Its string of about 30 Web sites focuses on a variety of industries (including electronics and utilities) and features buyer's guides, news, discussion forums, career centers, and auctions. Among its fastest-growing Web sites are Water Online, which focuses on the water and wastewater industry and boasts more than 80,000 visits each month; and Chemical Online, a Web site dedicated to the chemical processing industry.
