Recession proof business : E-Commerce

In this article I will explain how you can plan and create an online business about any subject. 

According to a survey conducted by Forrester Research for the National Retail Federation’s Shop.org, e-commerce is ‘better suited to withstand economic downturn’. So, what can this be attributed to? It could be because the UK internet population continues to grow with 70% of the total population currently being able to access the World Wide Web. It could be that advances in security, design and usability of websites ensures that a typical e-commerce browsing experiencing is a whole lot easier, friendlier and safer, encouraging a larger number of the public to purchase. It could be that, more people are staying at home, and impulse buying from the comfort of your sofa is very easy (a little too easy in the case of iTunes).

The outlook remains bright for the remainder of 2009, and historically businesses that survive such downturns thrive when end is finally reached.
