Hi,
Does anyone know any links/info on how to get the internet usage for town & cities in the UK? I am putting profiles together to find out which areas would be 'worth' advertising in for a E-commerce company and need to know what the activity for purchasing goods over the internet is like by regions to quite a fine detail. I am having trouble find anyone who can provide this information!
Thanks, Miss Lewis.

Yes,
You should contact British Telecom: http://www.bt.com/index.jsp

They have the monoply over the communications industry in the UK just as Ma Bell used to have here in the States. I lived there for three years and I think I owed them money before I left so don't tell them I sent you-lol
There are other smaller providers:
