  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
  <P>
  The accompanying reviewed financial statements are
  presented in accordance with generally accepted
  accounting principles for interim financial information
  and the instructions to Form 10-Q and item 310 under
  subpart A of Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not
  include all of the information and footnotes required by
  generally accepted accounting principles for complete
  financial statements.  The accompanying statements should
  be read in conjunction with the audited financial
  statements for the year ended October 31, 2000.  In the
  opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only
  of normal occurring accruals) considered necessary in
  order to make the financial statements not misleading,
  have been included.  Operating results for the three
  months and nine months ended July 31, 2000 are not
  necessarily indicative of results that may be expected
  for the year ending October 31, 2000.  The financial
  statements are presented on the accrual basis.

  Review Report of Independent
  Certified Public Accountant
  <P>
  To the Shareholder and Board of Directors
  of Roanoke Technologies Corporation
  <P>
  We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of
  Roanoke Technology Corporation as of July 31, 2000, and
  the related statements of operations, stockholder's
  equity, and cash flows for the quarters ending July 31,
  2000 and 1999, in accordance with statements on Standards
  for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American
  Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  All
  information in these statements is the representation of
  management.
  <P>
  A review consists principally of inquiries of company
  personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial
  data.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit in
  accordance with generally accepted auditing standards,
  the objective of which is the expression of an opinion
  regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
  <P>
  Based on my review, we are not aware of any material
  modifications that should be made to the accompanying
  financial statements in order for them to be in
  conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

           NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
  <P>
  (See Audit Report)
  <P>
  1. Summary of significant accounting policies:
     -------------------------------------------
  <P>
  Industry   Roanoke Technology Corporation (The Company)
  --------
  was incorporated December 11, 1997 as Suffield
  Technologies Corp., its original name, under the laws of
  the State of Florida.   The Company is headquartered in
  Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina and does business as Top-
  10 Promotions, Inc.  The Company is engaged in the
  design, development, production, and marketing of
  technology to provide enhanced internet marketing
  capabilities.
  <P>
  Revenue Recognition and Service Warranty   Revenues
  ----------------------------------------
  resulting from technology consulting services is
  recognized as such services are performed, paid and
  complete the service guarantee of 90 days.  A deferred
  revenue account had been established in the financial
  statements to account for revenue and costs of revenue to
  be recognized in the income statement at the end of the
  service agreement period.  During February of 2000 the
  service agreement was changed thus not requiring a
  deferred revenue account.  Services are most often paid
  for in advance of the service being performed.  The
  services performed are completed by a software program
  leaving the time when a service is paid for and the time
  the service is performed immaterial. The Company has no
  extended maintenance contracts and warrants its
  consulting services to meet the consulting service
  contract guarantee.  No provision for estimated future
  costs relating warranties have been made as these
  costs have been historically immaterial.
  <P>
  Cash and Cash Equivalents   The Company considers cash on
  -------------------------
  hand and amounts on deposit with financial institutions
  which have original maturities of three months or less to
  be cash and cash equivalents.
  <P>
  Short-Term Investments   Short-term investments
  ----------------------
  ordinarily consist of short-term debt securities acquired
  with cash not immediately needed in operations.  Such
  amounts have maturities of less than one year.
  <P>
  Basis of Accounting- The Company's financial statements
  -------------------
  are prepared in accordance with generally accepted
  accounting principles.  All costs associated with
  software development and advancement are expensed as
  a cost of sales through an ongoing research and
  development program.
  <P>
  Property and Equipment   Property and equipment are
  ----------------------
  recorded at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the
  straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of
  the various classes of assets as follows:
  <P>
       Machinery and equipment            2 to 10 years
       Furniture and fixtures             5 t0 10 years
  <P>
  Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line
  basis over the lessor of the life of the asset or the
  term of the lease.  Maintenance and repairs, as incurred,
  are charged to expenses; betterments and renewals are
  capitalized in plant and equipment accounts.  Cost and
  accumulated depreciation applicable to items replaced or
  retired are eliminated from the related accounts; gain or
  loss on the disposition thereof is included as income.
  <P>
  Long-lived Assets - Long lived assets, including property
  ----------------- and equipment and certain intangible
  assets to be held and used by the Company are reviewed
  for impairment whenever events or changes in
  circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the
  assets may not be recoverable.  Impairment losses are
  recognized if expected future cash flows of the related
  assets are less than their carrying values.  Measurement
  of an impairment loss is based on the fair value of the
  asset.  Long-lived assets and certain identifiable
  intangibles to be disposed of are reported at the lower
  of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
  <P>
  Intangibles   Goodwill represents the excess of purchase
  -----------
  price over the fair value of business acquired and is
  amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 years.
  <P>
  Other acquired intangibles principally include core
  technology in the form of software programs and are
  amortized over their estimated lives of primarily 3 to 5
  years., existing Organization costs are being amortized
  by the straight-line method over 5 years.
  <P>
  Research and Development   Research and development costs
  ------------------------
  incurred in the discovery of new knowledge and the
  resulting translation of this new knowledge into plans
  and designs for new services, prior to the attainment of
  the related products' technological feasibility, are
  recorded as expenses in the period incurred.
  <P>
  Income Taxes   The Company utilizes the asset and
  ------------
  liability method to measure and record deferred income
  tax assets and liabilities.  Deferred tax assets and
  liabilities reflect the future income tax effects of
  temporary differences between the financial statement
  carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
  their respective tax bases and are measured using enacted
  tax rates that apply to taxable income in the years in
  which those temporary differences are expected to be
  recovered or settled.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by
  a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
  it is more likely than not that some portion or all of
  the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
  <P>
  Fair Value of Financial Instruments   The Company's
  -----------------------------------
  financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents,
  short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts
  payable and liabilities to banks and shareholders.  The
  carrying amount of long-term debt to banks approximates
  fair value based on interest rates that are currently
  available to The Company for issuance of debt with
  similar terms and remaining maturities.  The carrying
  amounts of other financial instruments approximate their
  fair value because of short-term maturities.
  <P>
  Earnings Per Share   Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is
  ------------------
  computed by dividing earnings available to common
  shareholders by the weighted-average number of common
  shares outstanding for the period as required by the
  Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) under
  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
  128, "Earnings per Shares".  Diluted EPS reflects the
  potential dilution of securities that could share in the
  earnings.
  <P>
  Concentrations of Credit Risk   Financial instruments
  -----------------------------
  which potentially expose The Company to concentrations of
  credit risk consist principally of operating demand
  deposit accounts.  The Company's policy is to place its
  operating demand deposit accounts with high credit
  quality financial institutions.
  <P>
  No customer represented 10 % or more of The Company's
  total sales as of the current reporting period.
  <P>
  Stock-Based Compensation   In accordance with the
  ------------------------
  recommendations in SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
  Compensation," ("SFAS No. 123"), The Company's
  management has considered adopting this optional standard
  for disclosure purposes, along with Accounting Principles
  Board opinion no. 25.  The Company may consider using
  full implementation of SFAS No. 123 at a future date.
  The Company accounted for the stock bonus of 750,000
  shares of restricted stock given to the President of the
  company as compensation.  The bonus was accounted for in
  the current period in order to match the compensation
  expense with the time in which it was earned.  In
  accordance with the tax accounting, the compensation will
  not be deductible until the President sells those shares.
  The shares are restricted from sale for a period of two
  years from the date of issuance and are accounted for at
  their fair value.
  <P>
  Recently Adopted Accounting Standards   In June 1997, the
  --------------------------------------
  FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
  Income" ("SFAS No. 130") effective for fiscal years
  beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 130 requires
  that all items that are required to be recognized under
  accounting standards as components of comprehensive
  income be reported in a statement that is displayed with
  the same prominence as other financial statements.
  <P>
  SFAS No. 130 does not require a specific format for that
  financial statement but requires that an entity display
  an amount representing total comprehensive income for the
  period in that statement.  SFAS No. 130 requires that an
  entity classify items of other comprehensive income by
  their nature in a financial statement.  For example,
  other comprehensive income may include foreign currency
  and unrealized gains and losses on certain investments in
  debt and equity securities.  In addition, the accumulated
  balance of other comprehensive income must be displayed
  separately from retained earnings and additional paid in
  capital in the equity section of a statement of financial
  position.  The Company adopted this accounting standard
  at inception as required.
  <P>
  In October 1997 the American Institute of Certified
  Public Accountants issued Statement of position 97-2,
  "Software Revenue Recognition" (SOP 97-2).  SOP 97-2
  provides guidance on applying generally accepted
  accounting principles in recognizing revenue on software
  transactions and is effective for transactions entered
  into in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
  The Company adopted SOP 97-2 at inception as required.
  Adoption of this SOP 97-2 did not have a material effect
  on the financial statements.
  <P>
  In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132,
  "Employer's Disclosure about Pensions and Other
  Postretirement Benefits" ("SFAS No. 132"), effective for
  fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.  SFAS 132
  revises employer disclosures about pension and other
  postretirment benefit plans.  It does not change the
  measurement or recognition of those plans.  This
  statement standardizes the disclosure requirements for
  pensions and other postretirement benefits to the extent
  practicable, requires additional information on changes
  in the benefit obligations and fair values of plan assets
  that will facilitate financial analysis and eliminates
  certain disclosures.  Adoption of SFAS 132, when needed
  is not expected to have a material impact on the
  financial statements.
  <P>
  In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting
  for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities",
  effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.
  SFAS 133 requires companies to record derivatives on the
  balance sheet as assets and liabilities, measured at fair
  value.  Gains or losses resulting from changes in the
  values of those derivatives would be accounted for
  depending on the use of the derivative and whether it
  qualifies for hedge accounting.  The Company's management
  believes that adoption of SFAS 133, when needed, will not
  have a material impact on the financial statements.
  <P>
  2. Related Party Transactions and Going Concern:
     ----------------------------------------------
  <P>
  The Company's financial statements have been presented on
  the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates
  the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
  liabilities in the normal course of business.
  The Company has suffered losses from operations and may
  require additional capital to continue as a going concern
  as The Company develops its new markets.  Management
  believes The Company will continue as a going concern in
  its current market and is actively marketing its products
  and/or services which would enable The Company to meet
  its
  obligations and provide additional funds for continued
  new product and/or service development.  In addition,
  management is currently negotiating several additional
  contracts for its services.  Management is also embarking
  on other strategic initiatives to expand its business
  opportunities.  However, there can be no assurance these
  activities will be successful.
  <P>
  3. Accounts Receivable and Customer Deposits:
     ------------------------------------------
  <P>
  Accounts receivable historically have been immaterial as
  The Company's policy is to have the software that it
  sells paid for in advance.  As of the balance sheet date
  there were no deposits paid in advance.
  <P>
  4. Use of Estimates:
     -----------------
  <P>
  The preparation of financial statements in conformity
  with generally accepted accounting principles requires
  management to make estimates and assumptions that effect
  the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
  disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
  date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
  of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
  <P>
  5. Revenue and Cost Recognition:
     -----------------------------
  <P>
  The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting for
  financial statement reporting.  Revenues are recognized
  when products are shipped and expenses realized when
  obligations are incurred.
  <P>
  6. Accounts Payable and accrued expenses:
     --------------------------------------
  <P>
  Accounts payable and accrued expenses consist of trade
  payables and accrued payroll and payroll taxes created
  from normal operations of the business.
  <P>
  Long   term debt consists of:
  <P>
  Note payable to a finance company which bears interest at
  16.53%.  The note is collateralized by equipment and
  requires that monthly payments of $197 be made through
  the maturity date of June, 2003.
  <P>
  Capital Lease with a finance company which bears an
  interest rate of 13.61%.  The lease is collateralized by
  equipment and requires that monthly payments of $534 be
  made through the maturity date of April, 2002.
  <P>
  Aggregate maturities of long   term debt over the next
  five years are as follows:

  of sales.
  <P>
  9. Stockholders' Equity:
     ---------------------
  <P>
  Preferred Stock
  ---------------
  <P>
  The Company has been authorized 10,000,000 shares of
  preferred stock at $.0001 par value.  As of January 31,
  1999, none of these shares had been issued and the
  limitations, rights, and preferences were yet to be
  determined by the Board of Directors.
  <P>

  <P>
  In addition to the restricted shares issued, The Company
  sold common stock through two separate private offerings
  during the period.  In the initial offering 800,000
  shares were sold each at a price of $0.025.  In the
  second offering 1,000,000 shares were sold each at a
  price of $0.05.
  <P>
  On October 15, 1998, the majority shareholders of The
  Company undertook a Regulation   D, Rule 504, offering
  whereby it sold 2,000,000 shares of common stock, $.0001
  par value per share or an aggregate of $200,000.  In
  addition, each investor in the offering  received an
  option to purchase, for a twelve month period commencing
  on the date of this offering, an additional one share of
  The Company at $1.00 per share for each eight (8) shares
  purchased in the original offering (or $250,000).  In
  addition, each investor  received an option to purchase
  for an eighteen month period commencing on the date of
  this offering an additional one (1) share of The Company

  investment in The Company was in lieu of monies owed to
  Arthur Harrison & Associates by The Company for two (2)
  promissory notes dated September 22, 1998 and October 10,
  1998.  Further more, Arthur Harrison & Associates agreed
  to waive its rights to any interest on promissory notes.
  <P>
  Stock Incentive Plans
  <P>
  On March 1, 1999, The Company entered into a stock option
  agreement with the Director of Operation, Glenn Canady,
  as noted in footnote number eleven.  The Company applies
  Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
  for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related
  Interpretations in accounting for its employee stock
  options.
  <P>
  Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings
  per share is required by SFAS 123, and has been
  determined as if The Company had accounted for its
  employee stock options under the fair value method of
  SFAS 123.  As of the balance sheet date, there is no
  material effect on earnings and earnings per share.
  <P>
  10. Acquisitions:
      -------------
  <P>
  On March 30, 1999 The Company acquired assets of Offshore
  Software Development Ltd. ("Offshore") in an exchange of
  assets for 999,111 shares of The Company issued to the
  shareholders of that company.  The Company's management
  has valued the transaction at $630,000.
  <P>
  The assets included were comprised of four computers
  valued at $8,000 and two software programs valued at
  $622,000.  The value of these assets was determined on
  the basis of the management's estimation.
  <P>
  An unusual impairment loss of $257,075 was recorded in
  October of 1999 to reflect an impairment of the
  intangible assets resulting from the acquired "Offshore"
  assets on March 30, 1999.  The impairment resulted from
  the Company's revised forecast of the cash flows expected
  from intangible assets. Amortization expenses will drop
  by $8,583 per month.
  <P>
  Effective May 29, 1998, The Company acquired all the
  outstanding common stock of Top-10 Promotions, Inc.,
  consisting of 100 shares, effective.  These shares were
  redeemed and canceled.  The 100 shares of Top-10
  Promotions, Inc. were acquired in exchange for 500,000
  "restricted" shares of The Company's common stock issued
  to David Smith, the sole shareholder of Top-10
  Promotions, Inc.  This transaction has been accounted for
  using the purchase method of accounting.  The value of
  the share exchanged by both parties was determined to be
  $19,500, including a value of $(114) attributed to the
  fair value of assets and liabilities, and $19,614 of
  goodwill attributed to the method of doing business and
  the internally developed software.
  <P>
  Simultaneous with the acquisition, The Company purchased
  all of the remaining authorized shares of Top-10
  Promotions, Inc. for $50,000 payable at closing and
  $17,500 per month payable over an eleven month period as
  other consideration.  The Company borrowed funds for this
  transaction and later, upon agreement with the lender,
  converted a portion of the amount due as capital
  contributed to The Company.   <P>
  Also, the former owner of Top-10 Promotions, Inc. was
  given the right to borrow up to 25% of retained earnings
  of Roanoke Technologies Corporation in fiscal year 1998
  or the first two quarters of fiscal 1999.  Such
  borrowings
  shall be secured by his restricted stock received in the
  acquisition at a 75% discount value to market.  Repayment
  shall be for a two- year period at a 5% annual interest
  rate.  The Company also entered into an employment
  contract with the former owner of Top-10 Promotions.
  <P>
  11. Employment Contract and Incentive Commitments:
      -----------------------------------------------
  <P>
  The Company has entered into a two year employment
  contract with the former owner of  Top-10 Promotions.
  The contract provides for: salary not to exceed $10,000
  per month (with not more than a 3% salary increase
  provided The Company is profitable by at least twice the
  amount of the salary increase); quarterly bonus of 30% of
  the net income before income tax of The Company; standard
  non-competition clause; an option to renew the employment
  agreement for an additional two year term (provided he is
  not in default under the employment agreement); and the
  following management incentives: for fiscal year ending
  September 30, 1999 (a) 100,000 "restricted" shares if the
  surviving corporation has $2 million in gross revenues;
  (b) 100,000 "restricted" shares if The Company has
  $400,000 in after tax earnings.  The shares have been
  issued at a market value of $810,000.
  <P>
  At November 1, 1998 The Company's management approved the
  issuance of 750,000 shares of restricted common shares of
  The Company to the former owner of Top-10 Promotions for
  attaining gross revenues in excess $200,000.00 or more in
  sales for the first three month period of 1999.  The
  shares have been issued at a market value of $1,181,250.
  <P>
  The Company has entered into an employment agreement with
  The Company's Director of Operations on March 1, 1999.
  The agreement calls for a contract period of four years
  upon which The Director will be paid an annual salary of
  $60,000 with standard company commissions and bonuses.
  The salary will adjust to $80,000 at June 4th 1999.  In
  addition the director's salary shall increase to $100,000
  at the time The Company's gross revenues exceed
  $1,000,000 during any twelve month period and $120,000
  once The Company's gross revenues exceed $2,000,000
  during any twelve month period.  Upon the director's
  salary increasing to $80,000 or above, the director shall
  no longer be entitled to commissions and bonuses.
  <P>
  In addition to the above mentioned, the director will be
  granted stock options in The Company at an exercise price
  of $1.00 per share of common stock in the amount of
  50,000 shares per year, after each year's service, for a
  four year period.  Such shares will be restricted for a
  two year period from the date of issuance.
  <P>
  The Company will account for these options during the
  time that they are earned in accordance with APB Opinion
  No. 25.  At the present time, the fair value of these
  options are not in excess of the exercise price and not
  exercisable; therefore there is no compensation expense
  to record.  A determination of the fair value of these
  options may be extended to the end of the current fiscal
  year.  Other conditions are included in this employment
  agreement, but remain immaterial to the financial
  statements.
  <P>
  12. Payroll Taxes Payable and Deferred Tax Assets and
      Liabilities:
      --------------------------------------------------
  <P>
  The Company accrues payroll and income taxes.  The
  Company, currently a C-Corporation, accounts for income
  taxes in accordance with Statements on Financial
  Accounting Standards 109.   As of July 31, 2000, The
  Company had a deferred tax asset in the amount of
  approximately $440,000 that is derived from a net
  operating tax loss carryforward associated with stock
  compensation.  The deferred tax assets will expire during
  the years ending
  October 31, 2018 and 2019 in the amounts of $40,000 and
  $400,000 respectively.  It is uncertain as to when this
  compensation will be deductible as it can only be
  deducted for tax purposes when the officers sell the
  respective shares.
  <P>
  13. Required Cash Flow Disclosure for Interest and Taxes
      Paid:
      ----------------------------------------------------
  <P>
  The Company paid interest in the net amount of $506
  during the nine months ended July 31, 2000 and $2,954
  during the twelve months ending October 31, 1999.  The
  Company has no income tax payments due and did not pay
  any income tax amounts during the period.
  <P>
  Non-cash transactions include stock based employee
  compensation as listed in the financial statements, the
  acquisition of the assets of Offshore Software
  Development Ltd. for stock in The Company and the
  retirement of note payables of the initial funding of
  The Company upon acquisition of Top-10 as a contribution
  to additional paid in capital .
  <P>
  The Company acquired assets from "Offshore" by the
  issuance of stock for a value of $630,000.  An impairment
  loss of $257,075 was recorded in October of 1999 to
  reflect an impairment of the intangible assets resulting
  from the acquired "Offshore" assets on March 30, 1999.
  The impairment resulted from the Company's revised
  forecast of the cash flows expected from intangible
  assets. Amortization expenses will drop by $8,583 per
  month.  This impairment loss was a non-cash loss.
  <P>
     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
  <P>
  Overview
  <P>
  Gross revenues refer to fees earned in the design,
  development, production, and marketing of technology to
  provide enhanced Internet marketing capabilities.  The
  Company earns revenue when it provides Internet services
  that improve an Internet site's ranking when searched on
  the leading Internet search engines.  Generally, the
  payment terms require payment to the Company at, or prior
  to, the time that the services are performed.
  Historically, the Company has not experienced substantial
  problems with unpaid accounts or had to refund
  significant monies.  Our premium Service and renewals of
  the same account for 97.5% of our business.
  <P>
  The Company has technological expertise in the preparing
  and submitting web site pages with "key search words" to
  the targeted search engines.  The web site page is
  configured so that when these key search words are
  entered into a search engine, the search will most likely
  hit on this web page.
  <P>
  Primarily as a result of the acquisition of Top-10
  Promotions, Inc. on May 28, 1998, the Company's revenue
  has been generated from the sale of services of Top-10
  Promotions, Inc. as of the date of acquisition.  The
  acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method
  of accounting and the results of operations of Top-10
  Promotions, Inc. from the date of purchase are included
  in the financial statements.  In the first year of
  business activity, the Company was building a sales team
  and experienced gross revenue of $54,032.  During the
  following year, the Company had $1,144,122 in gross
  revenue.
  <P>
  THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2000 TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
  JULY 31, 1999
  <P>
  Revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 were
  $421,248, virtually unchanged from the $421,322 of the
  prior year.  The company increased the selling price of
  its primary product, a web site visibility enhancement
  service from $1295 to $1495 on May 4, 2000.  The higher
  prices increased revenues approximately $26,000.  Unit
  sales of this product declined from 381 in last year's
  quarter to 276 this year.  Management attributes this
  decline primarily to a redesign of its program for
  generating sales leads.  Temporary difficulties with the
  redesign, since resolved, reduced the quantity and
  quality of sales leads provided to the company's sales
  force.  In addition, several of the company's sales
  persons either resigned or were terminated.
  <P>
  Cost of sales was $250,611 or 59.5% of revenues as
  compared to $265,215 or 62.9% of revenues in the prior
  year.  The increase as a percentage of sales is
  attributable primarily to temporarily reduced sales
  productivity resulting from the redesign of the company's
  lead generating program.
  <P>
  Depreciation and amortization expenses increased from
  $27,450 or 6.5% of revenues to $38,757 or 9.2% of
  revenues because of the depreciation and amortization on
  the purchase of software and computer equipment.
  <P>
  Legal and accounting expenses declined from $32,452 or
  7.7% of revenues to $13,015 or 3.1% of revenues.
  <P>
  Marketing expenses were $23,898 or 5.7% of revenues.
  There were no equivalent expenses in the prior year.
  These expenses were related to the global group
  purchasing program developed by the company.  All
  marketing and software expenses related to this program
  have been expensed as incurred.  The company is no longer
  actively pursuing this business opportunity.
  <P>
  Office and occupancy expenses increased from $38,440 or
  9.1% of revenues to $91,328 or 21.7% of revenues.  This
  was the result of increased expenses for office supplies,
  equipment rentals, and personnel additions.
  <P>
  Telephone expenses increased from $8,142 or 1.9% of
  revenues to $12,926 or 3.1% or revenues.  The increase in
  the percentage was the result of reduced sales
  efficiency.
  <P>
  The loss from operations increased from $50,240 or 11.9%
  of revenues to $92,576 or 22.0% of revenues.  Over 50% of
  this increased loss was attributable to expenses incurred
  in attempts to market the Global Group Purchasing
  Program.
  <P>
  NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2000 TO NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY
  31, 1999
  <P>
  Net revenues for the nine months ended July 31,2000 were
  $1,557,133, an increase of 78.2% from the $873,722 of the
  prior year.  The company increased the selling price of
  its primary product, a web site visibility enhancement
  service from $1,295 to $1,495 on May 4.  The May 4, 2000
  price increase added about $26,000 to revenues during the
  nine months and accounted for about 3.8% of the revenue
  gain.  The remainder of the revenue gain resulted
  primarily from an increase in the number of sales
  personnel and improved productivity of existing sales
  personnel.
  <P>
  Cost of goods sold increased 43.6% from $557,436 to
  $800,244.  The increase was primarily the result of
  higher volume.  As a percentage of revenues, cost of
  goods sold declined from 63.8% to 51.4%.
  <P>
  Depreciation and amortization increased from $60,213 to
  $113,410, an increase of 88.3%.  The increase was due
  primarily to additions to the company's depreciable
  property.  This expense increased from 6.9% of revenues
  to 7.3% in the current year.
  <P>
  Marketing expenses were $104,179 or 6.7% of revenues.
  There were no equivalent expenses in the prior year.
  These expenses were related to the global group
  purchasing program developed by the company.  All
  marketing and software expenses related to this program
  have been expensed as incurred.  The company is no longer
  actively pursuing this business opportunity.
  <P>
  Office and occupancy expenses increased from $61,112 or
  7.0%% of revenues to $287,784 or 18.5% of revenues.  This
  was the result of increased expenses for office supplies,
  equipment rentals, and personnel additions.
  <P>
  Officer's salaries declined from $1,228,427 or 147.4% or
  revenues to $210,200 or 13.5% of revenues.  Expenses in
  the prior year included $1,181,250 of non-cash expense
  related to 750,000 shares of restricted common stock
  issued to David Smith as a bonus.
  <P>
  Telephone expense increased from $16,300 or 1.9% of
  revenues to $54,796 or 3.5% or revenues.  This increase
  was attributable primarily to a higher volume of
  business, the addition of new accounting and call
  tracking services, and addition of additional line
  capacity to facilitate growth.
  <P>
  The loss from operations decreased to $126,904 or 8.1% of
  revenues from $1,251,098 or 143.2% of revenues.  The
  decline in the loss from operations was primarily due to
  the absence of $1,191,250 stock based compensation which
  was incurred in the prior year.
  <P>
  During the second quarter of fiscal 2000 the company
  realized a gain of $108,000 from the cash sale of 80% of
  the stock of its subsidiary, Global GPP Corporation to
  Internet Business International, an unaffiliated entity.
  This sale reduced the company's loss for the nine months
  ended July 2000 to $17,636 as compared to $1,253,368 in
  the prior year.
  <P>
  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
  <P>
  Cash flow from operating activities was $79,403 for the
  nine months ended July 31, 2000 as compared to $28,372 in
  the prior year.  Expenses during the period included
  $104,179 related to marketing the recently developed
  group purchasing program in Europe.  Expenses related to
  this program declined to $23,298 in the third quarter.
  All of the programming expenses related to this program
  have been expensed; management is currently de-emphasizing
  this program and expects that its impact of
  profitability will minimal in the next several quarters.
  Cash flow included $108,000 from the sale of an 80%
  interest in the company's Global GPP subsidiary.  Absent
  these two items, cash flow from operating activities
  would have been $84,224.
  <P>
  Cash Flows from Investing Activities
  <P>
  The company made loans of $22,932 to Edwin Foster, Jr.and
  purchased $90,401 of equipment during the period.  The
  equipment was primarily computer workstations, a back up
  power generator, telephone equipment, and Internet
  hosting equipment.
  <P>
  Cash Flow Provided from Financing Activities
  <P>
  Cash flows from financing activities decreased from
  $272,542 of cash inflow in the prior year to $7,329 of
  cash out flow.  The cash inflow in the prior year was
  primarily due to the issuance of stock for cash.  The
  cash outflow in the current year was due to the repayment
  of loans.
  <P>
  Outlook
  <P>
  The company moved into its present facilities in May,
  1999.  These facilities do not have sufficient room to
  accommodate the planned expansion of the company's sales
  force.  The company has agreed to lease a facility with
  14500 square feet of floor space as compared to
  3000square feet at its present facility.  The new
  facility is being reconfigured to meet our requirements
  and we expect to occupy it in late September or in
  October.  We believe that this facility will provide room
  to eventually increase our present work force from thirty
  to approximately one hundred.  Monthly rental will be
  approximately $6000.00 as compared to $2550.00 at our
  present facility.  We are attempting to sublease our
  present facility.
  <P>
  During the next six months we expect to spend about
  $225,000.00 for moving expenses, wiring, flexible work
  partitions, and additional furniture and computer
  equipment at the new site.  We expect to fund this
  expenditure from current working capital; funds generated
  from operations, and have applied for a SBA-guaranteed
  bank loan in the amount of $290,000.00.
  <P>
  The company's general method of operation calls for cash
  payments in advance of performing web site visibility
  enhancement services.  As a result, we have only minimal
  inventories and receivables.  This facilitates financing
  growth.   We expect growth to result primarily from
  additions to our sales force.  Since it usually takes
  three to six months for new additions to the sales force
  generate sufficient sales volume to cover the cost of
  their base wage, insurance, related expenses, the rate of
  sales force expansion can significantly impact our cash
  requirements.  We currently plan to increase our sales
  force from ten to approximately sixteen by March 31, 2001
  and twenty-four by September 30, 2001. We believe
  internally generated cash flow, possibly supplemented by
  the afore-mentioned bank loan, will be adequate to
  finance growth at this rate.  If the SBA-guaranteed bank
  loan is not completed, and if no other source of
  financing is available, the rate of growth in the sales
  force will be scaled down commensurate with our cash flow
  generation.
