"Influence. It's a good thing." --MacAddict

iFactor: A
quotient comparing a company's current state of Web influence to its current state of
sales, for an estimate of future sales growth in the global e-commerce market.
Those companies with an iFactor of more than 1.0 are expected to perform
better in the future market, whereas those with an iFactor of less than 1.0 may possibly
decline. |

Internet Trends: The Internet is growing at a rate never
seen in the history of media. Since 1995, the number of Web sites with unique domain names
has quadrupled every year, and some have estimated that the amount of traffic doubles
every 100 days. This, only one year after a growth rate of more than 100% per year was
considered high.

Web Influence: Television ads
may show a spurt in users of your site for a short time, but your Web site must gain a
steady traffic of consumers in order to maintain significant, long-term business. This can
be best achieved through Web Influence, where your business is known by a wide
audience who considers it a valuable tool. Web
