I am wondering if there are any PPC services which offer gambling.

Most biggest PPC services arn't allowing to advertise it. Would be helpfull if you guys could provide with alternatives of how to advertise it, because it's really hard to build traffic for gambling related websites.

Thank you
 


There's only one agency that I know of that allows gambling but it's pretty easy to spin a profit around, GambAds.com. They do geo targeting also so it's pretty good.
 
1. Set up a gambling portal. Poker portal. Bingo portal.
2. Bid on gambling specific keywords e.g. play poker, play free slots, play roulette. Theyll get approved provided your index page looks like its talking about non real $ internet casino games.
3. Have these free games on your portal (you can find them anywhere)
4. Load secondary game pages with tons of casino banners. Embed banners in the games themselves.
5. Go to town and send the traffic.

Keep in mind US laws discourage promotion of gambling to US traffic so I'd set up offshore hosting, push intl traffic, you get the drift though.

Well yes and no. Do you care about going to jail and/or paying enormous fines? Michigan and Utah brought new child protection laws via email into place around '06. You would have to pay them to scrub your data and pull out any underage kids that had signed up for the registry. And the fee was ridiculous back then, we used to spend like $1000 per 100,000 names to scrub or something along those lines, it was insane. Michigan I believe has the criminal penalties for even one violation, I believe Utah is civil only.

You can try and scrub out Mich/Utah by IP but that doesnt always work and there are no guarantees. Likewise, you can just mail international names if you want to play it safe. More work than the gaming website, though.. trust me on this. You have no control with international email and can get fucked by all the honeypots and traps out in other countries. I used to do it and stopped... wasnt worth the headache.
 
What do you mean by bid on specific keywords? When I made a gambling ad on adwords they reviewed that ad and dissaproved ... Now I want to advertise non-gambling related content and Google dissaproved my ad again saying that their decisions is final and they will not provide any info why they made that choice.

@alex - gambling related keywords.. I believe I mentioned some. e.g. "play roulette", "play slots"... if you have a website where these games reside and theyre play for fun games, you should be fine.

@WildGunner - not sure about Canada and anti gaming, last I heard there was a bill there they were trying to push to ban it...

Actually there were news recently and they said that that gambling ban is prolonged for 6 more months. What it means is that it will be enforced only after 6 months from now. Because banks have troubles implementing the systems which would prevent money depositing into gambling sites.

They said Poker industry alone grew into 16 billion industry!!!! :)

I need to monetize on this before it's to late.

If China will legalize online gambling some day it will be huge !!!! :)
