I scour many of the most popular gambling forums and news outlets every day keeping tabs on the online gambling industry. If a site listed on GamblingSiteFinder.com is involved in any sort of scandal or controversy, regardless of magnitude, you better believe I am on top of it and updating my site to reflect the news. Large scale changes or updates are even chronicled in my
changelog. For more information, check out my page regarding
how my rankings work.
👉 If you think I’ve missed a reputable site, added an untrustworthy site, or if you think my rankings are in the incorrect order, just leave me a comment in this thread or contact me on
Twitter or
Reddit. It might take me a few days or even a few weeks to get back to you, but I promise I’ll consider each and every suggestion made by my loyal readers.
Here is how I determine my rankings:
FACTORS I CONSIDER✅
Responsible Gambling ResourcesDoes your site offer players the ability to self-exclude themselves, permanently close accounts, opt-out from marketing materials, set deposit limits, conduct a “reality check”, and set parental controls? Are there links to gambling hotlines present on your site? Failure to make these resources readily available to all of your customers is an easy way to get your business removed from my site.
✅
Gaming LicenseDoes your site hold a valid gaming license – Curacao, Isle of Man, UK, etc.?
Where your iGaming license is issued from does not affect my ranking, but an unlicensed site is certainly penalized, or in almost all cases, not listed at all.
✅
Popularity/PerceptionI scour all of the major forums on a [near] daily basis making note of which sites your customers are talking about, recommending to each other, and publicly complaining about. After a trend has been established, I tweak my rankings accordingly.
✅
Customer ServiceDoes your site create a barrier between you and your customers, or do you try to connect with them? Sites with at least one “personable” representative on social media sites like Twitter, FB, Reddit, BitcoinTalk, etc. rank higher than sites that only reply with auto-generated responses via email.
✅
Transparency/FairnessDon’t give your players a reason to believe they’re being slighted. Gambling sites that proudly display fairness results from independent auditing firms are favored in my rankings over those who don’t acknowledge this. Furthermore, sites that hide important details from customers are severely penalized, or in almost every case, excluded from my site entirely. The most common examples of this include: a) Hiding bonus rollover requirements and excluded games within a wall of legal text, and b) Failure to disclose banking limits and fees until after your customer has already deposited funds.
✅
Fast PayoutsYour customers do not want to wait to receive their funds and they will complain if they don’t receive their winnings fast (regardless of your stated timeframes). Sites with hassle-free, expedited payouts perform better than sites that make customers wait for an extended period of time for a payout.
FACTORS I DON'T CONSIDER⛔
Affiliate CommissionI do my absolute best to remain unbiased. This means I do not, and will not, accept any advertising requests whatsoever. Visitors to my site can be assured that I only list the most reputable sites in each category. I often receive emails from online gambling sites offering to pay me in exchange for higher rankings. And while yes, this site is monetized using affiliate programs, I do not, and will never, rank one gambling site over another because of the commission I’ve been offered. In fact, I’m not even an affiliate for most of my highest ranked gambling sites; some of them don’t even have affiliate programs.
What is Best cryptocurrency exchange doing? When your website is only meant to rate and rank gambling website. Make is niche specific rather than confusing your visitors. Just like I got confused!
