The California Gold Rush (1848–1855) began on January 24, 1848, when gold was found by James W. Marshall at Sutter's Mill in Coloma, California. The news of gold brought some 300,000 people to California from the rest of the United States and abroad (taken from Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Gold_Rush).
The Internet is very similar to the Gold Rush of the 1800's. Many are seeking to stake their claim in hopes of finding prosperity. Some will be successful, many will not. Usually, the difference between success and failure is having the right tools.
Today, a company stakes their claim to the Internet by means of a webpage. Having the right tools means having a professional webpage that appeals to your target market! Just having a web page is not enough. It must be professionally orchestrated to include Search Engine Optimization (SEO) incorporated into the design of the site. A successful website will also include navigation, content, and design that will draw prospective clients to contact you about your product or purchase your product online.
