UK SME Businesses

[Fluffster]

Hi
I am doing research on Small to Medium Enterprises (SME) in the UK.
Does anyone know how many SMEs have active websites in the UK?
I'm going to contact the DTi as well to see if they can help.
A figure that has been thrown around is 12.5k but I'm not sure if this is realistic.

Thanks in advance

First you would need to define SME -
if it's 1-50 employees I think it's way more than that.
if it's 1-250 employees I think it's way way more than that.
if it's 50-250 employees I think it's more than that.

(I think if you'd go and ask the Company house, they also might be able to help.)

Hi Leo

Many thanks for your reply.
What I am specifically looking for is how many companies are there out there (SME's - say companies with less than 250 employees) with a website or at least a web presence.
I Have contacted the Chambers and the DTi and am waiting for there response however, I was just after a ball park figure.
Cheers
