This is a fantastic opportunity for us to offer our customers the very best in up to the minute and independent sportsbetting information.'
Matteo Berlucci, CEO, Skinkers, said "This is a really exciting new contract for Skinkers and great for bookiealerts.com to have this technological advantage in a highly competitive market."
The software has been provided by Skinkers a London based technology company is compatible with all Windows PCs and Macs on the market, and uses the same technology as Skynews.com and BBCNews.com. The number of web sessions generated by a user of desktop alerts is on average 3 to 5 times higher than on sites without such technology as part of a, permission based, customised alert on the user's computer.
The latest odds are guaranteed to be seen, as the alerts appear in front of any other application being used on the user's computer at that time with a 'keep quiet' facility so not to alert the boss or disturb you at work.
