The last several years saw the emergence of the dot-com company as well as the demise of hundreds. The question then becomes, what does it take to become a dot-com survivor? What factors have contributed to a dot-com success? And what factors have contributed to its failure? This article sets out to answer these questions based on articles that have been written on this dot-com phenomenon, as well as the personal experience of one who has had a first-hand look and experience at a dot-com firm. The aim is to ultimately compare current dot-coms and predict their possibilities of success and then track their progress over time.

Keywords: dot-com, Internet
