Twenty-Four million Chinese small and medium enterprises are getting an
additional push to go online from the China Internet Network Information Center
with a project aimed at bridging the digital divide among different regions in
the mainland and stimulate growth in online businesses.
The CNNIC launched a program called "Project Growth" at the end of June which
offers a suite of options including domain registration support, Website
building assistance, and tips on online marketing for SMEs.
There are over 24 million companies in China, but only about 400,000 have
their own Websites, according to statistics provided by the CNNIC. More than
half of the Websites attract only less than 50 pageviews a
day.
