October 16, 2006. When ShopFactory was released first in 1996 as the world's first Do-it-Yourself e-commerce software solution for non programmers, customers in ShopFactory shops could be counted by the dozens. Few were trying to sell online back then — and it seemed even fewer were trying to buy online.

Things have changed dramatically since then.  Today the Internet has taken over — and many would prefer to lose their TV rather than their Internet access.

e-Commerce has exploded — and online customers are no longer a rarity.

On the contrary.

ShopFactory shops have just cracked the 100 Million customer mark per month. This means a staggering 1.2 Billion customers visit shops created with ShopFactory ever year.

And this number is continuing to grow.

“We were always hoping things would go big,” says Michael Veith, one of the founders of 3D3.COM, makers of ShopFactory. “But these numbers are way beyond anything we had ever expected.”

3D3.COM has developed steadily since its inception, and is one of the few e-commerce solution providers who have been around from the very beginning. Its flagship product ShopFactory has become one of the most popular shop building tools around the world.
