Re: What if anything can we do to help WPEX gain market share?
As nice as rake-free poker sounds it is a flawed business model. Rake is a necessary evil. The money generated from rake is needed to promote a site.
Without the help of affiliates and the thousands of links and banners they create, it is extremely difficult for a small poker site to grow.
Until WPEX starts a new affiliate program, not much growth will occur. A possible change could be to start a CPA affiliate program (much like Pokerstars) and if necessary require a 1x playthrough of the rakeback payments in the sportsbook/casino.
They need to get rid of the hype of 100% rakefree and promote it as a weekly mega bonus. The more you play the bigger the bonus. They could explain that they are returning your rake in the details of the bonus but hype that some players are getting over $3k a week in bonus money.
