In 2006, AOL shifted its strategy to build on these strengths, making its popular e-mail and AOL software, along with other services, available free to anyone with an Internet connection. AOL continues to move forward on this strategy in 2007, with a focus on growing the size of its online audience, increasing the engagement of its users and improving its ability to monetize its Web audience.
