Riverbend Communication's purpose is to assist you in the understanding, development and maintenance of your organizational or professional World Wide Web presence. The Internet is the most exciting new development in our society today. It seems that every time we see an advertisement, turn on the television, listen to the radio or read the newspaper or a magazine, we are hearing something else about the Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW). Businesses and organizations are flocking to the WWW as an exciting and promising new means to get their message across. Bill Gates, CEO of Microsoft has said "The Internet is the greatest marketing tool since the television and telephone." As we all know, Americans love nothing more than convenience. A little over 20 years ago, the Internet was being developed for government and educational use only. Now the fastest growing use of this Information Superhighway is commercial marketing. With over 40 million people worldwide currently on the Internet, and millions of new users getting on line each month, the growth is skyrocketing and creating not only a huge domestic marketplace, but a global one as well. Experts project that commerce on the Internet will exceed $200 billion by the year 2000. "Those who establish their business or organizational presence on the Internet now, will have a huge advantage over those who wait to follow later."
