888 Holdings reports revenue growth in 2014

High-ranking company executives for the online gambling provider, which runs several popular gaming sites, have attributed the growth to increasing online casino and sportsbook popularity, indicating that the online gambling model contributes to organizational growth when effectively implemented.

The revenue total for 2014 fiscal just released by the company indicates a total of US$ 455 million (£304 million), reflecting a total increase of US$ 54 million.

As for fears of saturation in large online gambling markets such as the UK, 888 Holdings’ officials revealed that up to 44% of revenue was still generated within the United Kingdom, with the rest of Europe's markets and the US market rounding out the with 38% and 12% of 888 Holding's respectively.

Of 888's websites, the most impressive performance over the past year is the growth of 115% shown by 888Sport, attributed to the effectiveness of the company's market strategy in increasing the visibility and popularity of its own products and services. The online component of marketing and positioning cannot be overlooked, in terms of how any online companies increase their appeal in competitive markets.

Improvement in online marketing along with structural improvements would be a more welcome adaptation for 888 in bingo activity, as bingo income showed the most modest increase, at 7%. Suffice to say, even the weakest spots among online gambling provider 888 Holdings showed growth, so everything is certainly moving in the right direction—not only for 888 as a private business, but for the entire online gambling industry.
