As you are probably well aware there are numerous online bingo brands advertising their wares on the small screen at the moment whether it be via a full length commercial or a “bumper” at the beginning and end of each advert break. Recently we have seen new brands appear on our television screens but last week the new Virgin Bingo advert launched and we have to say, I’m quite impressed and it’s a definite improvement to the previous offering.
First impressions were “why all the women?” but then as the new Virgin Bingo advert continues it becomes apparent towards the end of the commercial they throw in Ricardo but unlike the adverts for Virgin Broadband, Ricardo is not Richard Branson (nor Usain Bolt!).

32Red is a name well known in the world of gaming online and you may well have seen the commercials for their casinos which features a farmer harvesting chips for their online casino. This theme has been carried through to the new advert for 32Red Bingo and we have to say, it’s quite impressive as bingo commercials go!
We’re used to seeing big name brands like Foxy Bingo and Wink on our television screens but 32Red Bingo is one of those sites that kind of slips under the radar because it is powered by the not so popular Microgaming bingo software, is this about to change thanks to the new 32Red Bingo advert – we think it could!

Bingo Loopy isn’t one of the best known brands on the internet but it could soon be if the new Bingo Loopy advert we have found on YouTube hits the television screens. As bingo players we are all well aware of the power of offline marketing an online bingo brand, you only have to look at the resounding success of Foxy Bingo to know this is definitely a great way to ensure players become aware of your site.
However does the Bingo Loopy advert have the “head turning” factor? Is it an advert that will make you want to visit the brand after seeing the commercial on the small screen? In all honesty I would have to say no, it’s pretty mediocre to say the least.

When it comes to advertising your bingo wares on television there appears to be three main “must haves” when making a commercial for an online bingo site. The three main ingredients are bingo balls, a laptop or PC (soon this may morph into a hand held device like an iPad) and last but not least a woman! Of course these ingredients are not set in stone, nor do they feature predominantly in the best known marketing campaign for online bingo BUT lesser brands without the budget of some of the big names consistently churn out the same story board but with different music and Bingo Street, unfortunately, is no different.
I can honestly say I haven’t seen the Bingo Street commercial on television personally but I have seen the advert on YouTube and it isn’t one of the TV Bingo commercials that really grabs you attention.

Ricardo, the face of Virgin Bingo is back on the small screen advertising his online bingo brand and this time the theme of the commercial is the new welcome bonus. If you deposit £5 at Virgin Bingo and spend it on bingo tickets then you will get a 500% cash match bonus – £25 to be exact! This offer is only around until 20th November 2011 so if you have yet to register with the site and fancy a bit of free cash, then you should get over there now!
The rest of the commercial from Virgin Bingo looks pretty similar to what we have seen before from this brand – Ricardo the singing jalapeno who looks like Richard Branson just belts out a little ditty about the free games available.
