A 'new betting site' is a lesser-known bookmaker which may operate on a smaller scale to the giants of the betting world, such as bet365, Betfair and Paddy Power.
These new betting sites often present stronger or more unique new customer offers and existing customer offers to compete in a crowded market and some place a huge focus on horse racing, for example Fitzdares.
The smaller operators may offer a more personal, niche service and are well worth signing up for if you are a keen bettor.
We have a whole host of new betting sites to choose from and each operator offers something different. Our favourite sites are listed below, along with their pros and cons.
LiveScore Bet has proven to be a huge hit with our audience. The relatively new betting site places a huge emphasis on sport and its welcome offer represents excellent value. You get £20 in free bets when you place your first bet of £10 - rivalling the big players in the market.
LiveScore Bet customers benefit from a host of existing customer offers and daily specials are offered in abundance. For example, bet on a jockey to have a certain number of winners at a meeting today and bet on a host of markets for the Cheltenham Festival, including the ‘number of British-trained winners’.

Ayr 2.50 Outlaw Peter Outlaw Peter has adapted well to chasing and, with last month's Kempton success looking particularly solid, the Paul Nicholls-trained gelding is difficult to get away from with a 5lb higher rating looking a fair assessment. Any further rain won't hinder the selection's chances and, with his usual partner Harry Cobden doing the steering, everything is in place for a big run. The hat-trick seeking Prairie Wolf and Heltenham complete the shortlist.
