Forester Research reports online retail sales this holiday season will reach $27 billion in the United States. Jupiter Research predict an even better online Holiday shopping season at $32 billion. Ecommerce is here to stay and it is time to tap into the 114 million users that will buy online this holiday season.

Forester research states that three out of four Christmas shoppers said they plan to shop for holiday gifts online and 75 percent of shoppers said they are likely to purchase gifts online from small businesses. The online shopping peak is expected to fall on December 15th this year. So you still have time to start marketing online and be found by these holiday shoppers.

There are numerous ways for shoppers to shop online and a number of different types of shoppers. Some shoppers might use the search engines ( ex. Yahoo & Google), others may use a price comparison site (ex. shopping.com & Pricegrabber.com) and others may go to a market place (ex. Ebay & Amazon). Are you showing up in these locations so Holiday Shoppers can find the services and goods you offer? This year service gifts are expected to rise with the use of gift certificates and gift cards. Are you offering these on your website?
