Party/Empire question

[ElSapo]

Why does Party and Empire have two sites, instead of just one? Seems like a waste of money for them, but I'm sure it is madly profitable and I'm just missing something...

They get many more customers this way.

I haven't investigatied this thoroughly but-- I suspect this is a pooling of interests. They are owned by two different entities. They joined together some time ago when both were much smaller to have a larger site and thus be able to attract more players. How many times do we avoid a site because of their lack of game choices or too few players? Or look at EBAY. Because of their size people go to them first for on-line auctions. Again I haven't check this theory out, just a thought.

The also have multiple domain names like a few other OCR's, this of course is to increase thier search engine rankings with diffrent keywords and phrases.
