Dr. Spiele (drspiele.de) is an independent German-language affiliate platform focused on online casino reviews and gambling education for the DACH market (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). The site is built around Dr. Markus Spiele, an industry expert with 12+ years of experience in gambling analysis, licensing and player protection, who personally tests every featured operator with real money before publishing a review.

Our editorial methodology is structured around seven evaluation criteria: licensing and security (GGL, MGA, Curaçao, Anjouan), bonus terms and wagering analysis, game library breadth and provider quality, payment methods (with dedicated speed and fee testing), mobile experience, customer support responsiveness, and player protection tools (OASIS integration, deposit limits, self-exclusion options). Each casino review is published with full Schema.org markup, author attribution, transparent affiliate disclosure and date-stamped updates.

Beyond standalone reviews, we operate topical pillar pages including "Casino Vergleich 2026" (top operators ranked for DACH), "Casino mit schneller Auszahlung", "Krypto Casino", and "Casino ohne deutsche Lizenz" – each surrounded by 5-10 supporting cluster articles that capture intent-driven non-brand search traffic. Educational content covers GlüStV regulation, RTP fundamentals, KYC processes, and responsible gambling resources (BZgA, check-dein-spiel.de, OASIS) – building topical authority that German-language gamblers and Google's E-E-A-T signals both reward.

Traffic acquisition is built primarily on long-tail SEO in German, supported by an opt-in newsletter list with welcome and retention sequences. We do not use incentivized traffic, popunder or redirect sources, brand bidding on operator terms, or paid social advertising on Meta platforms. All traffic is consented, content-driven, and 18+ verified.

For affiliate managers: we work on CPA, Revenue Share and Hybrid deal structures, and are open to custom landing pages, exclusive bonus codes for our user base, dedicated welcome packages, and direct postback API integrations. Reporting transparency is standard – we share traffic source breakdowns, top-converting pages and funnel data on request. Response time under 24 hours for all partnership inquiries.
