Progression shown from internet companies
Work on the Internet gives us the opportunity to work with millions of people around the world. They could start working on the Internet from various levels of investment of money and / or time.
Give an example (from Wikipedia):
Founded in 1995 by Craig New mark. In 1999, Craigslist expanded to 9 cities, 2000 and reached across the United States in 2006, coverage had about 310 cities around the world. Their only source of income is through the collection of classified ads for employment in select cities ($ 75 per ad for the Bay Area of San Francisco, $ 25 per ad for New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Seattle, Washington, DC and listings of real estate agencies in New York ($ 10 per ad)).
Receives about 20 billion page views per month, taking over 10 million new classified ads each month, Craigslist is the service’s number one classified ads in any media. Although the company does not disclose financial information, the press has speculated that its annual revenues have grown from $ 10 million in 2004 to 150 million in 2007.
The exploits of small advances work begun on the Internet are many, and we can see that growth continues. Testimonials works continue to appear on the Internet that are initiated to achieve true wealth. Other large numbers we have at Google, with more than 20 000 employees a turnover of almost 24 billion dollars last year. We also have Twitter with 175 employees, even without a profit for their work, investors are betting on good returns and continues to receive venture capital.
Thus, the ranking that divides the annual billings for the number of employees was as follows:
1. Craigslist: more than three million 330 thousand U.S. dollars for each employee.
2. Google: it reaches only one third the leader of the list, with one million 190 thousand per worker. In this case we must consider that the number of employees is much greater (20 mil).
3. Amazon: U.S. company e-commerce was just under Google, with a million 10 000 per worker.
4. Facebook: the online community failed to pass the million-dollar barrier, leaving the not inconsiderable sum of $ 920,000.
5. eBay: The auction site for the product over the Internet, one of the pioneers in this type of transaction, it reached $ 530,000, according to data released by 37 Signals.
6. Yahoo!: amounted to $ 460,000 per employee.
7. Twitter: the virtual community appears below its main competitor, Facebook, with 142 000 $ 857 for each worker.
