Online Bingo is not really all that new, although many people seem to believe that this is a new innovation, the first game of online bingo actually appeared in the United States in 1995 that is all of twelve years ago. However its expansion and popularity has been spread because of the readily available appearance of broadband internet access.
Results from surveys have shown that online bingo players do tend to be females aged between twenty five and fifty and have at least a high school education, this information is according to data collected by Cashcade, the owners and operators of Think Bingo and Foxy Bingo, both online bingo operators in their own rights and certainly some of the more popular UK online bingo sites.
Although it is believed that this is the online bingo demographic to target, when it comes to online bingo, there are many surprises and I have heard of grandmothers introducing their granddaughters to the game of online bingo, although this is probably the exception rather than the rule. Online bingo is going to be growing in leaps and bounds into the future and we can only assume that demographics will change and we shall see more of the older age group joining the youngsters in games of online bingo. By the way, we also heard that many men who play online bingo use a female name, so they won’t be caught in the act!
