We have a limited operating history, which may make it difficult for investors to evaluate our business.

 

We began offering products and services under the www.sohu.com website in February 1998. Accordingly, we have a limited operating history upon which investors can evaluate our business. In addition, our senior management and employees have worked together at our company for only a relatively short period of time. As an early stage company in the new and rapidly evolving PRC Internet market, we face numerous risks and uncertainties. Some of these risks relate to our ability to:

 

    increase the revenues derived from our fee-based services and products we offered online;

 

    build our wireless, online game and e-commerce businesses successfully;

    continue to attract a larger audience to our portal by expanding the type and technical sophistication of the content and services we offer;

 

    maintain our current, and develop new, strategic relationships to increase our revenue streams as well as product and service offerings; and

 

    attract and retain qualified personnel.
