Wow, so many answers here!
I didn't expect to get any, so that's why I am a bit late on the answers.
...I would suggest that you add more reviews to your site, we have a thread here with lists of casinos here in the forum so you could go through the list and select some that you can try I just tire and give your honest opinion about them since you gave us your words that you won’t be bought off, I’ll try to search for the thread and add it to my post to make it more easier for you.
[table Withdrawal Fees and Withdrawal Amounts on Crypto CasinosThanks! That's a great list on withdrawal fees you linked, helps me a lot on the reviews.
There are many gambling sites on this forum, you can see them on gambling board. Most are trustworthy and we are satisfied with how they are operating. That is why some of us may not know about Bspin.io, the gambling site is not having announcement or official thread nor having an official account on this forum.
The work is made easy for you on this forum, you will see lists of gambling sites that we mostly use on gambling board and you can see many of them on the link Cantsay included in his post.
Thanks, I will definitely follow Bitcointalk for casino experiences and add them to my reviews.
Welcome to the Bitcointalk forum! Hopefully you will enjoy your stay with us and become an important part of the gambling community! Maybe even part of the entire community
Although I understand you wish to market your website as one of a kind, and as much respect I have for teachers and physicists, it seems strange to add physics to your casino reviewing website brand. How does being a physicist fit into the whole theme? I myself have a physics background as well as a marketing background. You might want to work on your image a bit, since it seems to be all over the place. Concentrate on one thing at a time and prod around to see what people respond to, the most. And not just any people. You need to concentrate on getting the right audience. Posting here was a good first step.
Thank you for your feedback, appreciate it! About my image on the site, I pondered for months for the right name and domain for my new site. But this is what I go with, it just feels right
Maybe I'll write a blog post about the whole process and the 100-200 domain names that I didn't pick
This you mentioned is a great advantage that people in the bitcointalk forum has. We do not bother ourselves with external review sites because bitcointalk has ways of doing its own review naturally. The two known ways are;
- Through the casinos Ann thread
Here discussion goes on and of you follow such discussions keenly you will understand if the casino is genuine or not.
- Through the forum trust system
If a casino is cheating or scamming it will not take much for members of BTT especially the DT to leave tag and flag on the profile.
This is exacly why I am here. Scammy casinos can't survive the trust system/reviews of Bitcointalk and they can be spotted easily. My plan is to build a "bridge" between review sites and the reviews in Bitcointalk. Many people who Google crypto casino reviews can't find these Bitcointalk threads as Google rarely lists them on search results. So I try to add a lot of Bitcointalk reputation to my reviews, so people can make a better choice.
But the work just started and I have a long way to go
I don’t think it’s safe to generalize this statement of yours, yes the forum has been useful in providing us with information about casinos but that does not mean that every forum member here does not seek out information about casinos from external sources, aside that we still have review sites of forum members that are doing explicitly well and this could be a part of them depending on how the Op builds this site.
So I don’t see any issues with this site, as long we’ll get legit reviews and not paid reviews that will make users fall for a scam casino then I’m okay with it.
That's my plan to be 100% legit now and in the future. Money will never affect my review content. I still have affiliate links to get some income to cover my living costs, but I don't really need more money now than that. So I plan to keep it legit, it's the only way to stand out in the sea of biased review sites.
I prefer to review your review site.
When it comes to review sites and giving reviews, reputation is everything you did the right thing by introducing yourself by giving a lot of yourself you established trust and transparency I instantly became your fan because of how you present yourself and being honest on what you can do.
I'd like to commend you for picking the right script which is WordPress, it's a customized theme I wonder if you plan to shift to a magazine review theme, but I'm sure you can fully customize your theme to make it a stand-out review site.
It's better to include a newsletter campaign so your followers can subscribe.
I appreciate a lot direct feedback, thanks
My plan is to be transparent now and in the future. It's the only way to stand out.
My site runs on Wordpress, right. The background structure/theme is Generatepress (the best IMO) and the style theme is my custom modification from several ready themes from Site Library. My big plan is to be first informative and clear, and the styling things come later. That's why my site looks a little simple. But I like it.
Good tip on the newsletter, I will add it to my site at some point when I have the time.
Well, first, I did say welcome to bitcointalk,
But just like you have said or talked about some crypto review site promoting casinos that shouldnt be promoted all for the money(affiliate commission), and you saying that you are completely independent from such practices, even if I personally would agree with you, you will also have to agree with me that some of this review sites that's have compromised their reputation for affiliate commission, also started their review journey with this same line of thoughts and plans, but along the way, I believe they were presented with an offer they possibly can't refuse, so they had to accept.
So for now, what exactly or how rather, should or can we completely agree with you that you also won't compromise if in the future, one of this casinos approach you and offered you a life changing sum of money to write untrue testimonies about them, what exactly is the guarantee that you won't accept the money and compromise?.
A good question! I am now living a happy life and I have all the things I would want. I am also almost debt-free. More money would buy me a better car or something, but I really don't need anything now. So I think I can resist the temptation if somebody offers me money to compromise a review.
Also, if I compromised my reviews at some point, I think people will spot that easily. So with compromised reviews my site actually cannot succeed in the long term. The only way to be the best and most trusted casino review site is to be trusted and transparent, now and in the future. I have analyzed tons of review sites (cryptos and non-crypto) and trustworthiness actually means success these days. Google is so good in spotting helpful content with AI (and gets better all the time) so compromised sites can't rank on Google (there are few exceptions, but that's an another story).
Right now I haven't worked full time for few years, but this CryptoPhysicist project seems so interesting I am developing it almost every day. However, I am not so rich I would't need some money to cover monthly living costs, so that's why my site has affiliate links. But they are totally optional for readers, one can go to casino sites not using them.
But I agree 100% on your point on review sites turning false, when the right amount of money is offered on commissions. Trust me it happens a lot in casino and crypto casino affiliate business, I know it from my inside sources
It is nice to see you here. I will commend you for putting up this task OP making reviews on casino sites for members here to see for themselves and decide on the best option that suits them fine. Of a truth most reviews are fabricated and fake just to get traffic to their website and funny enough these review sites benefit from the affiliation because if anyone registers through their link they have a percentage discount for them so that sometimes makes them do otherwise not minding the repercussions for such act.
Nevertheless, the casino you have mentioned looks strange to me. Although it is my first time of hearing of such casino here because I am very sure their presence is not recognised here and as such looks new to members here. If you feel they are good and you have had enteraction with them and as you have said to have reviewed their casino, then you can advise them to identify here so we can know who they really are because we would really need to do our own checks as well.
If I may ask you, what mechanism do you use for reviewing a casino and do you work with team to do the review or you do it yourself? I will also want you to come up plane telling us your affiliation with the reviewed sites because it is certain that you will have bonus for anyone who registers through your website.
Thanks! Bspin.io was selected for the first casino, since I reviewed it on my old review site back in 2019 for the first time and I had good feelings about it back then. I thought I take a new look. I also mention in my review that the online reputation is almost nonexistent (Reddit, Bitcointalk, everywhere), so you are 100% right on your point.
I will open up my mechanism more on my general review page, when I have the time to write it. But shortly: I will register on the site with an anonymous account that can't be traced to my affiliate site. I test, deposit, play, withdraw. Then I write about my experiences. I also search online for possible hints on good/bad reputation on Reddit, Trustpilot, Bitcointalk and other trusted sources that I don't know yet (please hint if you know some!).
I am also 100% transparent on my site that all links marked with * are affiliate links. They are totally optional for users to click. I need money to cover my living costs as running the site has a ton of work in the end. Nobody wants to work for free, so that's why I have affiliate links. I talk to casino affiliate managers on email about commissions, their logos etc. things, but I will never accept requests to make the reviews better or biased. I create the reviews and casinos just have to accept what I write
You have some archives of those casinos that you've reviewed? Well, welcome back I guess and would love to recommend your site in the future if I found your site is really be of great help. You have competition here if you're talking about review sites but the more the better and the right time to start is, to start that reviews of yours. Good luck!
I don't have control anymore on my old reviews as the site was sold. A lot of time has passed so I think it's time to create new reviews anyhow.
But thanks a lot for the kind words
Based on your about me, you are someone who can give a good review, the community needs a lot of review sites for comparison I just hope that you will call spade a spade and be transparent and fair on all your reviews not because you are getting earnings from being an affiliate of casinos, that's one of the temptation of some reviewers they prefer earnings to transparency so if you can pass this criteria you will have many followers and your review site will be trusted.
Thanks for the kind words also! I try to keep transparent and trustworthy on my reviews, even though I (may) earn affiliate commission (some day).
