Is poker niche still hot?

6 replies
I haven't thought about this in a long time but I know that online poker was very big through the early to mid 2000s and I was wondering if this niche is still as productive and profitable as it probably was back then. I was playing poker and actually doing pretty well trying to earn sign-up bonuses from certain websites that I was playing on. I know that those were actually affiliate links and someone was getting paid a bunch of money on those sign-ups and probably from the rake I paid.

Is this niche still good to market in or is online poker dead now or not what it used to be? Anyone making money in this niche today?

    Yes! Of course. Dude, the gambling niche is a billion dollar industry. The only thing is that it is SUPER competitive. I'll stay out of it personally.

    Hi there,

    Yes, it sure is! But more research and knowledge on this niche would help a lot to establish credibility, as you will be having lots of competitors if you turn into this niche. But yeah... it's worth a shot, so good luck!
