We wish it were more and believe it will be more. One selling point for the Galaxy Mall is that the company does not try to extract large fees from its clients once they are set up in business. But if more ongoing revenue streams can be established, leveraging the business at no significant cost, that will be ideal. Several small streams exist that are likely to grow. The capacity is there to host simple home pages or sites for substantial businesses.
Fees are competitive but allow the company a healthy profit margin.
Banner Source is a Galaxy division that acts as a clearing house for Web banner advertisements. It currently markets over 750,000 dynamic impressions daily over the Internet. This is small potatoes compared to the powerhouses of Net advertising, but it s a good start. Selling online advertising is a very profitable business and it is clearly a good fit with the company s other businesses. This program simultaneously queries all the other major search engines, so the user need only go to one source.
