World Total Internet Users Boom; Online Sales Surpass 36.6 Billion the First Half of 2005 with the Help of Affiliates
(PRWEB) August 15, 2005
According to recent reporting by World Internet Stats (http://www.internetworldstats.com), total world internet users has increased 160% from 2000-2005 with 938,710,929 internet users. North America carves out 23.8 % of the total online population with 223,392,807 active internet users.
US ecommerce retail sales have grown at an amazing rate of over 23% annually. Forrester Research (http://www.forrester.com) projects online sales upward of 230 billion dollars by 2008.
Despite an ever fluctuating economic climate, online consumers and affiliates have pushed ecommerce forward. The latest online sales statistics indicate a 25.2% increase across the board for the first half of 2005 over the same period during 2004 (reports courtesy of MediaBuyerPlanner and MarketingVox). These reports also cite online sales have reached .6 Billion in 1H05 as compared to last year?s .3 Billion during 1H04 (according to ComScore data).
DoubleClick Inc.?s (http://www.doubleclick.com) third annual Touchpoints survey identifies individual internet marketing channels such as web ads, search engines, e-mail programs, and web sites outrank salespeople, word of mouth, in-store promotions and TV ads in select product categories. This is refreshing news within the affiliate marketing community as it indicates internet users are growing exceedingly more comfortable purchasing products and services online.
The affiliate marketing concept has become the poster child of internet marketing and is now a mainstay within the Ecommerce world. Many progressive Fortune 500 companies such as Verizon, Dell, and Apple Computer have embraced the affiliate marketing system to significantly increase their online sales and ROI.
So how are trend setting affiliate marketers boosting ecommerce sales? Liz Gazer, the affiliate program manager at http://www.Rugman.com, states ??The real affiliate leaders are melding the best of both worlds to produce the one thing most-preached-about in successful affiliate marketing today: that beautiful thing we marketers so lovingly refer to as the ?added-value?.??
Liz goes on to state, ??Added value is anything of worth and importance to your shoppers, and anything that makes your site offering trustworthy enough for consumers to want to take your advice on where to spend their cash. Why? Because advice is hot!??
Properly managed affiliate programs have unquestionably developed into one of the most powerful ecommerce business modules available today. With the exponential growth rate of internet users and affiliate marketers powering the Ecommerce machine, online sales of 0+ billion dollars by 2008 is not at all unreasonable.
