Making A Difference…

Everything on the web is expected to be free of charge. Google offers their products for free. Most other things are free as well. Is this a good thing ?

I used to think it’s a good thing since I don’t have to shell out huge sums of money and I can get all these nifty services. That is until you try to build a business on the web. Guess what ? Whatever you are offering is expected to be free as well… Where do you get your revenue from ? Is advertising the only source of revenue that is available for services offered on the web ?

I suppose this can be good if you view it from the perspective that it forces you, as the provider of service, to tap into your creative brains and come up with breakthrough business models.

What types of breakthrough business models do you think is available for services on the web ?
