Not All Casino Bonuses Are Created Equal https://windows7walls.com/not-all-casino-bonuses-are-created-equal/ Sun, 29 Apr 2018 09:10:15 +0000 https://windows7walls.com/?p=53 For those looking for ways to customize their lives, there are plenty of places to look besides the OS on their computer. Sure, your OS is your window to the world, and it’s fun to throw a little paint on the window sill from time to time, but when you need real change, start with your wallet. Finding great casino bonuses online, for example, can be a perfect place to begin. Be warned, however. Not all casino bonuses are created equally. The advertised size of the bonus is not always what it seems, and we have put together a quick guide for you to determine which bonuses are actually worth your time.

  • Things to consider when selecting casinos with the best casino bonuses
  • The first thing you have to look at are the casino’s wagering requirements. Most casinos have wagering requirements that make players use their bonus money a certain number of times before they are able to withdraw it. Finding games that help you reach that goal as quickly as possible is very important.
  • Another important thing to think about is the percentage of the match bonuses. While some casinos give 25% match bonuses, others can give up to 300%.
  • Does the casino offer any loyalty bonuses? Will they continue to reward you for reloading your account? Once you have gone through your first-deposit money and the original-bonus money, it is always very nice to get a percentage of follow-up account reloads as well.
  • It is always a good idea to see if there is a limit on the types of games you can use the bonus money on. Some casinos will only allow you to use your bonuses on one or two games, and that’s never good. The more variety you have, the more fun you will find.

In our experience, the best bonuses are the most versatile. When a casino gives you free spins, a great first-deposit bonus, good follow-up bonuses, and low wagering-requirements, that casino should be high on your list.

Three Ways to Make Money Online https://windows7walls.com/three-ways-to-make-money-online/ Sat, 24 Mar 2018 13:27:39 +0000 https://windows7walls.com/?p=38 Think you can’t make money with a website? Well, millions of people are doing it, so there’s no reason why you can’t too. Setting up a website is not so difficult these days – just find a domain name that you like and isn’t in use, purchase it and then you can create the content. One of the easiest types of websites to set up is a blog; pretty much anyone with basic computer knowledge can do it unassisted, and it’s also simple to monetise. Let’s see how.

Banner Ads

If you have a website or blog that generates a reasonable amount of traffic, then companies will be willing to pay you for a banner ad at the top or side of the page. This is one of the most honest ways of creating revenue, as the visitor has the information they need and can decide whether they want to click the ad or not.

Affiliate Marketing

This can be an excellent way to generate some revenue, and one example is casino affiliate programs. Creating a website or blog that reviews games in the casino genre can create an opportunity to link through to specific casino sites. If you join an affiliate program for a particular casino, then you can receive revenue from the casino in a number of ways, depending on what you decide. In general, the more traffic your site drives to the casino, the more you will receive.

Sponsored Posts

No matter what your blog is about, chances are there are products and services out there that you would like to recommend to your readers. If you’re going to do this anyway, it’s worth seeing if the brand will sponsor a post including the recommendation for their product. In order to stay ethical, don’t promote anything that you don’t like – that’s a guaranteed way to lose followers – and make sure you state that the post is sponsored.

Mobile Phone Games: Play Smart https://windows7walls.com/mobile-phone-games-play-smart/ Tue, 13 Mar 2018 13:33:48 +0000 https://windows7walls.com/?p=48 From the very start, mobile phone users have been fascinated by playing phone games. Even in the earliest days, the primitive in-phone games had the ability to command our attention and also ignite our competitive spirit. Fast-forward to today, and smartphones with internet connectivity have put a whole world of games at our fingertips.

One great feature of the new breed of online phone games is the ability to compete with both friends and strangers in real time. The old favourite board game, Scrabble, has reinvented itself for the virtual world, with competitive versions such as Words with Friends creating possibilities for fun, healthy and brain-stimulating games. Score the highest points and tease your friends about it. Another popular game is chess, which could have been made for the digital platform.

For those of us who like to try our luck and play for stakes a little higher than just beating our friends, there are plenty of mobile-compatible online poker games available on the market. Playing casino games like poker on mobile can be even better than on a PC. For one, you can do it from anywhere, but there is also the added advantage of the touch-screen, which makes playing so much more instinctive. Mobile players will also receive notifications, so there’s no reason to miss out on any special offers.

For those of us who didn’t grow up with smartphones, all these new games can seem like they aren’t for us. Aside from casino games, which are simply online versions of games that have been around for aeons, there are also plenty of versions of our old classic arcade games in mobile phone versions. Get nostalgic with Tetris, enjoy the retro graphics of Minecraft, and go right back to your childhood with Sonic the Hedgehog.

Know Your Opponent: Poker Labels https://windows7walls.com/know-your-opponent-poker-labels/ Fri, 02 Mar 2018 13:30:58 +0000 https://windows7walls.com/?p=43 If you’ve moved on from casual online poker games, or nights with your friend round the baize, it’s probably time to start learning how to appraise your fellow players. Being aware of styles of play and personalities can help you to decide how to respond. A smart player knows that it’s not just the cards that will help you win, but a canny judgment of who you’re playing against.

Amateur vs Professional

One of the basic assessments of your colleagues at the poker table is just how professional they are. This is not simply a matter of how experienced a player is, but of their behaviour during a game. A player with less experience can still act in a more responsible and mature fashion than someone who has many more years of practice under their belt.

Loose vs Tight

Players tend to either play a range of hands, in which case they can be labelled as loose-style contestants. Conversely, a tight player will stick to a narrow range and only play what they consider to be a strong hand. It is, therefore, less predictable to play a loose player. If you are sure that an opponent is a tight player, pay attention when they are confident, as it may well be backed up with some good cards.

Aggressive vs Passive

The general difference between these two styles can be compared to a football team. An aggressive player will be on the attack, taking risks and raising often. A passive player is like a defensive team, protecting what they have and calling or check more often. Putting it all together, a player can be a combination of these three factors. A professional, loose-passive player, for example, will keep their cool at all times and play a lot of hands, but will not bet or raise so much. Being aware of the style will help you to understand what they are thinking, and what kind of hand they may have.

How to know if an Online Casino is Safe https://windows7walls.com/how-to-know-if-an-online-casino-is-safe/ Thu, 09 Nov 2017 09:27:13 +0000 https://windows7walls.com/?p=23 With so many online casinos, the choice can be overwhelming. This can be a good thing, but it is also bad as it can be hard for newcomers to know which sites can be trusted and which cannot. As with all things, there are unscrupulous sites out there just waiting to take the money of the unsuspecting player. Below are just a few of the things to look for when checking out a new casino.

Are They Licensed?

This is the first thing that should always be checked. Licenses come from the governing authorities where the casino is registered. To get a license, casinos must undergo rigorous checks and then adhere to strict rules and regulations. These regulations help to protect players in the event of missing money and other potential money loss scams. These licenses should be prominently displayed on the casino website and be able to be checked by the player to ensure authenticity.

The Games

In addition to the licenses, it is important to check that the casino follows the rules of gaming fairness. Having a license usually ensures this, but a number of casinos will go above and beyond to prove that this is the case. Many sites will display audits done by third party companies that show the gaming software is unbiased in any way. It is also worth noting that the software providers used by a casino will also indicate security. Companies such as NetEnt are known for their gaming fairness, and as they produce a lot of games such as slots, blackjack, roulette and live games, it can be worth finding a casino that uses their work.

Payment Providers

Other areas to look at are the monetary providers. Again, if the casino is using companies such as PayPal, known for their safe and secure transactions, it can go a long way to ensuring peace of mind in the player.

Tools to Keep You Safe Online https://windows7walls.com/tools-to-keep-you-safe-online/ Wed, 30 Aug 2017 13:44:00 +0000 https://windows7walls.com/?p=12 One of the most important things that you can do if you are trying to maintain a healthy computer and online presence is to have a good suite of security software installed on your machine that you run at frequent intervals. There are all kinds of dangerous viruses that can be in a system without the owner ever knowing that they exist, and when left unchecked they can either break a system down to an unusable state or provide the writers of the viruses with a constant stream of your personal data and private information. Luckily, there is a war being waged against viruses and other malicious programs, and the tools used by the makers of today’s virus-fighting programs are very powerful. But it is your responsibility to acquire and utilize these programs, so here is a short list to get you started.

McAfee

McAfee has long been at the top of the ranking where IT security is concerned. The company runs well on pretty much every machine type, and the list of things that it is capable of finding and repairing is really quite impressive. McAfee protects users against Malware, malicious websites which are known for phishing and using false certificates, provides virus scans on demand and vulnerability testing to ensure that there are no hackers on the system, and the program does it all for about 20 US Dollars per year. There is also a free version that is pretty good but does not come with quite as many features.

Bitdefender

Bitdefender is another impressive piece of software that can save your machine from a long list of threat types. Bitdefender acts as an anti-malware, anti-virus, anti-phishing, anti-adware, and a lot more. It even monitors all of your online traffic and actively scans the sites that you visit for security-related threats.There are many other great options available that come in both free and premium versions, but selecting either of the ones mentioned above will definitely serve you well.

Knowledge is Safety https://windows7walls.com/knowledge-is-safety/ Wed, 23 Aug 2017 13:43:19 +0000 https://windows7walls.com/?p=11 There aren’t too many people who would disagree with the classic statement that knowledge is power, but when it comes to the world of IT security, knowledge is much more than just something that allows you to do things that others can’t. When it comes to computing, whether it be for personal or commercial use, knowledge is security. Without knowing what risks you face there is nothing that you can do to put the necessary safeguards in place that would keep you safe, and that is exactly what we would like to help you with.You have probably heard of viruses, just as everyone has, but what are they exactly? Viruses are small pieces of software that are written by people with the intention of either doing harm to another person’s computer, exposing some kind of data for the purposes of theft or targeted advertisement, or to take control of a computer system from a remote location. Each of these comes with its own specifications and each are dealt with in different ways, which is why there are so many different security programs that have been developed to deal with one or more of these types of threats.

Ransomware

Ransomware is one of the most dangerous of the lot, as programs of this type operate specifically to cripple systems. There are many reasons why someone might want to bring your computer to its knees, but one of the main reasons is that when you lose control of your machine, the person behind the ransomware can do anything that they want to it with little or no knowledge on your part that there is someone stealing all of your personal information.

Malware and Adware

Along with Adware, Malware is one of the most common types of viruses in today’s online world. The purpose of Malware is mainly to cause difficulty to users, and it often is a ‘fire and forget’ method of creating chaos that can break certain areas of an operating system, rendering computers unusable. Once this type of virus has spread throughout a system it is very difficult to remove it and a system restore is often required. Adware is similar, but instead of breaking things it leaves traces on the infected system that lets advertisers in. Neither of these is good news for the efficiency and health of the system.
