There's been a sharp rise in the popularity of online casinos in the past decade. What was once considered to be the smaller cousin of traditional casinos has turned out to be the leader of the pack. And this didn't happen by accident; it's the cumulation of hard work within the industry, as well as broader external influences. In this post, we'll outline some of the key reasons why online casinos caught up with and then surpassed traditional casinos.
The best casinos in the world have a staggering range of games to play. However, most people don't live near the world's best casinos, which are largely based in Las Vegas. In most traditional casinos, the games available are largely limited to the “classic” games. That's not the case at online casinos, which have all the traditional offerings plus a whole host of innovative games. Indeed, that you're playing cutting-edge games is a big part of why punters elect to play online even when they have a real-world casino within driving distance. In online casinos, you'll find forward-thinking slot games such as Finn and the Swirly Spin, which uses a grid system rather than reels, 3D games which offer an immersive experience, and games based on the latest movie franchises, such as the Marvel movies.
There's also the matter of accessibility. Most people don't live within driving distance of a real-world casino. Unless you live near a major city, there'll be no quick and easy option if you want to play casino games - unless, that is, you play online. You don't need any special equipment, there's no travel time to account for, and you can wear whatever you want. That's an appealing proposition to gamers. Even if they may visit a real-world casino for special occasions, most of their gaming will take place online.
The competitive nature of online casinos means that customers can get something they would not get elsewhere: introductory deals. In Las Vegas, casinos are happy to offer discounted hotel rooms to attract customers to their establishments, but there's no way to play games for free. In the online world, it's different. Not only do websites need to offer introductory deals to attract the interest of customers; they need to offer better deals than other websites. That helps to create an environment that's highly advantageous to customers, who can try their hand playing on a variety of websites, and a variety of games, without having to think too much - or, in the case of free games, at all - about how it's impacting their finances.
Online casino websites knew that people wouldn't come just because they were there. In order to attract customers, they had to offer something valuable. They had to think about the user experience. And that's just what they did. Head to an online casino, and you'll find a smooth, sleek, modern experience that has clearly been well thought out and expertly designed. And with new design touches being added all the time - for example, virtual reality gaming - you sense that the quality of the user experience is only going to improve further in the coming decade.
And it's not just the design elements that have helped to create a great user experience. The industry has gone above and beyond to increase the safety and security of online playing, which helps to create an environment of trust. That's crucial for any online business, but especially so in the casino industry.
Traditional casinos will always have their place, but thanks to their high levels of innovation and modernity, it seems that online casinos are the future of the industry.
