This article focuses on the holiday Internet sales of past, present, and future. It is expected that holiday sales are going to skyrocket this year. It is evident by looking at the stock prices of leaders in the e-commerce industry whose prices have doubled since this time last year. They expect the average purchase price for items to be in excess of $100.

It was surprising to see the amount of grow the purchasing on the Internet has seen. It has been on a pace that has exceeded a lot of expectation for it at this point. It is predicted that the companies who are prepared the best as far as having the stock and most maneuverable sites will reap all the benefit the rest will suffer.

I agree that Internet sales are on the rise and the companies that are prepared to handle the site hits will be the front runners of e-commerce for a long time. This ability to handle users request will build a good repore with the customers and make them want to return when the need arises.

The rise of e-commerce will encompass a lot of issues. I think the biggest will be security, speed at which sites load, transfer rates, bandwidth, ect? All of these are basic communication issues.
