Most virtual offices do not offer physical office space. Since they are "virtual", business owners use them to primarily receive mail and provide a commercial business address for letterhead, business card, website and vendor registration purposes. If you need actual office space, a virtual office is not your best choice. A virtual office service usually offers a business mailing address and phone service and conveys a very professional image.
