With Filip Podborschi, SEO Strategist at The Unit

From our experience in SEO in igaming, there are a number of areas where we see room for improvement and common mistakes which can be rectified. Let’s take a look at these facets of SEO one by one, with our best tips for how to make sure you can maximise your search ranking and drive more volume to your website.

Keyword strategy

The first thing operators should do in this area is identify the best performing keywords that result in higher search volumes on each post. It’s pages that rank rather than websites, so you need a different search intent on each page, and that increases the list of keywords you’re ranking for.

The way to do this is by checking the search volume, and then implementing the keywords according to SEO best practices, which means having primary and secondary keywords and adjusting repetition accordingly.

The common mistake we see here is that companies don’t go into enough depth when conducting competitive analysis; especially when they’re new to the industry. Identifying what exactly your competitors are doing regarding SEO is harder than it looks, and it’s an area where marketing agencies tend to be quite lazy. They may use some tools which will show the standout competitors by algorithm, but they won’t crawl for long enough to ascertain what services they offer and provide a comparison with their client’s service. You need to find out which sites could be ranking better than you, and why.

We also see issues with the ranking of sites based on the user’s location. For example, you may have a website that ranks well in Canada, and when I as a user based in Romania search for that category, I’m not going to get the same list of results as a user who is based in Canada. The best thing to do is use a VPN to gauge how your websites are ranking and performing with your specific audience in your domestic geographical area.

SEO tags optimisation

With SEO tags, which are essentially the page title and description you see on the search engine results page, the page title has the highest ranking power. Google will first check the page title to get an idea of what the page is about and what searches it is relevant for. It will then check the H1 and the content, and it may look through the H2 as well.

A common issue here is some websites have templated SEO tags, especially for the inner pages, so it’s more of a formula within the code to generate a random structure. It is very obvious they are templated and that the operator doesn’t really care about the length.

The key thing with tags is to make sure your pages have titles that don’t exceed the ideal length. This is a big mistake if you get this wrong, and it is very important to optimise your titles. SEO tags can be optimised around keywords. Once doing so, it is very important to prioritise your main pages. If you have 10 pages as part of the main menu, then you should optimise those, before optimising the inner pages.

Identifying duplicate pages is also important, as well as making sure meta inscriptions include CTAs; those inscriptions don’t impact rankings directly, but they do impact the CTR. You have to do that without being too spammy though, so it’s advisable to avoid words like ‘sale’ or calls to “CLICK HERE NOW”.

Headings

Keywords must be implemented in headings; especially in H1s and H2s. Make sure not to overuse H2s and keep them optimised for content value.

If we structure the ranking power of the elements that are bringing results, we would optimise with the page title first, H1 second, content third and H2s fourth. It is better to have five H2s with three of them being optimised around the same search intent that is highlighted in H1, than it is to have 3/10 optimised around keywords. Too many H2s will just confuse Google about your search intent. You can have similar search intent as with H1s, and also have H3s and H4s to highlight value to the reader.

Interlinking strategy

Interlinking between pages is often missing. I’m not talking about interlinking from the main menu, as every page has the ability for you to go back, but I’m talking about interlinking within content, which Google considers to be much more important, because it cares about the relevancy. Google will consider pages with high-quality content as a higher authority page.

Our advice would be to implement anchor links on both branded and non-branded keywords. You should make sure there is an anchor link to the parent page. For example, domain.com/blog is a parent for domain.com/blog/igaming-seo.

It’s very important to have child pages linking to the parent page, passing authority to the parent page. Having that interlinked structure will pass more authority to that parent page.

To explain that in a little more detail, let’s say you have a sportsbook page with 10 more child pages that reflect a particular set of sports. Having each of those 10 pages optimised so they have some authority and linking them to the parent page would pass authority to that parent page. Parent pages usually have a keyword with higher search volume, and passing as much authority as you can to the child page is very important. Too often websites lack content on child pages.

The future of SEO and experience needed

Going forward, we see AI as one of the most significant developments in SEO. At this point, we are not able to rank user engagement in AI, and it is important to keep yourself updated with how Google is reacting to this.

Google in time may provide additional options if you want to be eligible for a particular set of results in that environment. Keep an eye on what features it will offer and the types of websites. Google may consider implementing specific types of results for betting, such as displaying odds or a comparison of odds from three or four sites at the same time.

With all these issues, it is vital to have the relevant experience on board, particularly when it comes to the skill of conducting very in-depth competitor analysis, and this is something The Unit can provide. Conducting competitor analysis is something we have done across several industries, and not just in igaming. The main strength you can have with SEO is to know your competitors inside out, and those skills can be adjusted based on your needs.

It was an honour for Spintec to exhibit at G2E Las Vegas this year, after being recognised with multiple honours across the world, including Best Performing ETG Product in LATAM and Western Europe (Eilers, 2025) and Best Electronic Table Game Solution at the Asia Gaming Awards 2025.

At G2E 2025, Spintec presented an exhaustive portfolio of products that have accrued so many awards: from different games and experiences to a surprising range of settings in the Charisma Series.

The solution that garnered the most attention was the Charisma Amphitheater that can accommodate a large number of players. They can share the same dynamic, multigame experience, enjoying Roulette, Sic Bo, Craps, Blackjack, or Baccarat across automated, virtual and live platforms. The action is constant and thrilling, not just because of the varied and exciting games, but also because of the expanded side bets, jackpots and simultaneous gameplay options.

This layout fosters a vibrant, tournament-ready atmosphere that is always a lot of fun. However, at G2E, Spintec showed that it can be upgraded even further with their latest innovation: the Spintec Tournament Experience. It comes with a visually striking LED-driven environment with real-time stats, live visuals and dynamic leaderboards that are designed to keep players immersed and energised.

At the other end of the spectrum are the circumstances where individual play is much preferred to a shared experience. In those, Charisma SVM (Stand-Alone Virtual Machine) is a perfect solution. It combines five table games into a sleek, space-efficient cabinet for individual players. It is designed for flexibility and fast play, allowing extremely smooth game transitions. It is compact yet powerful and delivers unmatched versatility for casinos of any size.

Visitors at G2E also got to experience two absolute rising stars from the Spintec portfolio. Galactic Spin, Spintec’s flagship game, is quickly becoming one of their most interesting introductions. It is a GLI-certified roulette-style innovation that amplifies excitement through free spins, multipliers and a three-level Galactic Jackpot, one of the most advanced and engaging progressive roulette systems worldwide.

The other undisputed star and a global bestseller from Spintec’s lineup is the Charisma Roulette with eight play stations. Its popularity comes from innovations such as Galactic Spin Roulette, Lucky Number Jackpot and HotSpot Roulette, which are all extremely reliable revenue drivers. The setting also offers exceptional visibility of the wheel from every seat with an elegant design enhanced by LED illumination and dual-sided animated signage.

The visitors at the G2E Las Vegas also very much enjoyed the Baccarat and Craps setups. The Charisma Baccarat with five play stations showed authentic gameplay through its market-tailored squeeze feature and a variety of side bets with payouts up to 48x, including some exclusive side bet options unique to Spintec. The other solution that also invited a lot of attention was the Charisma Craps technology. It exhibited extremely smooth gameplay with exciting dice rolls and fast, accurate number reading, maintaining the thrill of traditional craps while enhancing efficiency. A standout element is the Shooter Button, a fun and interactive feature that assigns the shooter role in accordance with authentic live game rules. Charisma Craps also incorporates a proprietary solution that guarantees clean, fair rolls by preventing dice from becoming cocked or landing on top of each other.

All of Spintec’s solutions are extremely customisable with premium finishes, and a design that fits any casino floor.
