6 Ways to Capitalize on the Growth of the Internet

There are about 2 billion websites listed on the Internet today. Thats about 76,000 times the number of sites that existed in 1998. That is a pretty nice rate of growth. The question is, how can we capitalize on that? Lets make a few assumptions based on this information:

1) We can expect that the number of websites will continue to grow. Each of these new websites will need a place to be hosted. Look for quality companies that are among the best in the field and join their affiliate programs. These can be very profitable programs because you collect a check every time someone makes a payment. In addition, many of the sites will seek out domain names, look for the largest of these companies to continue to do well.

2) Most of these newer websites will attempt to increase the traffic to their site. Seek out popular programs that cater to increasing traffic. There are numerous SEO companies and others that focus on this type of business.

3) Some of these sites will be designed and maintained by professionals. Look for large companies that offer a full range of services in this area. Companies that offer Flash sites will probably do well in the foreseeable future.

4) The number of web pages available displaying ads will continue to grow. The amount of money you collect on a per ad basis will probably decrease due to the increase in the number of sites seeking to display them. Diversify and look for innovative ways to monetize your site.

5) Internet sales will continue to soar, but, due to the increased competition, the amount of income per web site will probably decrease. The big will get bigger, and it will more difficult for new, smaller sites to make a livable wage. Use whatever you can to grow and increase traffic. It will only get more difficult in the future.

6) The popularity of Internet video has been experiencing explosive growth. If you doubt what I say, look at youtube. Video will continue to play an ever-increasing role and may eventually replace written content. Look into adding some sort of video option to your site.

By being proactive, and looking to add some of the programs mentioned above, we might be able to capitalize on future Internet trends. Dont replace the things you are doing now, especially if they are working well. Just begin to add in some of the income streams above to take advantage of future growth.
