Online Fashion Sales in the UK Over £1bn?

According to the BBC in the article ‘Online fashion sales ‘top £1bn‘ sales of fashion and shoes on-line are booming! It also says that New Look are looking to move some sales on-line. I would certainlysubscribe as I hate the queues in EVERY New Look store I have ever been too and half the time the tags are missing. The UK is Europe’s biggest on-line shopper so the fashion industry should boom on-line this year. I do hope so as so much is being pushed into advertising on ‘community sites’ such as Myspace. Advertisers are targeting the web ready 16-30 year olds who have fully subscribed to the new ‘Web 2.0′ social sites wave.

Bah. I have been shopping on-line since 1999…..and I wish I knew what I knew now as I would have hit this boom in a different way and started my blog then to get some years behind it. Even though it would have just been a plain website then. I am proud to say I managed to get web ready in May 2000, with a little site - oh how basic it was! Geoshitties to start with! I still have that geocities site….somewhere!
