Back in 1999, when Speednet Group began construction of Lottery Post, people seeking information about lotteries on the Web could end up frustrated by a lack of online support. Lottery players often felt cut off from others who enjoyed their hobby, since the technologists who typically built Web sites at the time did not really understand lottery players and their needs. It was a grossly under-served market.
Lottery Post started as a simple online forum where lottery players could communicate about strategies, methods, predictions, mathematics, and other lottery-related topics. Over time, as Speednet continued adding innovative, original features, technology, and content to the site, Lottery Post attracted new members through word of mouth and general search engine traffic, and grew into a thriving community.
This Entertainment industry leading platform provides an insight into the potential of bringing together online communities and hobbies. Although there is no information on the current headquarters, the rich history and the growth of Lottery Post can potentially attract investment interest from various venture capitalists, especially those focused on consumer-driven platforms and communities.
