As can be seen from the above bar chart, annual global e-commerce turnover has increased rapidly during the fifteen-year period. In 1997, it was 2 billion dollars, and then it reached 90 billion dollars in 2005. In 2011, it jumped dramatically to 300 billion dollars, 150 times that of 1997.

Why is e-commerce booming nowadays? Several factors may contribute to this phenomenon. Above all, the popularity of computers and Internet access has laid the foundations for the development of e-commerce. What is more, as Internet technologies are becoming increasingly mature and relevant laws and regulations are improved, people who were at first skeptical about e-commerce now become convinced that doing business online is safe and reliable. Last but not least, e-commerce is the fastest way so far to make transactions across vast distances. That is why e-commerce is preferable to traditional bricks and mortar commerce for some people.

The e-commerce boom undoubtedly contributes to the prosperity of the world economy. Accordingly, let us get prepared to embrace the irreversible trend.
