The big fact
重要事实
The number of women-owned microbusinesses has continued to increase in both the U.S. and U.K. according to the GoDaddy Venture Forward U.S. National Survey conducted in August 2023 (n=3,525). As a result, the gender gap narrowed. More than half (51%) of microbusiness owners in the U.S. are women, increasing by 10% in the last two years, and up 25% relative to where it started in 2019. And 42% of microbusiness owners in the U.K. are women, up 33% in the last two years.

The research
这项研究
GoDaddy's Venture Forward research initiative analyzes more than 20 million online businesses with a digital presence (measured by a unique domain and an active website). Most of these businesses employ fewer than ten people, categorizing each as a microbusiness. While these microbusinesses may be small, their impact on economies is outsized even though they are often too informal or too new to show up in traditional government statistics.
GoDaddy 的 Venture Forward 研究计划分析了超过2000万家具有数字化存在的在线企业（以独特的域名和活跃的网站来衡量）。这些企业中的大多数雇员少于十人，每家企业都归类为微型企业。尽管这些微型企业规模可能很小，但它们对经济的影响是巨大的，尽管它们往往过于非正式或太新，无法出现在传统的政府统计数据中。
Since 2018, Venture Forward surveyed more than 36,000 small business owners with a digital presence, making it the source for microbusiness data and insights.
自2018年以来，Venture Forward对36,000多名拥有数字业务的小企业主进行了调查，使其成为微型企业数据和见解的来源。
