There are books on how to build altcoins but I don't see any in-depth guidance on how to build a gambling site.
It seems to be all trial and error.
If you know of any technique or site or forum I would appreciate hearing about it.

It is not that easy to build a gambling site. You could use some premade scripts and stuffs for your casino but they are no way secure enough. Again, those will be some generic scripts and you won't be attracting many people. This is not a simple thing to do. You will have to plan and manage a lot of thing before you will be able to make something out of your casino. But then again, there are loads of well known crypto casino which means you will have to outsmart your competitors by providing something unique. There is no reason for someone to join a new casino that can not provide something new that is not available on the current known casinos.

The most important thing is always the marketing.

I became friends with one of the biggest casino operators of crypt at one time (they are not longer famous but they were probably the most wagered at one point) and we talked about business all the time, he liked talking to me because I always said what could be improved and he cared for such things. He built the whole website for 50 thousand dollars, now that is not a small amount but that is not that big neither, after all who doesn't spend either 50 thousand dollars on building a casino or at least 50 thousand dollars worth of effort. He said that was the simplest thing because he was capable of affording good developers and give them salary and so forth which made his website good, however even with a good website the marketing was the biggest challenge.

Dude had to spend 10 thousand dollars per week just on bitcointalk with ads and signature campaigns to get more famous not talking about all other places and ads, so it took him about half a million dollars spent until he was making more money than he was spending.

I think this regulations should be stated after there must have been a good plan on the site creation on ground and this can only be achieved by a good developer or if he can get a good one to teach him, though he should be ready to pay much. What the OP is truly in need of now is how to get started not the Dos and Don’t, but still thanks for sharing this as it might be helpful for someone who already knows the way forward.

I also like to know why KYC should be remotely associated with a gambling site, is it so compulsory. What if I like to create one with including the regulation of KYC at all on my site, how would it affect the site? More light on this please::

First of ill like to say that learning how to build a site will take a lot of time and I don’t even think that is necessary, it’s better to just pay the developers and watch them give a better job except there is no fund to pay for this and I don’t expect that from someone with such great proposal, I believe he is financially capable for this project.

KYC is important because before any site gets licensed by the government it must have a KYC regulation, this is not a compulsory policy from the site operators but government, and moreover it’s a policy that is effective to eradicate fraudulent activities and all forms of criminal acts.

You are right that there are different guides on how to build a site but my suggestion is that you have to search for the guide that suits your needs or a guide that you are looking for or maybe you'll combine the tips you'll use when you are building your own gambling site.

You need developers to build such a decent gambling site, this is the easiest way I can suggest.

Also you can take courses like Computer Programming (Web development) if you just willing to learn and happy to understand everything.

Why would anyone have to undergo the stages of taking a computer programming course just because he’s interested in building a gambling site? I hate when people stress themselves over issues money can easily solve. Anyone that is willing to build a gambling site should be financially stable to be able to make this decision, so it’s just better to pay a software developer for this and expect to get a good job.

I suggest that the OP would have to be prepared to spend money, especially on advertisement. It’s one thing to create a casino site and another thing to drive traffic down, so he should be ready for the challenges ahead.

I doubt someone will write a book about building a gambling site. I will list out a few Do's and Dont's while building one.

1. Don't use third-party games or those shitty scripts, create your games from scratch.
2. Get your stuff developed from professional developers who have done similar work before.
3. Security/Authentication should be cross-tested with a number of tests and ran through the ethical hackers group.
4. If you don't have enough money for advertising and house, just give up the idea.
5. KYC should be remotely associated with your gambling site.

I think that in this case building a gambling site is more complicated then you believe it to be
First you need to have enough BITCOIN that if someone wins a jackpot you must pay
You need to pay licensing from where you are in the world and there are also IT cost
It is a expensive business to start i believe or there would be thousands of them not hundreds

You should have refer to programmers. Usually in an online gambling sites the technicalities in making it will be taking cared of by the programmers. Since online gambling sites is not that really known to people around tge world especially those who make books.about it then it would be harder to find a guide on how to establish a an online gambling sites. There are many factors also to consider and that would take time also to implement in the likes of the legalities and end user agreements.

Other than that is the financial capacity of a project that could cater especially if one just started and found out to have a huge player that bet huge then the prize would be also huge so one must be ready about it as a start up.

I think this has been discussed severally on this forum. You should probably search for similar topics using the search bar.

I read they are quite expensive to build but it is doable.

https://thinkmobiles.com/blog/how-make-betting-app/

You can find many more website that will explain about build a gambling site including to set everything. Perhaps, it will cost you big money before you can run your own gambling site, so you need to calculate your budget before you build the website. Or you can hire some coders or programmers that could installed software for building a gambling website or build the website from scratch.

Good resources, this is for the actual building, this does not yet include running a huge promotion to compete with big gambling sites that are already in the market, you will have to spend thousands of dollars more for promotion, this is why big gambling sites can launch a sister company, because they already had resources and funds.

Thank you. I cannot imagine how much money we need to promote the gambling website since there already the old gambling website with good reputable and they have big members. The budget for promotion could be the biggest expenses that we might need to know because the promotion will not just stop until we can get the members, but we need to promote in every time to reach more players to come to our website. But sometimes, if we are lucky, we don't need to spend too much money on promotion especially if we have known some big gambling website and they help us to introduce our site in their site so their members will also come to our gambling website.

You need to have a good script and implement good safety measures. You need to have a good bankroll and stability and some patience to succeed.
It's surprising to see how a dull sites like bustadice and crypto-games are getting huge number of gamblers.

Yes, there are many costs involved to make a successful gambling site. Besides the bankroll that must be big enough to support possible initial losses, the casino owner has to make a lot of advertisements and giveaways, it's part of the marketing, to let potential customers aware about the site and its advantages.
It's not an easy task, especially now that gambling crypto industry has a strong competition between casinos. If someone wants to create a new casino, first of all it has to be original, it has to have personality.

Creating a gamblimg site is not easy because first of all you need to hire a programmer that program your gambling site and the cost is very high for sure like ten thousands dollars minimum because creating is not easy they need like few weeks or months before the gambling site will done. And also you need a big capital as start when the players win to your gambling site just incase.

There must be templates or something that has proven itself already. In the case of exchanges, I hear there is peato. I was hoping that there is something that can be built on.

All I know is there is a ready script for this and all you have to do is to manage this with a few commands, but it is very costly you need to install it on a premium host, get a premium SSL so the browser and players can trust your website and you need some people to manage like a support team.

There is no book available to learn how to create a gambling website. If you want to work as a freelancer to create other people gambling site then I will suggest you take a web development course make some experience then you will able to analyse gambling website. It's all about creativity you need to be a good programmer for that.

If you want to start your own gambling website then you need to own a good iGaming software, a gambling licence, a merchant account, a dedicated server and an experienced web developer who will design your gambling website. You will find too many gambling sites talk to their developer they will provide you with a good amount of service.

Looking for building a site as well, can you recommend someone? I need someone who can handle the web development.
