Making those all important planning preparations before choosing an online casino is a vital way to ensure that you don’t end up at “the wrong casino”. We don’t need to go into specifics about the wrong casino is, because it is fairly obvious that you know exactly what that means. Casino’s that don’t pay out, that have unfair games, and some that aren’t really casinos at all, but scams. So what, should you be on the lookout for then, when it comes to choosing an online casino?

Is it really all about the welcome bonus?
The first thing that will attract a player is always the same thing, the massive set of figures that flashes across the main menu, advertising how much you can pocket via a welcome bonus when you sign up. But don’t be too hasty to just jump for the big numbers, because there are other things to take into consideration.

How much is a very important question. Not just how much are they prepared to pay you, but also, how much are you going to have to wager before you can withdraw your winnings? Checking out the wagering requirements of an online casino’s welcome bonus is a great way to judge whether or not it will be worth it in the long run. A casino that offers a 100% match up to £100, and that only requires you to wager the bonus twice or thrice, is always better than an a casino that offers you a 500% match up to £5,000 but require you to stake the bonus 50 times before you can withdraw. Worse still, is an online casino that will only release your bonus in installments after you’ve wagered silly money.

Safety and security is key
Making sure you are in a safe casino is also crucial. Ideally, you’re going to want to know how good the security is, and you can’t just that their word for it I’m afraid. Does the casino hold any awards, does it have a certificate for fair play. A good casino will have both of these. An eCOGRA certificate is usually a sign of a good casino. They should also incorporate random number generators into their site, and they should be checked regularly by independent auditors for fairness too.

It is also advisable to check out some casino review sites. There are a lot of casino review sites out there that critique casinos, and special sites which excel in telling everyone which casinos should be avoided, so do a quick background check! If the casino is to be avoided, you’ll hear about it with a simple Google search more often than not.

Use common sense
There is no point in signing up to a high rollers casino if you don’t want to wager a lot. Similarly, it makes little sense joining a UK gambling site that doesn’t accept US players if you are based in the United States, or if you are under the legal gambling age. Check the payment methods and make sure you are going to be able to withdraw your funds after you win something, before you deposit. Are you sure there is a payment method that you can use. If not, why would you sign up?

It is ultimately the greed and lure of a large welcome bonus that draws in gamers to an online casino, but if you’re not careful you could get a bum deal. Some of the best casinos out there don’t offer tons of money, but just decent and honest gameplay. As long as you use your head, and always remember to compare a few casinos against one another (try them with a no deposit required bonus if you can), then you’ll know you’re in good hands.

Mobile Casinos are rapidly growing with astonishing popularity, and have been doing so over the last three to four years. In the last two years alone, many mobile casinos have rapidly expanded their games collections, from containing roughly 10 games per site in 2010, to many having over 25 to 50 games this year.

Many experts predict that within a few years time, as more and more people rely on their phones for everything from browsing the web, to making calls, texting, social networking, and taking pictures and of course playing games that the mobile casinos will eventually overtake online computer based casinos as the main form of online gambling. As the rapidly increasing figures show, they might not be too far from the mark with this prediction.

What can you play mobile casinos on?
But what then is a mobile casino? Are they strictly limited to mobile (cellular) phones? Absolutely not, as it happens. Mobile Casinos can be played across a wide range of platforms, including mobile phones such as the iPhone, Android and Windows 7 powered smartphones, and even Blackberrys, and also tablet computers, such as the iPad.

Although somewhat limited in what they can offer as opposed to an online casino at the moment, essentially, mobile casino gaming will one day reach the point where they can offer just as much as their online rivals, and still enable gamers to play on the go. Indeed, many of the top online casino sites have already opened up mobile casino applications of their own to compete with the smaller mobile casino only brands that are stealing customers away from them, in this increasingly popular market.

The story of mobile gaming
The future is bright for mobile gaming, but its past is just as fascinating. Whilst most mobile casino growth has occurred in the last two years, the story actually goes back much farther than that.

Whilst non-gambling mobile games had been around since at least 1997, with Nokia’s famous “snake” game, the idea that mobile casinos might be able to wrangle themselves into the market didn’t really hit home to almost a decade later, with the advent of Wi-Fi. The problem was simple. How could mobile casinos operate, with an internet connection, without charging users large sums of money to use the net?

Free Wi-Fi solved this problem, and as internet service providers began to make special packages for phone internet use only, more and more people began logging on, whilst using their phones on the move. The opportunity was ripe for the mobile casino; all it would require was the spark that touch screen gaming (via smartphones and iPhones) brought to ignite the fire.

As mobile phones became more and more popular, with many consumers desperate to snap up the latest model, it was just assumed that people would want to try out the new capabilities the phones had, and the gamble paid off. People began to try out gambling via their phone, and the modern mobile casino craze began.

And then came the tablets. The ability to browse the net and play games online via a mobile phone, gave some ingenious inventors an idea. Could they make a hybrid, a phone and a PC in one, that was lighter, more efficient than a laptop, and that responded to touch? The tablets enabled mobile casinos to expand that little bit further still.

Yet still, initially the mobile casino wasn’t living up the expectations people had predicted. Mobile casino sites were still small, with only a handful of games. When the larger sportsbook/casinos began to take an interest in their new competition and develop their own versions, everybody paid attention. Mobile casinos upgraded their collections, and entered in direct competition with one another. More and more appeared, and more and more gamers switched the more convenient no hassle, on the game gaming devices.

The future of mobile casinos
The situation today has seen many mobile casino only sites battling it out against the bigger, larger sportsbook/online casino’s mobile casino applications, and there is no sign of an end to this. Mobile gaming had to fight to get where it is today, but soon it’ll beat off its online competition, and ride atop the wave just nicely, until the next big thing comes knocking.

The U.K.s leading Bookmaker, William Hill, recently revealed that its’ current Chief Executive Officer, Ralph Topping, who had originally been expected to step down from his position with the firm at the end of this year, will now lead the group until at least the end of 2015.

William Hill’s board is very happy with Topping’s intention to remain with the group for a further period of two years and issued a statement saying that they will continue to manage the succession planning for the role of chief executive officer which they are doing by looking both internally as well as externally.

After having spent a period of 38 years with William Hill, Topping was given the role of Chief Executive Officer of the group in 2008. Topping had a large role in pushing William Hill both online as well as overseas during his time as head of the UK gambling group and a short while ago spent in excess of 800 million pounds on deals to buy out William Hill’s online partner Playtech and the acquisition of rival gambling firm Sportingbet’s operations in Australia.

Following Topping’s recent acceptance of a retention bonus of 1.2 million pounds, he was profusely criticized by William Hill’s shareholders with close to half of the group’s investors voting against the enormous pay deal.

Market analysts are of the opinion that William Hill is currently in a very strong market position as the industry moves from traditional betting to online and mobile betting.

Total dividends of 7.5p per share were paid out by William Hill in 2009 which was increased to 10.4p per share in 2012. Analysts are predicting that the dividends will reach 11.4p this year and 12.7p in 2014.

See their website’s promotional section to read more about their welcome and other bonuses and remember to also read the bonus fine print while you are there.
