instead of just a btc ticker how bout a crypto calculator.

Not sure that's what we're missing on the site though That's just a 1 off tool

Thanks for the post, i was thinking about posting something similar a while back.
I think PO needs a combination of those things to be successful in the long run.
The reason for this is to attract many different users who have different interests
Ex. DFS, poker, sports, betting, cryptocurrency, crowdsurfing etc.
PO definitely needs more poker added back to the site as well. The site took a hit when the poker left. I know the market is challenging atm, but I feel like there is a way. Maybe use global poker idea that every hand is its own sweepstakes?
I personally would like DFS added to the site because DFS is growing overall in the general market. It may be exclusive to certain states, too.
I think there also should be similar contests to some of ones I have made and lethal has made as well. Such as Bracket challenges, MLB pools, NBA and NFL pools, etc Free rolls or other contests can attract new users and help maintain our older loyal members.
I do agree If you choose to go this route that you should change the name and rebrand to sportsowned, because there will be more than poker that is included. I believe this is the right move and will potentially attract more users to the site.
Another hypothetical idea that I had was PO creating its own crypto like pokerowned coin or sportsownedcoin that could be traded on this site or other trading sites.

Thanks for the feedback.

But when you guys just say "More Poker" I need to know who, what, where, how.. If I add more tournaments, that doesn't increase the traffic here.


I AM going to add a taste of DFS here soon in the form of quickplay which I think you will LOVE

I wouldn't rebrand the site as "SportsOwned" only because of the long history as PokerOwned, however I would consider a domain purchase (If available) for additional keyword/search engine recognition for the site. It could help with attracting new members should your internet rankings go up. SEO will improve greatly too.

I also think more poker would be great to see on the home page. Here are some other suggestions:

- Daily tasks for points or tourney entries? (such as forum posts, mini polls, consecutive daily/weekly logins and/or posts, etc.) This could help by boosting search engine rankings and increasing overall site productivity.

- Use the space as advertising space for related sites/blogs/services/products. (This may help with operating costs/revenue and also offering more to members, thus making the site more valuable.

- You can also consider adding a link or image/link to an odds calculator or various poker guides.

Hopefully these ideas help expand any direction you choose to go.

Good feedback, but if we add more poker and tasks, we will need to get more traffic here (Like the old days!)

more poker like run some sponsor series where we can get huge gts going and enough tournys so we can advertise raceway and leaderboard maybe try to create extra points for leaderboard prizes i think if u update race way and have some tournys to play and advertise the side games better and definitely need more arrows pointing to client button!! button needs to be like" here i am play poker here!!"i think bring back acr and bcp and swc freerolls and all the cross promoting i have 3 poker sites that would most likely work with u that will bring lots of traffic

[lethal2all]

oh and the crypto calculator was just side idea i thought ur so fast u could build in day

[PokerGawd]

Working on sportsowned as an additional keyword ranking for SEO purposes may help with that.

I agree with all the poker suggestions here but zab, are you talking about just for poker in the client,,,, how to improve that? Or are you able to bring back games on ACR BCP xcetera? Cuz if you are bringing back some poker there,, that would of course bring a lot more traffic


. And if you're talking about just on clients poker games ,,,We just need to have better ,,more variety of games and let all the people know that are making points on the site,,,,see that we would have more active poker here. ,,, like lethall said...

It's obvious everyone wants to see more poker. Like re is asking, are you more focusing on client or poker sites out side of PO? I would love to see PO from the old days but. Heck even client was doing good even after the other sites shut down the free rolls. Maybe starting with getting client rocking again somehow will bring traffic back. Glad to see a thread like this. I hope PO can come alive again
