Default Internet Marketing In Africa

Most Internet marketers don't know that a huge market for Online Business is gradually unfolding in Africa. What are the limitations or obstacles to entering the African markets (such as Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, Egypt, Tunisia, Kenya, etc)?

The main problem is one that's plagued Africa for decades, corrupt, kleptocratic, authoritarian governments that deny citizens basic political and economic freedoms.

The biggest challenge though it may seem obvious is sufficient access to the internet to allow an interested person learn enough about internet marketing.In the developed world access to the internet is taken for granted, in Africa this is just being implemented.
The market potential is definitely huge just think about making payment systems flexible most potential buyers still use old ways like western union.
Just needs creative thinking to get things going

The biggest challenge is buyers. The average salary in most of those countries is a pittance. How can you make money out of that?

It's no accident that most marketers make money mainly out of US citizens. That won't continue indefinitely though. I have eyes on China.

As a South African I can tell you that one of the limitations are not being able to get a Paypal account where I can be paid.

We are allowed Paypal accounts, but not allowed to receive money - only spend money.
