the site youre advertising gets enough name recall from the people who keep seeing your ads. Do you ever wonder why those annoying ads on TV keep getting played and repeated over and over? They do that for name recall purposes. Some become timeless and have become a part of our culture.

yeh buddy, Dont worry your site will become popular gradually. In my opinion, signature campaign in this forum itself is enough. I came to know about your site through the signature campaign in this forum only. If you want, you can do one thing ,you can advertise in coinzilla.io.
In my opinion advertising in coinzilla is a better option than mellow ads because most of the sites contains coinzilla ads. So it will help to reach wider audience. Specially their floating banner is pretty good. In my opinion those who hate advertisements also will look at this floating banner. Its a good option.

i think not just submitting the sites in gambling directories that related with crypto currency but for the normal directories because i think if we submitted into many directories sites, our sites will get more incoming links and it was counted by search engine and our rank in the search engine will get a good position.

advertise on other forums is good to because other people will see our sites and its a good chance for our sites to be visited by more people and i think if they are interesting with the sites, they will playing gambling too.

Advertising in sites outside the cryptocurrency community or forums that have no idea what Bitcoin is will be a waste of time. It will take more effort because you have to convince them to use BTC. Theres also no assurance that they will use BTC so why bother. Its better to advertise to the market who already knows what BTC and altcoins are. Its easier. What the service should do is convince that market why they are better.

Hi,

I would like to hear your opinion (or about your experience in) advertizing a gambling site. I have created and am running YOLOdice.com, yet another gambling site. Now the thing is it's doing pretty well, but is quite young (little over 1 month). It already has investors, players and I am sure it's on the right way to become a big one, but I would like to speed the process a bit with advertizing.

We are already doing:
* sig campaign on BitcoinTalk
* in-site referral program
* started Twitter giveaways and planning a few more

But I am looking at other options and was thinking about checking advertizing - CPM or CPC. Since I have never advertized a gambling site, I can see there are already a few Bitcoin-centric advertizing networks, I would really like to hear some opinions if you decide to share!

Thanks and cheers,
Ethan

You have done good jobs for advertising a gambling, you are already doing signature campaign,
referral program and Twitter giveaway,
you just need to focus on your advertising right now because your promote is very new
and build gambling business is not easy needs time.

I think you should approach people who like to gamble and do it daily and maybe offer them a position to help promote you for casino tokens.
Gambling is like a hobby, when you are a gambler you not only spend a lot of time doing it, but you also know other gamblers and share your experience. If someone like that leaves his casino to play at yours it means you're doing something right.

I thought about advertising methods some more and I realized that the best form of advertisement is offering the best level of service.
When you will gather dedicated base of users they will spread the word about how good the service is.
Media and Marketing researchers find that "word of mouth" is more effective than other types of marketing.

It will take more than that. The new site should show that theyre better than their competitors. Bitcoin is a tough market because most of us want to hold all our coins and spend as little as possible. If you want your site to prosper you should make the games as addictive as possible. Look at the darknet drug markets, all their customers are addicted to the products there! They keep coming back!

well your doing a good job already for having that advertisement strategy already and i think you need to give a fix rate on twitter campaign so that your participants may obliged to tweet/retweet to spread the word about your site and also facebook campaign can truly can help you with that since the most large audience are there and i believe that is the most effective among others but the question is how long you can sustain them since running an advertisement and having a great audience will not take for shorter time it takes long time of introducing so that people would not forget the one you advertise on.
