HOW SLOTSHAWK REVIEWS AND RATES ONLINE SLOTS SITES

We are not like certain other sites which churn out reviews in less than an hour. One of our experienced in-house writers will spend several days and sometimes even over a week writing a single slot site review, placing several deposits and playing numerous slot games. Why? This is the only way in which it is possible to get a comprehensive and realistic experience of a given online slot site or casino.

Here are some of the elements our in-house team reviews for each and every slot site we list at SlotsHawk:

  • UKGC license is a must
  • Customer support options
  • Welcome bonuses
  • VIP/loyalty schemes
  • General site usability
  • Slot games available
  • Range of deposit and withdrawal options accepted
  • Deposit and withdrawal times
  • Range of markets covered
  • Ease of account registration
  • Commitment to responsible gambling
  • User experience
  • Mobile site and app usability
  • Slot game providers

Once our main writer has finished writing their review, he/she will then forward the review to all the other members of our in-house team. This gives us all the opportunity to check all details as well as for anyone to add their own. It is almost always the case that different members of our team have had their own experiences of each casino we review. Following this, other members of the team will also give the casino/slot site a rating out of five. We will then take the average score as the final one.

You will see that we have a list of more than 50 different UKGC casinos at SlotsHawk and you can be sure that the top-rated ones are top-rated for a reason – because they have come out on top after being thoroughly reviewed by SlotsHawk.

SlotsHawk also sometimes recieved emails from our users regarding bookmaker/casino disputes. If this happens to you, we can confirm that IBAS can help with disputes with online casinos. IBAS are completely independent from any casinos and are the service to go to if users do not think that their complaint has been resolved by the casino or bookmaker.

If you are from the UK, we only recommend signing up to UKGC licensed casinos so you will always have IBAS t help you resolve a dispute. IBAS cannot help you otherwise.

CONTENT IMPROVEMENT AND BI-WEEKLY UPDATES

We update our reviews every other week. We read all emails and comments by our users as these help us to understand if a casino has changed or updated. Therefore we use user feedback to update the core content at SlotsHawk.

In addition, we are in regular contact with the operating casinos themselves so that they have every opportunity to let us know if anything on their site changes. If this happens, we update the review accordingly. If any larger changed occur then this can also trigger a whole new review for the casino in question and we will completely reassess the casino.

This process is carried out across SlotsHawk with all of our reviews.

CONSTANT COMPARISONS

We have put hundreds of hours into our comprehensive comparison guides section where we compare online casinos and games in detailed guides. We do this so that we can truly take all of the casinos and put them side by side against one another. This makes it easier to discover which ones come out on top and is done to help you find the best casino sites.

THE HISTORY OF SLOTSHAWK

2020 – SlotsHawk was founded in 2020 by Iain Fenton.

Iain had been working within the online gambling sphere after graduating with a journalism degree in 2014. Before building SlotsHawk, Iain had been made redundant so had finally found time on his hands to pursue his own creation. Iain’s passion is writing and slots so blending the two together into SlotsHawk with the aim of helping other slots players navigate their way through the world of online casinos was a match made in heaven. Iain remains heavily involved in the day-to-day running of SlotsHawk today.

2021: It was in 2021 when SlotsHawk published its first review and when our first user signed up to our top recommended slot site at the time – All British Casino. That same user (Stephen Cummings) later became our slots analyst and is still working as slots analyst today. It was also in 2021 when SlotsHawk hired its current editor in chief – Jean Prince. From there, the team steadily grew as the site did. We are proud that many members of our team were users of the site before being employed by us.

If you have ever dreamed or thought of working for SlotsHawk, then do not hesitate to follow SlotsHawk on Linkedin. You can message us or simply keep your eye out for any job opportunities which may arise. We are always looking for smart and bright minded people who can take the site forward into the future.

If you would prefer to send your ideas in on what you would like to see from SlotsHawk, you can use the SlotsHawk contact form which you can find at the bottom of every page on the site. The majority of our team work from home so we do not have an official office so please use the contact form to get in touch.

2022: By 2022 our staff had grown to more than 10 and we had more than 1,000 users successfully use SlotsHawk to find their online slot sites or slot games of choice. We were also lucky enough to have some of our readers write guest guides for us. We also recruited a small but excellent news team.

2025: At this point, UK casinos began feeling the crunch of greater regulations in the UK market. Fortunately for us, we still had a loyal audience benefiting from our expertise. The growth of SlotsHawk has been a large amount of fun for everyone involved with SlotsHawk and we do not intend to stop anytime soon!
