MARINA DEL REY, Calif., Nov. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Bingo.com Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: BIGR), a fast-growing entertainment site and game
application service provider (ASP), today announced that a study from Media
Metrix has positioned the company as the 'Stickiest Site on the Web' for
September 2000. According to Media Metrix, the world's leading provider of
Internet and Digital Media measurement services, the Bingo.com website ranks
number one with nearly 350 average minutes spent per month for each user of
the site in September. The company outranked such popular Internet
destinations as ebay.com, datek.com, pogo.com. and others.
"Simply drawing people to your site is not enough for Internet companies
who depend on advertising revenues in today's highly competitive marketplace,"
said Shane Murphy, Bingo.com's chief executive officer. "The name of the game
in today's marketplace is keeping people on your site as long as possible.
That is why this ranking from Media Metrix is so important -- not only for
Bingo.com but also for other Internet destinations that can, or do, use our
entertainment services. It is extremely gratifying to be rated on top, in
terms of average monthly usage, for the third time in six months by three
different measurement services."
The company also announced 10.5 million visitors to the Bingo.com site
during the most recent quarter, including some 3.3 million-player sessions
offered to the company's registered users. The visitor session length grew to
an average of approximately 65 minutes, compared to a 50-minute average in the
first quarter and 62 minutes in the second quarter.
