Traffic Sources in the iGaming Affiliation
Google ads (PPC)
This is a high valuable source of customers that uses the paid advertising spots of Google. The most popular approach by affiliates is with top 10 ranking brands. In the iGaming industry many refer to Google ads as just "PPC".
SEO Affiliates
Pretty straightforward, those are the affiliates that rely on search engines to rank them as higher as possible in order to generate traffic. They can either rank on strong keywords for high volumes or long tail one for the right segment of customers. Either way, this is a high profitable traffic ideal for startups as they usually work on revenue share with small CPA.
Streamers in the Gambling world
Streamers are hard to manage but amazing for branding and acquisitions. Usually they use casino budgets to play while broadcasting it. Popular platforms for streaming based on different locations are: Twitch, kick, YouTube and others.
Remarketing or retargeting
Eaitherway is correct to be used, just this traffic channel is very similar to wine. The more your brand grows and matures the better it works! It heavily relies on the traffic flow to your brand as it uses it to display ads of your casino to those customers. That not only makes them come back to your casino this increases their lifetime revenue but it also encourages those that didn't complete their registration or first deposit to give it a second try. That's the source with the best ROI as it relies purely on revenue share for the time being, aughthou it's expected to add an additional CPA to its model.
ASO
Similar to the search engines in google, ASO traffic offers optimized applications for specific keywords in the app store. Either on Android or Apple it helps you get a great amount of leads from customers that prefer the application over the browser. In their case it's not mandatory for your business to have a mobile app. What they do is, they act as a browser through the application. Meaning that the user downloads an app from which he can access the casino. Then the application opens the browser in full display masking the navigation of your mobile source, imitating a real application of your casino.
iGaming Marketing Agencies
Dangerous but profitable if managed right. Often those agencies are like a black box, they hide the traffic under different publishers which makes it very hard to manage and optimize. Unfortunately, it's common for them to change and replace publishers without notifying you. The source of traffic they bring can vary and often it consists of all of the above.
Social Traffic
Mostly relying on Meta and Tiktok but not limited to those two. This source of traffic offers high volumes of clicks and leads with very low conversions and value. The reason behind the bunk of leads and low profitability is due to the intention of the customer. Unlike the above sources, the user here does not look proactively to gamble. Meaning that the advertiser usually relies on different types of hooks in order to engage and stimulate the user to sign with your brand.
