FACTS:

I like facts because they cannot be disputed.  Therefore, when it comes to an opportunity to earn money blogging I'll let the facts speak for themselves to demonstrate that this blogging thing truly is legitimate.

Anyone who wants to earn money blogging must engage in what is known as e-commerce.  E-commerce consists of the buying and selling of products or services over electronic systems such as the Internet and other computer networks.  As such, if one is considering an e-commerce business, (i.e., marketing and selling products from a blog) then the status of  the current e-commerce market is especially relevant.  After all, nobody can expect to earn money in a dried-up or dwindling market, and to make any business investment in such a market would be foolish!  So lets look at the most recent e-commerce market facts.

In its May 15, 2009 report, the Census Bureau of the U.S. Department of Commerce announced  that the estimate of U.S. retail e-commerce sales for the first quarter of 2009 was $31.7 billion, an increase of 0.7 percent (±1.1%)* from the fourth quarter of 2008.  Further, in its August 17, 2009 report the estimate of U.S. retail e-commerce sales for the second quarter of 2009 was $32.4 billion, an increase of 2.2 percent (±1.2%) from the first quarter of 2009.

Clearly, there is a growing trend in the buying and selling of products or services over electronic systems such as the internet and other computer networks.  Therefore, joining  this market would be a sound business investment so you will know where to earn money online.
