The vast majority of respondents (88 percent) also recognize an increase in sales in the first three months of the year, with more than half (65.8 percent) saying that growth was over 50 percent.
The level of investment in the websites analyzed remained constant at 40 percent of the websites analyzed and increased by 51.4 percent. Expectations for the evolution of the business for the rest of the year are optimistic for about half of the respondents.
