BestBettingMichigan.com is owned and operated by Best Betting Media Ltd, a UK incorporated company, with its headquarters residing in Bristol.
So what is a UK company doing, running a site focused on the betting and casino industry in Michigan?
Well, Best Betting Media Ltd is founded by 3 veterans of the iGaming industry, boasting a combined 40 years of experience, expertise, authority, and trust.
We have a vision to make betting and gaming customers more informed in their choices on a global scale, but we believe in a hyper-local, state and country specific approach to educating bettors and gamblers, regardless of where they may be based.
Hence, we are developing a full portfolio for key states and countries around the world with our ‘Best Betting’ brand. Such as our sister sites Best Betting New Jersey, Mejores Apuestas for Mexican players, and Best Betting India.
Trusting Us
It’s important to us that our users trust us and believe we are offering the best service possible. So let’s dig in a bit to our background.
The three founders, Simon Pilkington, Andy Scott and Adam Pilkington have spent the majority of their careers in this industry and have all the bases covered to provide great informational sites to our users.
Whilst all three are based in Europe, they all boast hands-on experience within the US market, across the Sports Betting, Online Casino, Poker and Bingo verticals, and each bring a skillset that between them covers editorial content, commercial, product, marketing, SEO, technology and leadership.
Most importantly they’ve spent these years building an understanding of what makes the perfect sportsbook and casino operator and are uniquely positioned as bettors themselves to be able to guide you through your options and allow you to make more informed decisions.
With our belief in focusing on being hyper-local, we try to work extremely closely with experts in Michigan, to ensure that content and marketing is of the highest quality possible and meets our users needs and intents.
Our Commercial Model
In order to provide strong content and keep BestBettingMichigan.com in the best possible position, we run this website as a commercial entity and we largely follow an affiliate commercial framework, which sees us receive a small fee for each user that joins a betting or casino operator off the back of our reviews.
We’re totally open and transparent about this as it allows us to help more users globally to get the best information and keep players from joining rogue operators which we would never work with. We look to foster strong relationships with our partners, that also allows us to present bespoke bonuses and offers to you, the user, whilst giving us a deeper insight into the operational side of operators.
Integrity vs Commercials
The obvious question we like to answer is how we manage to stay objective during our review process when working with these operators on a commercial basis. Well, we like to frame this the other way around and say we look to push commercial agreements once we’re happy that we’re recommending a great brand and a great sportsbook or casino. If they don’t cut it, we don’t cut a deal, it’s that simple.
A key part of the integrity is that the fees paid to us by the operators are in no way passed on to you - it costs nothing to use our sites and take in our information, and it never will.
