Blog FAQs

Quick answers about the Betloy Blog.

How often do you post new articles?
Roughly weekly. Bigger investigative pieces (like our quarterly bookmaker market-depth audits) take longer; quick reads on conversion mechanics or new bookmaker launches go up faster.
Who writes the Betloy blog?
Internal Betloy staff in Nigeria — engineers from the conversion team and our editorial writers. We don't outsource our editorial.
Are the bookmaker reviews paid for?
No. Where we have an affiliate relationship with an operator, outbound links carry rel="sponsored" per Google's guidelines.
