How is E-Commerce Doing Now?

A while ago, in my post “E-Commerce is doing well” I mentioned about the state of e-commerce. I encouraged you to start selling online because I suggested that online retail was going to grow even more. Now, check out this article, “Get Online: E-commerce Explodes While Store Retail Slowly Rebuilds”. Thank you Carol for helping me prove my point. Please look at the numbers she has found and listen to what she has to say at the end of her article.

Selling online is a great opportunity for small businesses and the playing field is wide open. The key is to find the right tools for your online storefront, email marketing, social networking and your web presence as a whole. Here is something that may help you with this. The BigCommerce $35,000 Ecommerce Makeover Contest. It is a shot at getting the right tools for upgrading your online store and promoting your e-commerce business. If you win the big prize, it will be amazing. If you don’t win, you still may enjoy the publicity you get or at least you will have a promotional video that you can use to market your online business.

Good Luck!
