2006 looks like being the year that ecommerce becomes mainstream.
Xmas 2005 saw record numbers of consumers turning to the web for their festive shopping. For 2005 as a whole, it was calculated that spending over the internet in the UK totaled £19.2bn, 32% more than 2004 according to BBC News. Forecasts are that e-commerce will grow by 36% in 2006, with sales worth £26bn.
Of course, ecommerce covers more than B2C online shopping. Business-to-Business (B2B) is growing rapidly too. Not only goods, but services are now being sold and exchanged across the internet, while the cost savings represented by online transactions are alluring too.
