How many websites do you visit each day? Do you even have an accurate number or is it more than you could count? A recent Nielsen study unveiled an average internet user in the US views 115 different websites each day. Well, that's a lot of websites! Oddly than that, many of us views even more websites than that on a daily basis. What type of websites do you view? Is it commerce, communities, or blogs? For most, it is a combination of all the mentioned. In order to get your business noticed in this digital age, companies have to make their brand accessible. Utilizing 2 or 3 portals are not enough. Brands must realize that they have to extend their efforts beyond their comfort zones in order to succeed in the digital age. Look at the above statistics and then think about your consumption of traditional media sources. How much TV do you watch? Do you get your news from television or a newspaper, or doyou turn to the web to get it? When was the last time you visited a library, or do you simply go to the internet to find the information that you need? The web has changed the way we do business and live our everyday life. We should expect this trend to only increase overtime. Going back to the point made back earlier, the information means that marketers and advertisers have to embrace several digital areas. Take Technorati Online Property for example, BlogCritics.org. This freshl designed website tries to bridge the gap between journalist and bloggers by setting a high quality content precedent. The site provides valuable content but delivers it in a community atmosphere. There are countless properties like this on the web and businesses simply need to find which ones can be integrated into their business model.

I browse more than 115 pages on a daily basis. It's mainly social network sites, blogs and survey websites. So pretty much the 3 you stated. Right now I find that I'm watching much less TV than I used to because of the introduction to TV-On-Demand online. I get my news mainly from a headling RSS feed. I very rarely visit the library these days because most of the information I need is right here in front of me.
