Advantages and Disadvantages of E-commerce website

 ___________   Advantages And Disadvantages Of E-commerce Website______________________

     Hello, this blog is going to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of an e-commerce website. I hope that you can learn something from it,                                                             



  Introduction:

There has been a noticeable impact in today's society by using E-commerce in our daily lives. It has significant advantages for both the individual and the community. Whilst E-commerce has been demonstrating profitable growth, questions arise regarding its efficacy. Therefore, being mindful of these obstacles will help you improve.


Advantages:

For example, you have access to it all the time. Because of this, e-commerce is considered time-saving. As well as targeting the correct crowd to help promote the business. Also, owning an e-commerce website is better since you do not have to worry about picking the location for your company. That is why it is easy to run a business using e-commerce. (Taher, G., 2021.)


An E-commerce website can allow people with low income to shop comfortably. It can assist in increasing the reach and richness of the company. Also, e-commerce can help decrease traffic as people can shop at home. Furthermore, with that, it can help reduce air pollution. Besides, some websites sell products at lower prices. Adding to that, it allows customers to compare prices for an item. Besides, it is simpler to browse and shop on the website than to visit the store and not find what you want. Also, some people are too anxious to ask for help from the assistants. (Manzoor, A., 2010)


E-commerce can benefit companies as they can spend less on maintenance and repair. Additionally, it can help customers and businesses decrease the money and time spent on paying bills, transferring accounts, and trading stocks. (Goel, R., 2007)


Disadvantages:

Nowadays, many individuals would rather browse for products online than real life. Because of this, customers are incapable of checking the product. That means that some customers might not seem satisfied with result and will be disappointed with it.(Taher, G., 2021.)

 Not only that but perhaps there could be a hold-up on the packages. That being said, it should be kept in mind that not many people have the patience to wait for a long time.(Taher, G., 2021.)

 Moreover, credit card fraud is a significant problem in the online world. Although it has consequences, criminals choose to ignore it and scam people. However, both the consumer and the company can fall victim to this.(Taher, G., 2021.)

Furthermore, the absence of personal contact could be considered the most negative point that affects us. Because of that, many people might develop social anxiety and prefer to stay at home all the time. (Taher, G., 2021.)



In addition to that, many corporations have faced difficulties in hiring staff workers with wanted experience in the technology field. On top of that, it is still uncertain about the laws revolving around e-commerce in terms of taxation. (Manzoor, A., 2010.)


Conclusion:

In conclusion, e-commerce has eased our daily life, but it still should not be a replacement for going to the store and interacting with workers.

Invention of WWW and E-commerce

Image
  Invention of WWW and E-commerc e Tim Berners-Lee, 41, is the person who invented the World Wide Web. Which means he is the creator of WWW. Tim Berners-Lee has stated that he developed some software to keep track of his “memory” since he said he is neither good at names nor faces. So he created it as a “memory substitute”. For this reason, technology has advanced increasingly. He is the reason that we can look at a photo online and click on it to find out the photographer’s name. ( Wright, R., 1997) Michael Aldrich is the person who created e-commerce. Moreover, 1995 was the year when e-commerce started growing. Furthermore, the internet and the web were the main factors that helped e-commerce grow ( Laudon and Traver., 2013).  Even though e-commerce has become more popular over the last decade, it has been around for over 30 years. Furthermore, the  idea of e-commerce is associated with notions of the internet economy and digital economy. In addition, all these concepts...

Analyse and compare different examples of product pages

Image
Introduction: In this blog I will be analysing and comparing different product pages from websites. I have also chosen websites that sell clothes since I am creating a similar website.    White Fox boutique: This product page is quite simple. Both the description and image are available and in good quality. And the description is short and simple. Also, you can easily navigate your way through the pages. Furthermore, this website has different categories. In addition, you can see the prices of the products and the different colours that are available. Overall, this is a good product page and very straightforward. ZARA: Although Zara's homepage appears attractive, many people complained that shopping and browsing the website were difficult. First of all, the size of the description is small. Furthermore, it can be a bit challenging to find what you are looking for. Also, it seems to appear that they are cramming several product images in one row. On the other hand, the colours ...

Essentials features of an e-commerce website

Image
                    What features should I use for my website?                  _______________________________________________________ The sources that I have used to write this blog all agreed that there are some points that developers must do in order to get a number of satisfied customers. For instance , many e-commerce website creators spend an amount of time in these unnecessary and irrelevant features. These include, use of frames , consistency , cohesion , and amount of advertisement   ( Udo, G.J. and Marquis, G.P., 2002.   42 (2), pp.10-16.) .  These four elements might not satisfy customers and have a rather negative affect on your website.  On the other hand, according to   Udo, Godwin J., and Gerald P. Marquis   focusing your attention on the download time can have a noticeable increase in your ranking. It can also be considered the most beneficial an...
