This year, Australia ecommerce stores are facing a shifting digital landscape.
Typically, Instagram accounts in this sector recorded a weekly growth of 209.2 followers, with an average engagement rate of 2.06% — evidence that consumer interest stays robust on social media.
However, organic search performance decreased, with traffic falling by -30.9% throughout the sector. This reveals increased competition or reduced search visibility, compelling SEO agencies to devise new methods of bringing in Organic Traffic, such as ranking on AI models.
When it comes to paid channels, approximately 4.6% of stores have launched Meta ads at least once, and 4.6% have launched Meta ads in 2025. Paid search is still underutilized, with only 16.5% of stores leveraging it—providing space for forward-thinking businesses to exploit less competitive ad space.

Australia's e-commerce landscape in 2025 has seen notable trends in paid media, especially in Google Ads, with a +29.1% increase in paid traffic, showcasing significant growth. Despite this, the spend on Google Ads by Australian stores, at 220.1, remains well below the global average of 322.46, indicating a more cost-effective strategy compared to global competitors.
