Even if you don't know much about online gaming, it is pretty obvious that online casinos are more popular than online bingo rooms. You rarely see a banner add or a commercial for an online bingo site, but online casino advertising is a lot more prevalent. Why is this exactly, and are we currently experiencing a shift?

One of the main reasons online casinos are more popular than online bingo rooms is because online casinos were developed first and had a "head start", for lack of a better phrase. Online casinos were already pretty popular before the first online bingo site that offered real money play was even developed. Acting first was a huge advantage for online casinos.

Next, online casino games are more familiar to the gambling crowd. Sure, everyone knows about bingo, but they usually see it in a different light - playing for fun or being used as a tool for fundraising. But, when people think of online casinos, they instantly think of blackjack, craps, and making big money.

Finally, online casinos traditionally have offered more variety than online bingo sites. For example, even the smallest online casinos offer 20 or more games for their patrons to play, and this variety brings in a lot of players. It is important to note, though, that many online bingo sites are starting to embrace this and offer casino games along side their online bingo offerings. But, more on that later...

A lot of people wonder, though, if we are starting to experience a mass exodus from online casinos to online bingo rooms. The verbiage used above may be a little strong, but we are definitely experiencing a change in what online gamblers prefer.

Take 888bingo for example... This is a high quality online bingo room, one of the first introduced on the Internet. They offer high quality customer service, a great gaming platform, and a wide selection of bingo and casino games. They are experiencing consistent growth, and are actually on pace to pass the player base of many major online casinos in a few years. Based on this information, it seems as though online casino play is starting to cede to online bingo.

However, this is not a bad thing. As previously mentioned, 888bingo offers not only bingo games, but also online casino games, so it really is a one stop shop for all your online gaming needs.

Online casinos are more popular than most online bingo sites at this time, but we are experiencing a shift and they will soon not be as dominant as they were in the past.
