FCP Bob 1,312 Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Poker Scout has been tracking this for quite a while. Alexa rankings aren't totally accurate and can be manipulated by websites but for this sort of fun comparison that doesn't really matter.Poker Strategy I think has most of it's traffic in languages other than English and especially German, they've been at the top of the Alexa poker rankings for a long time.What I find interesting is what's happened to Poker Road since Sebok sold his soul to UB. Traffic there has really gone down and it looks even worse when you view their traffic using traffic tracking sites other than Alexa.http://siteanalytics.compete.com/pokerroad.com/ as an example. Only 4,000 unique visitors per month which is just really tiny. Link to post Share on other sites

Jeremiah Smith is terrible and took over hosting PRR and Cash Plays which made me at least stop listening for the most part. Also the small amount of traffic their great comedy podcast Two Jacks in the Hole has brought them has probably dropped off since they started putting more of their content on their own site.

I'm sure even when they had more traffic the site wasn't bringing a lot of revenue in. It's really hard to make money on poker websites these days. The money is in the affiliate game and that is a tough business. The amount of money that's generated from banner advertising etc isn't that much. Link to post Share on other sites

The site is in no way affiliated with UB. There are no UB ads on pokerroad. I think the content has suffered due to purely money issues, along with the better hosts of prr going onto bigger things Link to post Share on other sites
