39%Of The Worlds Population Is Online!!! Oh The Joy!
According to the International Telecommunications Union 39% of the worlds population is online. That is 2013 numbers.
This is up from 16% in 2005.
2013 - 7.1 billion people times 39% = 2.769 billion online users.
2005 - 6.5 billion people times 16% = 1.040 billion online users
What does this information mean to us?
- In 8 short years the number of people online has almost tripled.
- People are living longer ( and still buying stuff)
- Our kids and grandkids are already connected (they are making tablets for infants)
- At this growth rate in 8 years 5 billion people will be online.
I could go on but I want to get to the good part!
We are in the right place at the right time. We are already starting to see the percentage of goods and services sold online increase year after year and the percentage of goods sold offline go down year after year. People are moving to shopping online in droves.
Those who create quality content within a niche can and will become very successful in a relatively short period of time.
Think About This
As more and more people come online and as more and more people see that the shopping dollars are moving online then it only makes sense that more and more people are going to, like us, want to take advantage of that trend.
Hmmmm.... Where could a person learn how to create a business online?
I wonder if there is a place they could get started for free?
Whats that you say? Here at Wealthy Affiliate!
So you mean to tell me that they are going to pay us to tell people where they can learn to build an online business for a niche that they will get paid for by telling people about other products and services.
That's Brilliant!!!! Whoever came up with this needs a gold star.
We are riding on a wave that is turning into a tsunami!
We (YOU) are in prime position for potential profits that will allow you to not only live the life of your dreams but help so many others do the same.
It is time to put the pedal to the metal and get busy!!! You are worth it. Believe that!

I have been known to bring up some good points now and again..lol, cant tell the wife that though!
Like you stats Rod, I have some more interesting stats for all to see, to make that wave ten to twenty times bigger. Over 50% of Internet users access the Internet via a mobile device and trust this will rise even more.
Currently there are 1,360,000 smartphones being activated every day and that's not even including iphones!. So you can just imagine how important it's going to have a website that is optimized for mobile devices. Ah, technology is grand isn't it.
I've purchased my surfboard and are riding this one all the way..lol. And wealthy affiliate is a great place for this to happen, you are 100% on the money there Rod.
