e-Commerce Application Development (Online + offline)


E-Commerce is one of the most important facets of the Internet today ‘e-commerce or eCommerce, consists of the buying and selling of products or services over electronic systems such as the Internet and other computer networks.’

E-commerce can be broadly classified into three categories: business to business (B2B), business to consumer (B2C) and consumer to consumer (C2C). The Internet also encompasses a wider spectrum of potential commercial activities and information exchanges. For instance, it offers firms, individuals and governments an electronic infrastructure, which enables the creation of virtual auction markets for goods and services.

It can be seen as part of e-business – which ‘may be defined as the utilization of information and communication technologies (ICT) in support of all the activities of business.’

E-Commerce is a massive growth area, were colossal sums of money are being made and spent every day. This is largely to do with the hype of the Internet and on-line shopping. The Internet is growing exponentially, and will continue to grow for some time to come. This, coupled with good advertising, can provide a solid foundation from which to launch a stake in the Internet and e-commerce boom.

E-commerce is big business. The fact that people want it is probably the biggest lure for companies to jump onto the bandwagon, but there are other factors, making e-commerce a good sense solution.

Products and structures of E-commerce cover its three categories: Consumer-oriented commerce, business-to-business commerce, and intra-organizational business. All three are experiencing vigorous developments, albeit with differing economic outcomes at this time.
