Online gambling is a fairly new concept, and knowing which sites to bet on can be difficult. If you have just had your first online gambling experience or are an old pro, sharing your opinions with others is always important.
If you are going to go to the trouble of writing a review, you want to make it a good one and put it where people will see it. There are a few tips you should follow for reviewing online gambling sites.
Choose a Good Review Site
When you look for a gambling review site to leave your review on, you might think it is best to leave it on the first site that comes up on a Google search. However, most of the time, the first thing that comes up in a search is a paid advertisement.
You should look through a few of the sites before picking one. A good review website should be well organized and have information about gambling laws in the state where you want to gamble. It should never charge a fee to write reviews and should distinguish between the reviews by the website and the reviews of its users.
Be sure to read through a few reviews before deciding if you want to add your opinion to the site. A lot of sites out there do not do anything to verify that their reviews are real. If a casino’s reviews are 100% positive, they are probably paid for.
Write Useful Information
It is best to stick to the facts and inform the reader about important elements of the site and tell them how easy they are to use.
Let the reader know the process for setting up an account and whether you found it to be difficult or simple. People will want to know if the casino has any free spins and the policy for those free spins. Be sure to include information such as:
- Are the free spins awarded before or after a player’s first game?
- Do you have to put money in your account to get the spins?
- Are the free spins only for new players?
People will also want to know what the casino’s policies are for payouts. Some casinos may require you to have a minimum amount in your account before you can cash out.
Inform people of whether the site does direct deposit payouts or if they will have to wait for a check. They will want to ensure the games are in working order and that the site will not go down in the middle of a game.
Some people might want to know the theme of the casino because some sites have retro looks and others are full of contemporary glitz and glamor. You should describe the colors and general aesthetic of a site.
Ease of Use
If you had a customer service issue, you should share how easy it was to communicate with a customer service representative. People will also want to know if the outcome was in your favor and how long your issue took to resolve.
You should always make sure that a site is legitimate before recommending it to others. A legitimate online casino should be licensed through the Michigan Gaming Control Board.
Never take money for a review yourself because people have been sued for writing false reviews on Amazon.
What if a Casino is Doing Something Illegal?
When you set up an account with an online casino, they should always request to see your ID before you start gambling. If they do not, they are not a legitimate casino. You can write them a bad review, but it is more important to report them to the authorities.
If you encounter a casino that does not pay out money that they owe you or shortchanges you, you should contact the MGCB. You may also want to call the state attorney general. Unfortunately, some people always refuse to play by the rules.
If you love online gaming and do a lot of it, writing reviews is a great way to communicate with other gamblers. If you do some research and tell people what they most want to know, your reviews will be popular and helpful.
