Online Business Booming This Holiday Season

Is it a sign of an improving saving or just better marketing? There are plenty of theories, but one apparent fact, online retailers are booming this holiday period compared to previous year. Online business is up by a whopping twelve percent over the holiday season in 2009.

The big promotion days saw some of the biggest growth. Cyber Monday was up 16%, and December 17th, which retailers this current year dubbed, Free Shipping Day," saw a 61% jump compared to that day in December a year ago.

This past week saw even more growth, about 14% compared to previous year. The people lugging the boxes are noticing.
