E-Commerce Survey

December 2005

The government’s National Statistics Office has released the findings of its 2004 e-commerce survey. Internet sales rose to £71.1 billion, an impressive 81% increase over 2003.

However behind this impressive headline figure is the rather less impressive news that only a third of businesses had a website in 2004 and only 6.7% of businesses sold over the internet in 2004.
