 The Internet has
woven itself into American life.
In the last 10 years, the Internet has reached
into just about every realm of modern life. It has changed the way we work, communicate,
get our news, shop, learn, etc. The Web has become the "new normal."
On a typical day, approximately 70 million
people log on to use e-mail, check
the news and weather, look up information, participate
in auctions, book travel reservations, research their genealogy - to name just
a few activities. That is a 37 percent increase from
the 51 million Americans who were online on an average day in 2000. The composition of the online population
has also changed. At first, the Internet's user population was
dominated by young, white males with high incomes and a high level of education.
Later, in 1999 and 2000, the population went mainstream;
more women came online and now make up the majority of Internet users. More minority
families also use the Internet, as well as, more people with modest levels of
income and education. Those who don't
go online now constitute an ever- shrinking minority. These are just some of the many reasons
for you to establish your presence on the Internet. I would be happy to show you
how a Web site could benefit your business! |
