E-commerce
It's not to be ignored that in 2005 online sales hit £8.2 billion, only just behind department store sales of £9.4 billion, reports Verdict.
Due to this, E-commerce or Electronic Commerce websites have become less of an alternative means of trading to more of a necessity for retailers. As more of the population has access to the internet at home, online shopping has become a modern way of life. Last year saw as many purchases coming from the over 55's as the under 24's age groups, proving the diversity of online customers.
