WHY EBAY?
eBay has become the most popular auction site on the WWW since it was founded in 1995.
Just a few interesting facts:~
- eBay has a membership of well over 244 million people in 24 countries This year 07, the first quarter net income hit $377 million this quarter compared with $248.3 million last year.
- The full years profits are expected to reach up to 7.45billion, with paypal contributing 25% of eBay's total sales.
- How is eBay doing all this? Well apart from it's successful marketplace, it also owns Paypal, Prostores, Skype, Shopping.com, Rent.com and several online classifieds like Kijiji, Gumtree.com, LoQUo.com, Intoko, Netherlands-based Marktplaats.nl, and German automotive classifieds site mobile.de, and owns a minority investment in craigslist.
- Oh they don't stop there: This year eBay aquired Stubhub (provider of concert, sports and event tickets) for $310 million this year and MySpace founder Chris DeWolfe has hinted the Murdoch-owned social network will bring in eBay to provide it with ecommerce features.
