Internet traffic in the UK surged by more than a third yesterday as small business employees visited sports websites to watch the vital England World Cup game.
Many businesses had not made adequate preparation for workers to watch the match, resulting in a massive spike in visits to websites such as the BBC's iPlayer.
A survey by software company Sage found that only 20 per cent of the 1,500 small businesses questioned had provided a TV or made other arrangements to prevent absenteeism.
Even if your small business wasn't prepared for the impact of the World Cup, make sure it's prepared to take advantage of the web.
With a takeaway website from Mr Site creating an online presence for your business is quick, easy and inexpensive.
