Online Bingo Award Winners announced

January 5, 2008 - The Which Bingo ‘Online Bingo Site of the Year awards 2007’ have been announced and three online bingo sites are celebrating after collecting the most sought after awards in the industry.

Online bingo players flocked to WhichBingo.com (http://www.whichbingo.com) and Which Bingo UK (http://www.whichbingo.co.uk), the leading bingo portals in the world, in droves to name the sites they felt were most deserving of the ‘Online Bingo Site of the Year’, ‘UK Online Bingo Site of the Year’ and ‘New UK Online Bingo Site of the Year’ awards.

The votes totalled more than double the number received in 2006, reflecting the widespread growth in popularity of online bingo, particularly in the UK.

The winner of the ‘WhichBingo.com Site of the Year 2007’ award goes to a site described as “the ultimate bingo experience”. A bright future lay ahead when this site achieved a top five position in the WhichBingo.com New Site of the Year awards in 2005 and now that potential has been fulfilled. Congratulations to Bingo Billy, the International Site of the Year for 2007.

The UK Site of the Year award recognises and rewards excellence in UK online bingo, as voted by the most important people in the game - the players. The 2007 award goes to the site that finished fourth in the previous year’s voting and lays claim to being the first ever standalone UK online bingo site. Which Bingo UK is delighted to name Think Bingo as the ‘2007 UK Online Bingo Site of the Year’. Upon hearing of their win a spokesperson at Think Bingo said “We are delighted to receive this prestigious award on behalf of our Think Bingo members and chat moderators. It is them that set Think Bingo apart and demonstrate that you don’t have to be the biggest to be the best”.

The inaugural ‘New UK Site of the Year’ award was a similarly close run contest, with the best new sites in the business all competing for the title. The votes have been counted and Which Bingo UK is delighted to announce that the New Site of the Year 2007 is Gone Bingo UK.

Phil Fraser, owner of Which Bingo said, “we are amazed each year that we run these awards as to how dedicated players are to their favourite online bingo sites. Their enthusiasm for their preferred bingo game knows no bounds. I’d like to congratulate all our 2007 winners on their success and look forward to another great year for online bingo in 2008.”
