WELCOME TO THE SITE FOR UK VIRTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATES.

Q) What is a Virtual Business?
A) This answer below is reproduced (with thanks) from the site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Business
A virtual business (or Internet business), is a business which operates without a corresponding physical identity and transacts entirely via the Internet.
Amazon.com is an early example of a virtual business. As an onlinebookstore it delivers bookstore services without the physical store presence; efficiently connecting buyers and sellers without the overhead of a brick-and-mortar location.
As Web 2.0 services have rise in popularity, many businesses have begun to use these communicative and collaborative technologies to reach their customers. With heightened security, PCI DSS compliance regulations, and more stringent monitoring abilities, credit card transactions via the Internet are even more secure than other options such as phone or fax.
Along with connecting customers with physical products, virtual businesses are starting to provide important services as well. Recently, the online delivery of professional services such as administration, design, and marketing services have risen in popularity. Such companies have refined their offerings to include services such as a Virtual Assistant, in which the person providing the service works out of his/her own office and provides services via the Internet or other technology.
The definition of virtual business also includes businesses that solely operate in a virtual world.
