In the era of "Internet Plus", the Internet has been integrated into all aspects of the lives of members of the society, which has a new impact on increasing women's wages and reducing the gender pay gap. This paper is based on the data of CGSS2021 to explore the impact of Internet use on increasing the wage income of female labour groups. Firstly, by introducing the variables of "using the Internet as the main information channel" and "frequency of Internet use", it is found that both of them have a significant positive impact on women's wage income. Secondly, this paper introduces the variable of women's leisure Internet use and divides it into three dimensions, namely, social, study and entertainment, and creates interaction terms for heterogeneity analysis. It is found that leisure Internet use for study and social purposes significantly increases women's wage income.
