Sports Betting Affiliates: Getting Into The Game Without Risking A Dime

Posted by Nick Niesen on October 26th, 2010

Imagine being able to get a cut of the action in online sports betting. The multi-billion dollar industry is one of the largest current online businesses and with each day the empire expands a little further. With literally millions of people betting each day on various sports and events, it is little wonder how it has become such a lucrative commercial venture. But how would it be possible for an everyday Internet user to get a piece of this industry. With many people unlikely to have the capital to launch and run successful sports betting site, this is an unlikely option. You may also be considering a betting strategy or software program 'guaranteeing' instant results. Similarly these scams require patience and rarely produce on the level that they claim. No, the simplest way to get a piece of the sports betting pie is by becoming an affiliate.

There are no risks, no set up costs and requires very little effort. It works simply as a way of rewarding website owners for bringing new customers to an affiliate site. There are no hidden catches to worry about, the sports betting sites or the related affiliate program will provide all advertising materials, each containing individual URL's that indicate that you have forwarded the player on. From there everything is automated, the sports betting site or affiliate program monitor all the money and the play, leaving them to calculate your daily, weekly or monthly tallies.

As an affiliate you earn a percentage of each of the players you introduce money generated. All the affiliate marketer needs to do is sit back and wait for the checks to roll on in. However the more proactive and business minded affiliate can seek out more customers by simply increasing their own marketing. It seems a little absurd to promote a marketing site but the most successful affiliates need to do this in order to increase their hits. The more hits the site encourages the higher the likelihood that visitors will follow the links and become fully signed up members of a sports betting site.

In return the sports betting sites look after their affiliates by keeping members for as long as possible. If an affiliate is involved in a scheme that rewards them for the duration of a player's lifetime on a site then it is in both their interests to maintain the guests for as long as possible. By offering extra services, opportunities and bonuses to current members the sports betting site stands a greater chance of becoming an individuals preferred online betting sites. The introduction of casinos and poker rooms have also aided the sports sites in attracting wider ranges of people and bringing back old members. With the interest in online betting appearing to be ceaseless it is one of the most exciting and profitable to become involved in as an affiliate.
