SprintEcommerce Widens it's Bandwidth in Time for Christmas

Lately there have been conflicting reports on the state of ecommerce – some claim it's in good health while others say it's on the wane. Speaking for ourselves, we've seen a massive increase in the amount of business we've helped our ecommerce clients generate. As a result, we've had to increase our bandwidth by three times as much in order to help them cope with the demand.

This bodes well for the upcoming Christmas period, and hopefully the ecommerce sector at large will see an increased stability in its sales. Cyber Monday, the on-line equivalent of the Thanksgiving & Black Friday spending spree in the US is regarded by many as a good indicator of how businesses will fare for the rest of the year, and latest reports from Nielson Online have it that Cyber Monday saw a 10% increase in traffic to ecommerce sites across the web.

Over the past two months we've been updating this blog with regular news and tips on ecommerce and how to get the most out of it. Now's the time to put all that information together if you haven't done so already: ecommerce is growing quickly as a sales channel, accounting for one in every £10 spent in the UK economy, and we expect it to make an even bigger impact for our clients before the year is out.
