Canadians live online. In a recent study by Ipsos Reid that tracked how many hours citizens of eleven major countries spend online each month, Canadians doubled the world average at 44 hours per month. The United States was a distant second at 35 hours per month. Clearly Canadians have embraced the Internet. And beyond our own borders, Canada is respected around the world as a leading, enlightened, and progressive nation. Economically, socially, and politically, Canada is seen as a desirable place for tourism, investment, business, immigration, and education.

A good domain name is a key part of your online marketing strategy. Also called a URL, a domain name is the address a customer uses to go to your website. An example of a domain name is canadabusiness.ca. You can register your domain name directly through an Internet Service Provider or through a domain registration company.

Developing your website is a multi-step process. When you begin to implement your website, it is important for you to understand each of the steps in the process and how they fit together.
