Will the Weak US Economy Affect Online Shopping?
Update: We’ve had a stupid amount of traffic on this post due to the graph to the left. This graph is VERY interesting as it shows the United State economy during different administrations in the White House. Notice Bill Clinton’s administration and then George W. Bushes Presidency. Be careful who you vote for friends.
Now it’s time to go back to the post……….
Good question. The other good question is, “Will the weak economy slow down online shopping traffic“. Our predictions are as follows…
- Question: Will the weak economy slow down online shopping sales. Answer: Yes
- Question: Will the weak economy slow down online shopping traffic. Answer: No
Zazbot.com Predicts Online Shopping Sales Decrease
As paychecks stop coming in the mail for unfortunate employees who get their pink, yellow, or blue layoff slips from their employers, the availability of spendable money (disposable income) will become scarce. Furthermore, as consumers and shoppers begun “sucking it up” in an effort to brace for harder times, they’ll stop spending and start saving. This slows down online sales and general sales alike.
So Zazbot.com’s editors believe there will be a slow-down in online sales. Some vectors, products, and shopping categories may jump in sales, and some products will increase in movement. Online shoppers will be surfing the Internet for the lowest possible prices, and the highest standard of quality. This brings us to the next question and Zazbot prediction.
Zazbot.com Predicts Online Shopping Traffic Will Increase
We predict online shopping traffic will increase dramatically as shoppers will be looking high and low on the Internet to find the best deals possible. This will increase the online advertising traffic and the go-between web sites may see and increase traffic and advertising ROI.
As well, webmasters and web based companies who claim to provide financing will see more profits. We’re seeing this traffic grow dramatically on some of our partner sites, as United States and Canadian citizens try to procure cash for their shopping expenses.
Is The United States Economy Rebound
At Zazbot.com we don’t believe that the United States economy is really in as much peril as some would suggest. Yes, there are job loses, and Wall-street is a little unstable, but we would call it “jitters”. We’re seeing tech acquisitions such as MSN trying to buy Yahoo! for 44 billion dollars.
We believe that there will be a slight slow-down in the economy for 12-16 months, and then it will rebound dramatically. Why? Because most of the economy predictors show strong growth in many market sectors, and the 2008 election is finally here.
The Democrats are likely to win by quite a margin, and there is feeling of great hope sweeping the world. Getting quite bias here, but George Bush is the worst President in the history of the USA. His legacy will be very sad. Almost feel sorry for the guy, if he hadn’t caused so much suffering at home and abroad. Click this economy graph that shows the US economy ups and downs during Presidencies in the last 40 years.
In some ways the online shopping markets may be impervious to the ups and downs in the US economy. These are very different times we’re in as far as media and technology goes. Very much different compared to the last time we has a long term droop in the economy.
In the mean time friends, your humble narrator suggests looking after the pennies and the dollars will look after themselves.
