Major Improvements at The Online Casino Gambling Directory

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

I have made some major improvements to The Online Casino Gambling Directory as result of the feedback that I have been getting about the site.

  • All sites have been given a Star Rating from 1 (low) to 5 (high). I assigned the ratings based on a number of factors, including length of time online, ease of deposits and withdrawals, and customer service. Look to the 5-star sites for the best in online gambling.
  • I added a new Hot Search — the 5-star sites — to make it easy to get directly to the search results that will be most useful to you.
  • The Narrow your search section on the left side of the search results page has been streamlined to make it easier to narrow your search results. Just pick an option from the drop-down lists, check boxes, and radio buttons, and the search results page is automatically updated to reflect what you’ve selected.
  • I’ve added the ability to narrow your search results based on Language and Currency. For those players outside of the United States that would like to play at a gaming site in your native language and in currencies other than USD, now you can easily locate those gaming sites using these filters in the Narrow your search section.

Thanks for the feedback, and keep it coming!

Rankings at The Online Casino Gambling Directory

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

I wanted to share with you how sites are ranked at The Online Casino Gambling Directory. In a nutshell, the sites are ranked according to how you, the users, have told me you wanted them ranked.

  • When browsing online bingo halls, online casinos, online poker rooms, online skill games sites, and online sportsbooks, the sites that are ranked highest are those that give you free money or chips to try their sites. Following the sites that give you free money or chips are those sites that offer the highest initial deposit bonus percentage — meaning that sites that offer a 400% bonus are listed above those that offer a smaller percentage.
  • When searching the directory using search terms — for example blackjack, free, or slots — the sites that are ranked highest are those that are most relevant to your search term, with sites that have your search term in their name ranked ahead of those that have it in their description. Following these sites, sites are ranked according to the rules outlined in the previous bullet, with sites that offer free chips ranked high, followed by those that offer a high initial deposit bonus.

So to summarize, sites are ranked according to what you are looking for most — relevant sites that offer free chips and a high deposit bonus. Add to this no popups, no spam, and no selling of email addresses and The Online Casino Gambling Directory is the only site you need for all your gaming!

Finding an Online Gambling Site Has Never Been Easier

Tuesday, December 12th, 2006

The Online Casino Gambling Directory has made it easier than ever to find exactly the type of online gambling site that you are looking for.

Just follow these three easy steps:

  1. Enter a search term like blackjack, backgammon, free, bingo, or tournament — whatever you’re looking for.
  2. Use the Narrow your search options to narrow your search by one or more of:
    • Site type
    • US policy
    • FREE chips
    • First deposit bonus
    • Minimum deposit to get bonus
    • Certifications
    • Site software

The search engine immediately returns your narrowed search results as soon as you click a radio button or checkbox — no need to waste an extra click on clicking a Search or Go button.

  1. Click on the name of the site that you like best in the search results list.

It’s just that easy!
