„Roughly 10 percent of the world’s population – more than 627 million people – has shopped online at least once, the research firm ACNielsen determined in a study to be released Wednesday.“

Kuivõrd üks äriplaanidest millega töötan on seotud just online-ostjate hulga ja selle tõusuga siis on see meile hea uudis. Eriti heaks teeb selle uudise asjaolu, et vastavalt uuringule on USA alles 11. kohal maailmas online-ostude arvu poolest per Interneti kasutaja. Esimest kolme kohta hõivavad Saksamaa, Austria ja UK – täpselt meie target turud.
Ajee… 🙂

Teine uudis on see, et paljuräägitult suurima raha teenija Internetis – porno – tegelikult seda pole.

„Pornography has often been cited as one of the most successful online businesses, but Bhawani Singh, managing director of consumer research at ACNielsen Europe said that his company had decided not to survey on the topic since people would probably not answer honestly.„We also think online consumers spend more time looking at pornography than buying it,“ Singh said. „The amount of money spent on books and DVDs is far, far bigger than anything else.“„

Vot nii.
