Forrester Research estimates that holiday sales made online will rise 42%, to $12.2 billion. With better-than-projected revenues for online stores in the first three quarters of the year, the market-research outfit figures that online sales for the year will top its original forecast of $96 billion, coming in above $100 billion.

Fits well with other reports saying higher % of orders are made online.

Nice find lazerzubb.

Confidence in online retailing is on the increase, which can only be a good thing, to all people concerned.

This is excellent news and it boosts the demand for SEM-services from Scandinavian companies. We see the same tendency here in our small pond in Norway. This developent makes me very optimistic for the years to come. ;)

yep good for e-businesses all around.

By 2007, 39% of computers and software accessories will be sold online

we are seeing a good upturn from last year.
