Kim Lindsjö appointed Videoslots Head of Affiliates
Leading operator internally promotes Lindsjö to executive position
Leading casino operator Videoslots.com has promoted Kim Lindsjö to the role of Head of Affiliates.
Lindsjö, who celebrated his eighth anniversary at Videoslots on June 2nd, started as a Junior Affiliate Manager before adopting a senior role within that department. He was then elevated to Head of Affiliates earlier this year.
Since his appointment, Lindsjö has already bolstered his team, recruiting three new affiliate managers within weeks, setting up new processes and shifting focus and priorities so the affiliate side of the business can evolve.
One of the most important remits that Lindsjö is taking care of in the foreseeable future is the migration to a new affiliate platform from the affiliates side, with the tool helping in cleaning up Videoslots’ affiliate list and achieve growth, obtaining even better results.
Prior to joining Videoslots in 2015, Lindsjö developed a career within sales before moving over to the affiliate sector.
Ulle Skottling, Deputy CEO at Videoslots, said: “Kim has been a vital part of Videoslots’ work within the affiliates side of the business over the past eight years and his latest promotion is testament to his hard work and achievements since he started in 2015.
“With Kim at the helm, the affiliate team is in good hands and he has some fantastic plans moving forward that will strengthen our reputation.”
Kim Lindsjö, Head of Affiliates at Videoslots, said: “Celebrating my eight-year anniversary as Videoslots’ Head of Affiliates is a fantastic way to look back on my time here with fond memories.
“The affiliate side of the business is playing a key role and the majority of the revenue is obtained via affiliates meaning this is extremely important for the growth and success of the company.
“There is plenty to look forward over the next 12 months. We are entering new markets, meaning we need to find quality affiliates within these regions. This involves traveling, attending conferences and a lot of negotiations and testing, which I am really looking forward to.”

Amidst the whirlwind of Google’s relentless updates and the intricate web of affiliate marketing, the upcoming CasinoBeats Summit, with a laser focus on SEO, AI content, and innovative traffic monetisation strategies, will offer marketers and affiliates a platform to tackle pressing inquiries head-on.
The ‘Marketing & Affiliation’ track will occur across both core days of the CasinoBeats Summit, 22nd – 23rd May, at the InterContinental Malta. The track will provide 4500 attendees with an in-depth exploration of key talking points shaping the worlds of marketing and affiliation.
Discussions will encompass leveraging innovative technology such as artificial intelligence (AI) and immersive video content to engage new audiences, the power of alternative marketing channels, and gaining a competitive edge through SEO strategies.
The panel titled ‘Finding CRM harmony: Automation vs Experience’ will delve into the growing influence of customer relationship management (CRM) and the most effective strategies for its utilisation. Industry experts Matthias S. Kaiser (Head of CRM at Tipico), Alexandru Ababei (CRM Global Promotions Manager, Betsson) and Zurab Magalashvili (CMO, Adjarabet), will explore how CRM implementation can align with existing processes for player experiences and how CRM data can aid in proactive responsible gambling initiatives.
The conference session ‘Future-Proofing Marketing: Unveiling Trends Beyond the Hype’ will discuss the latest marketing trends and assess their long-term potential. Marketing experts Calvin Samut (Head of Brand, Socios), Cecilia López Boronat (Marketing Content Manager, Clobet Limited) and panel moderator Dennis Algreen (Marketing Director, SBC Events), will explore the longevity of these emerging trends, the danger of chasing trends and whether businesses should prioritise long-term brand stability over fleeting marketing fads.

Experts Silvia Almeida (Chief Media Officer, Clever Advertising), Leanne Muleba (Chief Operations Officer, Matching Visions), Eleonora Norbiato (Head of Acquisition, SKS365) and panel moderator Maria Tsnompilantze (Content Marketing Manager, SBC), will deliberate over how useful these alternative channels are, what metrics are particularly relevant for monetization purposes and whether the quality or quantity debate is over in the age of SEO.
The panel titled ‘The Uncharted Territory of Grey Hat SEO – Traffic, Cloaking, PBNs, Parasite SEO and More’ will delve into the nuances of SEO and PPC tactics, exploring the benefits of both Google-approved and grey hat strategies. Led by experts Vadim Aidlin (Chief Executive Officer, PushnotiAds) and Julia Logan (CEO & Founder, Zangoose Digital), discussions will encompass the use of PBNs, the impact of bot traffic, successful partnership SEO strategies and best practices regarding cloaking.
The first core day of the event will also feature a dedicated ‘SEO Trilogy’, hosted by Ivana Flynn alongside a host of industry experts as they tackle the continuously evolving SEO landscape.
