Hi, I'm wondering if anyone is in the same boat. When I started matched betting (and finally got the hang of it), I already had most of the accounts advertising start up offers from previous attempts. I have very quickly got to the point where I am earning between £1 and £4 per reload offer. Is this normal? I probably do about 4 offers a week, including the Sky Bet club one every week. I am going to start the Coral club one this week. Any advice would be welcome. The way its going at the moment, I'm not sure if my OddsMonkey £17.99 is worth it. Dont know if anyone could suggest any alternatives? Also does anyone know if there is a free oddmatcher calculator on line at all? Thanks
Just my two pennies worth....
When I started MB and got the hang of it, it was pretty easy, but then you have to switch from the really easy sign up money to the reloads and it was a big shift. I still don't think I have a "set" list of things that I do every week and still need to work on what I do to make money.
You do need to try a number of different things and see which ones you like doing/have the time to do. Generally the reloads you are making smallish amounts, but it is all about volume. As you are on oddsmonkey, you should look at the daily calendar and then order it by profit. Then take a look through the top profit (including potential profit ones).
A few things worth doing:
- Definitely do the casino sign ups!
- Subscribe to the price boosts thread (community/existing offers/offers you found/price boosts NO CHAT). This is easy money. Most are on weekends or big events (weekday big football matches etc)
- Always do free spins. My experience of these is that I make about £20-£30 a month just on free spins.
- Do low risk casino offers - I don't bother with anything below £1 potential profit as the variance on the slots never really makes it worth it for me. I always click on the casino offer I am thinking of doing and scan through the comments in the community (you can click straight to it from the offer). It gives you a feel for whether the offer looks worth doing or there is a big variance that I don't fancy.
I think it is worth paying Oddsmonkey (or PA etc) to get the oddsmatcher; that saves tons of time! The simple calculator that they have is easy to replicate yourself (I have it in my spreadsheet to double check I have done the right bets), but if you get into ACCAs and horse racing then their other tools are also definitely needed!
Also, flick through the community. You get an idea of how people are making their money. Not all of it will be for you risk wise etc, but you might find more things you hadn't thought of doing.
