According to a recent survey by Nielsen Media Research and CommerceNet,
35 percent of American adults are online, and hundreds of thousands
more are jumping on daily. That's 70.5 million prospective hits for
websites every day in this country alone, up by a whopping 21 million
just nine months ago.
As the ranks of the virtual community continue to swell at a staggering
rate, the Village Profile Community Profile Network (CPN) has
grown as well. The innovative website, at www.villageprofile.com, is
the prime access site for Village Profile Chamber of Commerce publications,
www.villageprofile.com/illinoisbusiness and Illinois Business Magazine.
It has been online since 1995 and is the largest and most powerful of
its kind on the web, receiving over 250,000 hits per month. Village
Profile's founder and President, Dan Nugara, sees the tremendous potential
of the site.
"The Community Profile Network provides advertisers throughout
the U.S. with the opportunity to reach a global audience - at no cost.
The nature of this rapidly expanding website allows advertisers to
build even stronger relationships with customers and prospects and allows
for important two-way exchange of information in the form of comments
and feedback.
Welcome to the 21st Century.
