Since we bloggers spend a significant portion of our day in the internet, this article should be of interest. On a single day that we blog, there are more than millions of occurrences throughout the cyber world, as the infographic below shows. 294 billion emails sent, 2 million blog posts, 4.7 billion minutes spent on Facebook…and more iPhone sold than babies born! The facts are indeed staggering!
As more and more business is conducted online, more and more business opportunities are created due to the massive size of the internet. Companies like Amazon, Apple, and even Walmart are giants in e-commerce and their online revenues are continuing to soar. Last year, e-commerce raked in $680 billion worldwide. And on Black Friday alone, Amazon sold 32 items per second.
With the help of services like Facebook, Twitter, and email, companies are able to reach practically anybody on the internet – all 6.8 billion of them. Those pursuing an MBA will definitely need to consider the shear size of the internet when making their future business decisions. And the numbers behind the size of the internet are staggering. In fact, they’re almost unbelievable.
