Good news for online retail

[Cal]

Some good news today for online retail.

THE pace of online retail sales growth soared in January as a pick-up in consumer confidence defied the traditional post-Christmas lull in spending.

National Australia Bank's latest Online Retail Sales Index showed online sales grew to $13 billion over the 12 months to the end of January, up 27 per cent at a time when overall retail sales grew by just 0.4 per cent.
