Report Information

With more than 50 million small and SOHO business employees having access to the Internet in 1999, the opportunity for online destinations targeting these markets is phenomenal. Online business centers provide content and community to small business users, in addition to many offering commerce and consulting capabilities. These services help to make the Internet a useful and powerful tool for small business users. Because of the unique value these sites provide so many small business users, In-Stat believes online business centers will emerge as a key channel to reaching and teaching small business customers. These firms will eventually fit tightly into the Application Service Provider value chain in the role of the "business services provider." This report assesses the OBC market and ranks the leading sites, including detailed profiles of the top ten providers.
