    It will. It has to.

    May be not very significantly, but it will have an impact.

    Job Cutting = lesser money to spend = lesser income for some people online.

    If your selling online when peoples pockets get pinched your sales will drop same as in retail shops.

    Basically it will affect consumer spending not only retail but online as well. Definitely it will creep in.

    There's definately going to be a drop in discretionary spending. But also keep in mind there will still be buyers for goods out there people some things people just don't want to to do without. And as in everything else economic, these things move in cycles so as bad as it gets now we should see a period of prosperity again in the future.

    It will most definitely, since the internet has connections to real world markets and economic affairs.

    In my opinion it should not have a significant effect on online business like ours. But it will certainly have some impact.
