One Point Two Billion - Or MoreIn this surreal world of
internet, anyone, even you, can put your point across to a staggering number of people in every country on
planet.
From political activists to artists and writers, can now find an audience to take notice of them where they could not get much attention in their local community. Their horizons have been dramatically extended, so their work will travel on indefinately with no end in sight as in entering a collosal black hole.
Where does their online work go? Where does it come to a stop? The answer is, it will go on as long as
internet is there. Even after they have no longer maintained a web site, their work can be handed on to other sites, to add content.
There are too, website archive sites who keep copies of websites for people to look at now and in
future. Twenty years from now people will be able to look through archived websites to see what was new then, what were
prices, what
stock market was doing, what writers and artists were putting out, and
list goes on and on. Ideal for a writer in
future.
Not only will people be able to see what was going on, but in some cases will be able to hear what people had to say, for websites now are using music, video, and sound.
For those aspiring authors, and everyone it has often been said, has a book within them, can write their great work of literature, compile it to an e-book, and pass it around
internet, where it could go
rounds for ever more, long after
author has died. Conventional authors could hardly say that about their hardback or paperback books.
At this moment in time, maybe only 40% to 60% of people in any country log on to
internet every day, but
numbers keep growing every year, and for those wanting to make a living out of
internet,
future potential is enormous.
Consider
Asian market where
internet is fairly new, with China as
next real big explosive market with unlimited potential. Credit cards in China are unheard of, except for an elite minority. To receive payment for anything over
internet you would either, have to wait another 50 years if you want to be paid by credit card, or persuade your Chinese clients to open an internet payment account online with
likes of Stormpay, which is an innovative new company, who will take any form of payment to credit your new account, even cash, or bank check. Stormpay even have 'WalkUp' offices around
world in major cities and more are being established where a client can deposit cash to credit their account for use on
internet. Then
client can pay for anything on your site, e-books, software, music etc., if you also open a Stormpay account for receipt of
credits, all you need to open an account initially, is an email address. Could not be simpler. Credit cards over
internet could be a thing of
past, many people still will not use credit cards over
internet because of hackers, so what better way of secure transactions do you need than a Stormpay account? It gives confidence to your clients who need not hesitate to make a payment, there and then, for whatever type of goods and services you provide.
