The growth of the online bingo market has taken the UK by storm, with not only general gaming operators offering online bingo to the UK public, but just about everyone and his auntie climbing on the bingo bandwagon in order to catch their share of the phenomenal growth of the industry.
We have high street retailers, land based bingo retail outlets, and strangely enough, all the British newspapers now have their own online bingo sites, and in most instances these sites are generating really good profits.
It sort of stands to reason that a newspaper or magazine would go into the online bingo market, chiefly because they already have the infrastructure in place to market their online bingo services, products and promotions, and to date, The Sun, The Daily Star, The Mirror, Daily Record, Sunday Mail, Daily Mail, News of the World, The People, Sunday Mirror, Sunday World (Northern Ireland) and Sunday Life (Northern Ireland) are all operating online bingo sites that are successful.
The claim to fame though really going to The Sun who says their online bingo site is the biggest internet game in the world, with 3,800 players staking approximately £400,000 per week.
