With hundreds of different betting sites, finding the best can be confusing. I'll guide you through and find the most suitable bookie for you.
This week there has been a heavy Cheltenham focus, as expected. The offers from UK betting sites have been flying in all week, and there's still the odd one that you can take advantage of, despite it being the Friday of the Festival.

Content Updates
We've been going through and updating our data, making sure it's as up-to-date as possible, paying attention to golf, tennis and cricket this week. There's nothing significant that has had a big swing, with bookies scores changing only slightly based on recent product changes and seasonal promotions.
Our news series continues, examining trends in the UK sports betting industry. This week two pieces have gone live:
Are Bet & Get Offers Replacing Matched Free Bets?
Acca Insurance: Marketing Tool or Retention Strategy?
What's Happening Next Week
After the comedown from Cheltenham it'll be more like business as usual. We will assess, and look at the effect big sporting events, and Cheltenham is the biggest, have on betting trends (not just people betting more, but more patterns of behaviour and how bookies' strategies reflect that).
It's also March Madness, and we'll be looking at that in our weekly newsletter.
