ONE POUND IN EVERY TEN NOW SPENT ONLINE

A survey of current spending trends has revealed a staggering £1 out of every £10 spent in the UK, is now being spent through the internet and this year, experts are predicting over £30billion will be channelled through the web.

The news that consumers are now preferring the convenience of buying their goods online, rather than the high street comes as no surprise, however the rate at which this figure is increasing is remarkable.

Last year, just over £8billion was spent in this country but we are now looking at the average spend per person in the UK to be in excess of £1,000 for the first time.

This information highlights the need to ensure that you have fully evaluated the opportunities that exist for your company to sell their products and services online.

When it comes to selling online, Uptonaway Media can provide you with everything from an affordable, entry level solution, based on retailers paying a percentage of their revenue to a company to cover the cost of securely accepting payment through the internet (see for example, the Inner Peace Shop) through to a fully functional e-commerce solution (see for example, Luton Town's club shop).
