You ask ... "Why should we have a presence on the Web?"

And the answer is very, very clear.... The World Wide Web enables you to get information about your company and its products and services to tens of millions of people worldwide. It lets you provide support to your existing customers easily and at no charge. It allows you to offer as much information about your company as you like for potential customers to see. The Web does all this 24 hours per day, 7 days per week for a cost that put other marketing techniques to shame.

With an estimated market of over 50 million people (and growing at a very rapid rate), the World Wide Web is much more just another form of advertisement, it is a marketing tool that can be designed for any of a number of reasons. Every company today is either currently on the Web or thinking of how they are going to get there. Why is this? An online presence for your company is simply an increasingly bigger part of your business' overall marketing strategy and effect.   Look at the benefits that the Internet and the Web provide companies today...
