Yes – the above statement is not a hype but a complete truth and considered opinion of experts in the field. To arrive at a decision of growth or not in a particular sector, it needs in-depth research by experts in the field, to consider and compare many factors.  That’s what has been done by an eminent personality in the Bingo gaming industry in relation to the points in support of this decision.

Joe Saussure Smith, who has over a decade’s work experience in online Bingo games Industry, has done the research on various online Bingo sites floating on the net.  Bingo games are being played in many European countries such as Austria; Belgium; Bulgaria; Cyprus; France; Germany; Greece; Hungary;  Italy; Malta; Netherlands; Portugal and Spain; Scandinavian countries like  Sweden, Denmark,  Norway, Finland and Iceland.

Emerging as a Lottery game in Italy, “Beano” games of calling numbers and striking them off in the printed tickets on a row have spread to various countries since the 30s. Enroute in U.S.A. they got the new name of “Bingo” and are being played in exclusive Bingo Clubs and Bingo halls in these countries.  After their success in U.S.A. they crossed the Atlantic to reach the United Kingdom in the 60s and are popular even today in the land Bingo Clubs of U.K.

The same promoters of land Bingo games ventured into bringing Bingo games to the Internet world and have succeeded to a large extent.  The growth of Bingo games is spectacular in the British soil over the 4 decades in land based Bingo games and within a span of 5 to 6 years on the Internet.

This is what Joe Saussure Smith has revealed in his study.  He is asserting that online Bingo games playing sites in the United Kingdom, which were only 17 in 2004 have grown manifold in numbers to 243 now in 2008.  In comparison, such a tremendous growth is not found in any of the other countries’ online Bingo sites, according to him.  The next country coming close to U.K. is Spain, where as of now there are 40 Bingo online sites operating there in Spanish language, a growth from just 6 online sites at the beginning of this year.

The study by Joe Saussure Smith shows the frenzy of Bingo Games playing online is spreading fast in the United Kingdom and therefore it is projected that at this rate, U.K. Bingo online will touch new heights sooner than later.
