The latest reports state that there are now over 1800 online casinos on the internet. Online Sportsbook proliferate and there seems to be a new online Poker site launching every day. One aspect of online gambling that doesn’t grab the headlines, but is becoming a vibrant, growing and commercially important market is ONLINE JACKPOT bingo .

ONLINE JACKPOT bingo? But the little old ladies who play ONLINE JACKPOT bingo don't have internet access, I hear you say. That may, or may not be the case, but land-based ONLINE JACKPOT bingo is huge, and its not only played by little old ladies. In fact, there are more visits to ONLINE JACKPOT bingo halls in USA than there are visits to the cinema. In 1999, the US ONLINE JACKPOT bingo industry alone had a turnover of $5.1b. Add to that the fact that the rules are simple (everyone knows how to play ONLINE JACKPOT bingo) and that most people don’t even perceive it as gambling and you can see its potential. Little wonder that ONLINE JACKPOT bingo is growing and set to become big business.

Multi-player ONLINE JACKPOT bingo on the internet (as opposed to single player, Keno-ONLINE JACKPOT bingo) falls into three basic groups; Free ONLINE JACKPOT bingo, Game Sites with ONLINE JACKPOT bingo and Pay to Play ONLINE JACKPOT bingo. Free ONLINE JACKPOT bingo is offered by a small number of specialist sites. Game play is free and prizes are usually points or small denomination cash prizes. The operators business model is built on banner advertising sales and/or data mining. This is the same model as operated by those sites offering a range of games, one of which happens to be ONLINE JACKPOT bingo. These sites include places like Pogo, Gamesville and the Flipside Network. The core of the industry, however, is the Pay-to-Play ONLINE JACKPOT bingo sites.

Compared to the 1800 online casinos, the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo market is small, but its growing quickly. There were only ten credible pay-to-play ONLINE JACKPOT bingo offerings in April 2000. A year later this had increased by 50%. One year later, by February 2002, this had double to 30 sites. As I write (December 2002) this figure has risen by more than 60% in less than year and the current count is at 52 sites. (All these numbers exclude white label sites and affiliates etc.).

The structure of the industry is similar to the online casino industry. Software is licensed to operators and costs are usually based on an upfront fee plus and on-going, turnover-based royalty. Up to recently the software was supplied by ONLINE JACKPOT bingo specialists only. However, recently two of the online casino worlds big boys have entered the market. Both Boss Media and Cryptologic have commenced supplying ONLINE JACKPOT bingo software. Again, as with the online casino market, the games come in download, Flash and Java versions, with the download option seemingly returning to favour after an up-turn in Java and Flash in the last year. All pay-to-play ONLINE JACKPOT bingo sites offer slots games (as per their land-based cousins) but recently there has been a surge of new additional games on offer including Video Poker, Keno and other card based games.

So, whos playing these games? Weve already established that its not the little old ladies who play land-based ONLINE JACKPOT bingo. From original research carried out at Which ONLINE JACKPOT bingo.com (http://www.whichONLINE JACKPOT bingo.com) it can be seen that the audience is predominantly female (85%), two thirds of them are aged 35 - 54, almost all of them are based in North America and over 80% of them also play land-based ONLINE JACKPOT bingo. Interestingly 40% of ONLINE JACKPOT bingo players do not take part in any other type of online gambling. For those operators in the online casino market this is great news entering the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo arena will open up new audience streams for them rather than cannibalising their existing player base. However if you really want to see what this audience looks like, pop into any ONLINE JACKPOT bingo site. Most of them have players galleries so you can indeed see what the audience looks like.

Players galleries may be a strange concept to those used to promoting the benefits of the anonymity of online gaming. ONLINE JACKPOT bingo is different. One of the main reasons a player will play at one site rather than another is because their friends play there. Thats not friends from the local neighbourhood, but friends across the whole internet. The basis of this community spirit within the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo games is the chat window. The chat window is open during the game and players interact throughout the game, creating the community atmosphere. This then brings an additional marketing tool into play; the Chat Host. Simply the Chat Host is there, in the chat room, to develop a community atmosphere and offer immediate customer support. A good Chat Host (or CM as they are known) can be the difference between an OK site and a great site. Importantly, they can also be an influencer as to whether a player returns or not.

Finally, with the cost of both recruitment and retention within the gaming market remaining competitively high, its worth looking at ONLINE JACKPOT bingo in comparison. Taking an arbitrary day, the cost to appear in first position on Overture for the word casino is more than three times more expensive than appearing in first position for ONLINE JACKPOT bingo. Similarly, top position for online casino is more than five times more expensive than ONLINE JACKPOT bingo. Added to which retention levels are much, much higher in ONLINE JACKPOT bingo.

Although only a brief overview of the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo market, suffice to say that it is a vibrant, fast-growing niche within the online gaming market and one that deserves to be looked at in more depth by anyone looking for an opportunity in online gaming.

Origins of ONLINE JACKPOT bingo

The Early Roots

ONLINE JACKPOT bingo as we know it today is a form of lottery and is a direct descendant of Lo Giuoco del Lotto d'Italia.When Italy was united in 1530, the Italian National Lottery Lo Giuoco del Lotto d'Italia was organized, and has been held, almost without pause, at weekly intervals to this date. Today the Italian State lottery is indispensable to the government's budget, with a yearly contribution in excess of 75 million dollars.

In 1778 it was reported in the French press that Le Lotto had captured the fancy of the intelligentsia. In the classic version of Lotto, which developed during this period, the playing card used in the game was divided into three horizontal and nine vertical rows. Each horizontal row had five numbered and four blank squares in a random arrangement. The vertical rows contained numbers from 1 to 10 in the first row, 11 to 20 in the second row, et cetera, up to 90. No two Lotto cards were alike. Chips numbered from 1 to 90 completed the playing equipment. Players were dealt a single Lotto card, then the caller would draw a small wooden, numbered token from a cloth boag and read the number aloud. The players would cover the number if it appeared on their card. The first player to cover a horizontal row was the winner.

In the 1800's educational Lotto games became popular. A German Lotto game of the 1850s was designed to teach children their multiplication tables. There were other educational Lotto games such as 'Spelling Lotto,' 'Animal Lotto,' and 'Historical Lotto." Even in today's highly competitive toy and game market, Lotto is holding its own; Milton Bradley sells a Lotto game featuring the Sesame Street Muppets. The game is designed to provide children in the 3 to 6 year age range with a splash of fun while, at the same time, teaching them to count and recognize numbers.

Beano

It was an evening in December of 1929 when a very tired New York toy salesman, Edwin S. Lowe, decided to drive on to Jacksonville, Georgia so that he might have an early start for his next day's appointments. The year before, with two employees and $1,000 capital, Lowe had set up his own toy company. Soon after, the market crashed and the outlook for his budding firm looked bleak indeed.

A few miles from Jacksonville, Lowe came around a bend in the road and was greeted by the bright lights of a country carnival. he was ahead of schedule, so he parked his car and got out. All of the carnival booths were closed except one, which was packed with people. Lowe stood on tiptoes and peered over the shoulders of the participants. The action centered on a horseshoe shaped table covered with numbered cards and beans. The game being played was a variation of Lotto called Beano. The pitchman, or caller, pulled small numbered wooden disks from an old cigar box and, at the same time, called the number aloud. The players responded by eagerly checking their card to see if they had the number called; if so, they would place a bean on the number. This sequence continued until some someone filled a line of numbers on their card - either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. This feat was marked by the shout of "Beano!" The winner received a small Kewpie doll.

Ed Lowe tried to play Beano that night, but, he recalls, "I couldn't get a seat. But while I was waiting around, I noticed that the players were practically addicted to the game. The picthman wanted to close up, but every time he said, "This is the last game', nobody moved. When he finally closed at 3:00 a.m. he had to chase them out."

After locking up, the pitchman told Lowe that he had run across a game called Lotto while traveling with a carnival in Germany the previous year. His immediate thought was that it would make a good tent or carnival game. He made a few changes in its play, and a change of the name to Beano. The game proved to be such a surefire crowd pleaser and money maker that on his return to the United States, he continued to work the game on the Carnival circuit.

ONLINE JACKPOT bingo

Returning to his home in New York, Lowe bought some dried beans, a rubber numbering stamp and some cardboard. Friends were invited to his apartment and Ed Lowe assumed the pitchman's duties. Soon his friends were playing Beano with the same tension and excitement as he had seen at the carnival. During one session Lowe noticed that one of his players was close to winning. She got more excited as each bean was added to her card. Finally there was one number left - and it was called! The woman jumped up, became tongue tied, and instead of shouting "Beano," stuttered "B-B-B-ONLINE JACKPOT BINGO!"

"I cannot describe the strange sense of elation which that girl's cry brought to me," Lowe said. "All I could think of was that I was going to come out with this game, and it was going to be called ONLINE JACKPOT bingo!"

The earliest Lowe ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game in two variations - a twelve card sert for one dollar and a two dollar set with twenty-four cards. The game was an immediate success and put Lowe's company squarely on its feet.

Although the name ONLINE JACKPOT bingo could very well have been trademarked, the game itself, having come out of the public domain, had little chance of being protected. Imitators came out of the woodwork once the success of Lowe's game was evident. Lowe was very gracious about the whole affair. He asked his competitors to pay him a dollar a year, and to call their games ONLINE JACKPOT bingo, too. A small price to pay to avoid litigation - and this the name became generic.

ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Cards and Insane Mathamaticians

Several months after ONLINE JACKPOT bingo hit the market, Lowe was approached by a priest from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. The Father had a problem in his parish. A fast thinking parishoner had come up with the idea of using ONLINE JACKPOT bingo as a way to get the church out of its financial troubles. The priest had put the scheme into operation after having bought several sets of Lowe's $2.00 ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game. However, problems developed immediately when it was found that each game produced half a dozen or more winners. Lowe could immediately see the tremendous fund raising possibilities of ONLINE JACKPOT bingo, but at the same time, he realized that to make the game workable on this large of a scale, a great many more combinations of numbers would have to be developed for the cards. To accomplish this, Lowe sought the services of an elderly professor of mathematics at Columbia University, one Carl Leffler. Lowe's request was the the professor devise 6,000 new ONLINE JACKPOT bingo cards with non repeating number groups. The professor agreed to a fee that remunerated him on a per card basis. As the professor worked on, each card became increasingly difficult. Lowe was impatient, and toward the end the price per card had risen to $100. Eventually, the task was completed. The E.S. Lowe Company had its 6,000 cards - at the expense of the professor's sanity!

The church of Wilkes-Barre was saved and after it, a Knights of Columbus Hall in Utica, New York. Word spread fast - "I used to get thousands of letters asking for help on setting up ONLINE JACKPOT bingo games, "said Lowe - so many that he published ONLINE JACKPOT bingo's first Instructional Manual. This effort was followed by a monthly news letter called The Blotter (absorbs all ONLINE JACKPOT bingo news) which was distributed to 37,000 subscribers. By 1934 there were an estimated 10,000 ONLINE JACKPOT bingo games a week, and Ed Lowe's firm had a thousand employees frantically trying to keep up with demand - nune entire floors of the New York office space, and 64 presses printing 24 hours a day - "... we used more newsprint than the New York Times!" According to Lowe, the largest ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game in history was played in New York's Teaneck Armory - 60,000 players, with another 10,000 being turned away at the door. Ten automobiles were given away. ONLINE JACKPOT bingo was off to a fast start, and at the same time, had reserved itself next to baseball and apple pie - thanks to Ed Lowe and the loss of Professor Leffler's sanity.

How ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Was Born

Most ONLINE JACKPOT bingo players don't realize that the first ONLINE JACKPOT bingo games can be traced back to 1530 in Italy. It originated as a "lottery" game called, "Lo Giuco de Lotto". Interesting, huh?

He hired a Columbia University math professor, Carl Leffler, to help him increase the number of combinations in ONLINE JACKPOT bingo cards. By 1930, Leffler had invented 6,000 different ONLINE JACKPOT bingo cards. [It is said that Leffler then went insane.

A Catholic priest from Pennsylvania approached Lowe about using ONLINE JACKPOT bingo as a means of raising church funds. When ONLINE JACKPOT bingo started being played in churches it became increasingly popular.

Winning at ONLINE JACKPOT bingo is not all luck, contrary to popular belief. There are ways to bend the odds in your favor and become a more consistent winner, if you know how!

Now noted mathematical analyst Joseph E. Granville, creator of successful stock market strategies used by thousands, has directed the enormous power of his analytical mind to the game of ONLINE JACKPOT bingo. After years of painstaking research, he has developed proven strategies that give you a clear competitive edge so that you can actually beat your luck at ONLINE JACKPOT bingo!

Techniques Anyone Can use:

Granville's techniques are so simple anyone can use them. There's no complicated figuring, no giant mental calculations to be done. Granville lays out the simple step-by-step procedures for you to follow which automatically turn any game of ONLINE JACKPOT bingo you play in your favor.

Sound impossible? It isn't. Extensive study of thousands of games has led Granville to the inescapable conclusion that every ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game follows definite patterns… patterns the average player is completely unaware of. By utilizing these patterns, Granville had discovered how to beat the odds at ONLINE JACKPOT bingo. Now you can too!

Startling Discoveries About Card Selection:

Naturally, the heart of any winning ONLINE JACKPOT bingo system is card selection. Granville has isolated crucial relationships between winning ONLINE JACKPOT bingo numbers and the master board. He shows you how to use these simple and proven truths to select a greater number of winning cards. Most methods players use to select their cards are completely backwards, Granville found.

Even in games where you can't select your cards, there are ways to beat the odds and come up a winner. For instance, most ONLINE JACKPOT bingo enthusiasts play several cards a game to improve their chances of winning. But does this really work? No, says Granville! The startling truth is that you can actually improve your chances of winning big by playing fewer cards in many cases. Granville proves it! Curious? Read on to find out how fewer cards can be better.

So why trust to luck when you play ONLINE JACKPOT bingo? You can make the game pay you to play. If you're honestly serious about becoming a systematic winner at ONLINE JACKPOT bingo, here is an idea that you can use today.

The most natural reaction to advancing a serious theory designed to improve the chances of winning at ONLINE JACKPOT bingo is encountered when confronting those who do not believe that such a sound theory is possible. The usual reaction to those who might devise various ONLINE JACKPOT bingo "systems" is that it is all pure fantasy. They will tell you that nobody knows what balls are going to come out of the machine and that the game is totally one of luck. While it may appear at first glance difficult to counter such a reaction, the solid structure of mathematical probability is capable of destroying the argument. The key to beating the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game lies in a clear understanding of the word random. Our typical critic will agree that the colored balls being drawn from a machine are popping out at random. Now, having a common agreement on this fact, the next step is simply to show such critics that there is far more to the word random than first meets the eye.

As every player knows, there are 75 balls in the machine, numbered from 1 to 75. The probability of any ball coming up on the first draw is exactly equal, 1 in 75, written as 1/75. Since the probabilities are equal, we call this a uniform distribution. Random for s H numbers drawn from a uniform distribution fall into predictable patterns governed by the laws of probability. Therein lies the answer to transforming the otherwise hopeless problem into a series of systematic solutions which will determine the best selection of ONLINE JACKPOT bingo cards. Granted that the balls come out of the machine at random, then three things must have a strong tendency to occur:

1. There must be an equal number of numbers ending in 1's, 2's, 3's, 4's etc.
2. Odd and even numbers must tend to balance.
3. High and low numbers must tend to balance.

Those are the three accepted tests for randomness. Unless the distribution meets those tests it is said that there is a bias and the distribution is not random. We can add a fourth test for randomness which has a peculiarly effective application at beating the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game.

This fourth test is best described by the English statistician L. H. C. Tippett in his book, Sampling.- "As a random sample is increased in size, it gives a result that comes closer and closer to the population value." Translated into simple everyday language, the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo master board of 75 numbers constitutes the "population". The average number in that population is the average of the entire 75 numbers. Going from 1 to 75, the average number on the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo board is 38. The first few numbers called in a ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game may or may not average 38, but it is certain that as the game progresses the average of the numbers called will steadily approach 38. The author will wager that not one in ten players is aware of this statistical fact. So then, when ONLINE JACKPOT bingo numbers are being called, the entire game (which consists of an average of 12 calls) is a sampling of the entire population and the larger the sample the closer the numbers will average to 38. Obviously this fact will play a key role in the strategic selection of ONLINE JACKPOT bingo cards.

The next time you play ONLINE JACKPOT bingo, note very carefully an amazing characteristic relating to the first ten numbers flashed on the master board. With very few exceptions, you will note that a preponderance of the numbers have different digit endings! The average ONLINE JACKPOT bingo player, putting all the attention on the cards rather than the master board, would tend to overlook this, the most important single characteristic of the first ten numbers called in any ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game. Since most regular games last for about ten to twelve calls or less, you will vastly improve your chances of selecting a winning card by concentrating on numbers having different digit endings.

Probability Predicts Different Digit Ending

The reason behind this important piece of information goes back to the first characteristic of drawing numbers at random from a uniform distribution. The first expectation would be that there would be an equal number of numbers ending in 1's, 2's, 3's, 4's etc. Since we are only concerned with the first ten or twelve numbers to be called, not enough balls have been drawn to expect more than a minimum of digit pairs. The laws governing a sample drawing of ten balls out of seventy five would show a strong tendency toward there being one ball with a number ending in 1, another ending in 2, another ending in 3, etc. until most of the ten digit endings are represented. The law is derived from simple probability. If the first number called in a game is N-31 then all the probabilities are increased on the next draw that the second number will not end with the digit 1 simply because there are more balls having different digit endings than there are balls left with numbers ending in 1. If the next number is G-56 then the probabilities are increased that the next number will not end in 1 or 6. For the first six numbers called in a game the probabilities are clearly in favor of all having different digit endings. From the seventh number on the probabilities favor pairing up one or more of the ending digits. This then accounts for the actual experience wherein it is shown that 60% of the first ten numbers called in any ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game will tend to have different digit endings.

To validate the writer's assumption that there is a natural tendency first toward numbers having different digit endings, 49-game series was reviewed and the first ten numbers in each game is rated percentage wise for different digit endings.

Every-ONLINE JACKPOT bingo card consists of 24 numbers and the free spot in the middle. Those 24 numbers occupy 16 strategic squares, the remaining numbers covering the dead squares. The clear majority of all winning-ONLINE JACKPOT bingo combinations consist of numbers occupying strategic squares. The only time the dead squares are involved with a winning-ONLINE JACKPOT bingo combination is when the-ONLINE JACKPOT bingo is made the "hard" way, 5 straight vertical numbers, or five straight horizontal numbers. All number selections for the regular and most of the special games require the use of only the strategic squares.

How To Play ONLINE JACKPOT bingo!

ONLINE JACKPOT bingo is a game that is elegant in its simplicity -- and it's even easier online.

The objective of any style of ONLINE JACKPOT bingo is to complete the game pattern on your ONLINE JACKPOT bingo card before any other player. If you do, you have a "ONLINE JACKPOT bingo" and win the prize. Easy!

When playing online, your ONLINE JACKPOT bingo cards are randomly selected for you. Most online games give you 3 or 4 cards. Other games let you take more.

Every ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game has a caller or a display board for the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo numbers. The game pattern is also displayed.

It's important to pay attention to the pattern. You only need the numbers that form the pattern to win the game. Some patterns are much easier than others to complete. The most basic patterns are straight lines in a horizontal, vertical or diagonal direction. Another simple and popular game is the "blackout" or "coverall" where you have to cover the whole card.

The numbers are announced quickly, usually 10 seconds apart, so you must pay careful attention to the numbers that are called and mark them quickly and accurately on your cards. Some games automatically mark the numbers on your card for you, but that takes much of the fun out of the game.

The play continues until one or more players claim ONLINE JACKPOT bingo. Then the game stops immediately and the numbers are verified. If there's a winner announced, the prize is awarded. If there is more than one winner, they split the prize.

Next the players get new cards and a new pattern is displayed. And a new ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game begins!

How Does ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Actually Work ?

what Players experience?

This article took a little time, as in-between writing I've got a ONLINE JACKPOT bingo game running to remind myself of what happens!

Now I might not fit the typical ONLINE JACKPOT bingo player demographic (actually I've never visited a 'dirt world' ONLINE JACKPOT bingo hall in my life) but the games are actually very addictive!

To start, a player will create an account and deposit payment (usually a $25 minimum). Games start every few minutes depending on the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo host - for example my test game above is being played on ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Fantasy which has games every six minutes.

Games vary in cost with most game cards costing approx. 25 cents each, the jackpots vary based on the number of players/cards in play per game. All ONLINE JACKPOT bingo cards are drawn randomly. As the game starts the software draws the balls and automatically marks your cards off for you. At the same time a chat window allows players to chat during the game.

There is also a 'chat master' who welcomes the players and keeps everyone coming back!

One of the more addictive qualities of the game is that as the software provides a countdown of your 'numbers to go' the other players use the chat facility to call out how far they have to go and their required numbers. This has the effect that you often 'feel' as though you are close to winning and keep coming back for more - it's not long before your playing a great many cards per game!

ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Affiliate Programs - Market Potential

The online Casino Affiliate Marketing industry was undoubtedly the most profitable Affiliate sector of all time. During the previous five years, Affiliates located all over the world were scrambling to sign-up for the Next-Generation Affiliate Program, looking to cash-in on the explosive growth of the iGaming industry. There's no doubt that thousands of people earned a lot of money - in fact, a handful of Casino Super Affiliates claimed to earn six digit monthly commission checks!

Today, it appears as though the road to Casino Affiliate wealth has already been paved. Affiliates that had the marketing prudence in the mid-to-late 1990s leveraged the non-competitive pressures of the market to earn enormous profits, and will most likely continue to do so in the future. However, there are currently tens of thousands of Affiliates competing against each other for the same players, to promote the same properties, and using the same marketing techniques to provide the same boring offers. What does this entail for most Webmasters looking to cash-in on the Casino Affiliate Marketing sector? To be honest, most Casino Affiliates should get out of the Casino business entirely because they don't have a game plan, the tools, or the marketing dollars to compete with the BIG players that are monopolizing the industry. For Affiliates that want to stick with their guns and continue to fight for a piece of the iGaming ground, ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Affiliate Programs will lead Webmasters up the highway to Super Affiliate success.

For the typical Webmaster, ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Affiliate Program offers serious long-term financial return. "the average ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Player is worth 3 times the value of the average Casino Player due to a much higher player retention ratio…Most depositing players wager for a full 8 months and 1 in 20 depositing players will wager anywhere from $1000-$5000 per month. And, unlike Casino Affiliate Programs, credit card charge-backs and player fraud is less likely to occur in ONLINE JACKPOT bingo, translating into lower operating costs for our ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Partners and higher profit margins for our Affiliates".

Therefore, if you're a Webmaster looking to support and cash-in on the iGaming industry, then you should consider joining the leading ONLINE JACKPOT bingo Affiliate Program.

"Going to the ONLINE JACKPOT bingo hall is like any other social outing."
