Good Year for Online Retailers Expected

Story:

Those of you who sell online should expect an increase in spending by your customers this year. According to research from eMarketer and Jupiter Research, sales should increase over 2002.

Although 2002 was, overall, a good year for online retailers, some weak numbers were noted. The number of people who bought online decreased (even though the number of purchases was greater).

Analysis:

A survey showing that about 72 percent of those surveyed indicated that they anticipated spending more online this year. This good news not only for those companies that sell directly to consumers, but to companies that service retailers.
