New Poker Advertising Portal Launches

www.online-texas-holdem-poker.ws goes live with preferential rates for advertisers

Monday 22nd November 2004

A new site, dedicated to the promotion of online poker has launched this week, offering up-to-the-minute news and tips on everything from how to get started playing poker to where to play the best tournaments online. To celebrate its launch the site is offering ‘first through the door’ advertisers preferential rates.

This is a great opportunity for people offering online poker, to be able to reach out and connect with every day internet surfers,” said Laurence Michaels, CEO of operators Laurence Michaels Associates. “Online poker is a growing industry. The credibility of online poker is developing at an astonishing rate. Nearly every online poker room has a well known poker professional to add legitimacy to its core business. Search engine giants such as Google and Yahoo have painted online poker with the same brush as online casinos. When they made their decision to stop allowing ads for gaming, and lumped casinos and poker together, they made a mistake. Poker is a sport that requires deep concentration and a great deal of skill. With the growth of televised poker events and the fact that any good bookshop keeps its poker books section in a prominent place, is proof that no one can stop the growth of online poker.”

“We are entering a highly competitive market at a time when the market is calling out for good media outlets. Our site will only go from strength to strength. We are currently in talks with a well-known personality from the world of poker to write for us on a full time basis. This will only enhance and enrich the content on http://www.online-texas-holdem-poker.ws and make it more appealing to prospective players,” added Jeremy Rayner, VP of marketing.
