FROM THE FORUMS #9 Sherlock 4 June 2025, 1:54 pm Public Member There is another interesting economic theory that says the only real money — economic profit — can be made on unmatured markets. Markets mature as entrepreneurs come in, profits drop, and the market becomes competitive and uninteresting. This market has somewhat matured. It is not interesting anymore and it is time to move on. “ Reply With Quote #7 Sherlock 4 June 2025, 10:15 am Public Member The affiliate business is not producing an economic profit anymore, especially for new affiliates. It is better to be a plumber (no irony). “ Reply With Quote #8 NoDepositCasinos 4 June 2025, 1:26 pm Public Member Is it still profitable? I think it is; otherwise, none of us would still be doing it. But the landscape has definitely changed. Fifteen to 20 years ago, it was easier to rank a site and earn profits that most of us would find acceptable. Now, it takes more time, there’s more competition, and whether the profits are acceptable is a personal decision. For example, what I consider acceptable living in Latin America isn’t the same as what someone in the U.S. might expect. Every market has its challenges, and it’s a personal choice whether the potential profit justifies them. “ Reply With Quote #10 Adam Axelsson 12 June 2025, 6:08 am Private Member Due to the nature of YMYL niches, very little AI implementations (so far) have impacted the search behavior of casino-related keywords. #11 Pokerface 29 June 2025, 12:37 pm Public Member The affiliate model indeed will be around for a long time. How that looks in the future may change, but affiliation has become an important factor to promote products and services. Almost everything you see promoted or reviewed these days has affiliation associated to it. It can be a much less expensive means for a company to promote their products rather than directly promoting themselves. “ Reply With Quote The online gambling niche seems less affected compared to others. Still, Google is favoring strong brands over the traditional “keyword approach.” But building a strong brand around a casino comparison website is still very much possible, and something I have been focusing on a lot. “ Reply With Quote Yes, the affiliate model still remains profitable and we know a bunch of publishers that boosted their projects during this year. With the right strategy, GEOs, and offers, there’s strong potential for continued success. 16 GPWAtimes.org
