Online Bingo Industry on the Boom
A recently released report from one of the leading portal www.bingport.co.uk has revealed that during the past 6 months, the number of internet bingo players in the online UK bingo industry has increased by 80%. These figures are provided for the six months period 01 May 2008 to 31 October 2008. BingoPort.co.uk is the only site in UK that ranks and monitor online UK bingo sites and also provide a unique overview that how many bingo players are playing at bingo sites and rooms.
Binport.co.uk also stated that the increase relates to the average of active bingo players during the six months duration and it is in line with our predictions. These figures has come at a time when the UK Online Bingo Industry is getting ready to celebrate the industry best with BingoPort.co.uk Players Choice Awards, that is going to be held in London during January. Some of the key factors for this phenomenal growth are the extensive media coverage to the online bingo industry, the introduction of online gaming laws in UK and most importantly the smoking ban which resulted in driving bingo players out of the halls and onto their computers into numbers that were never seen before.
In order to get an accurate estimate, www.bingport.co.uk analysts adopted a number of methodologies. During the process they acquired substantial amount of operational data from various bingo sites, also they tracked the number of online players actively participating in bingo rooms at each time.
This dramatic increase in the number of players will surprise many in the industry, considering the current economic meltdown. Director for BingoPort.co.uk stated that “We are, of course, watching the UK and global financial crisis closely but our data suggests active online bingo player numbers should continue to rise in the foreseeable future “.
The influx of players to the bingo sites have been seen as a positive step for the overall health of the online UK bingo industry, but many experts are still worried about the player’s satisfaction. Most of the operators do not seem to be keeping up with player’s demands as it is often a case that hundreds of internet bingo players are crammed into a single room leading to dissatisfaction amongst the bingos faithful.
