People who have a day job and a home business need an ISP provider, an email server, and sufficient memory and compatibility in their hardware for the latter. They also manage the family bills, taxes and
expenses from their home computers, and buy backup equipment in case of power outages, crashes, fire or theft. Many are gadget lovers; others are true Internet aficionados and visit online chat groups,
and news sites tailored to their professions or avocations. Online consumerism is still surging: If you can get them to your website, they will buy your wares, using any of the forms of Pay Pal or
CyberCash in addition to traditional payment methods.
