SMEs are failing online - October 06The Internet is the world's fastest growing industry, creating a global market.

The UK's largest businesses lead the way and enjoy the lion's share of internet income. Making up just two per cent of Britain's online businesses, they account for 75 per cent of the internet's UK revenue - sharing more than £53.4bn a year. 'Small and medium sized businesses are missing out on the net's full potential,' said Jones. 'The figures are staggering. Fewer than eight per cent of all SMEs are profiting directly from the web.'
