E-commerce

In today’s world, Ecommerce is revolutionizing how we shop online. Companies such as buy.com have to think of ways on how to connect with online consumers in order to have a successful, loyal consumer. As I searched online for a site that used distinctive techniques that would attract and maintain active consumers, I came across Buy.com.




Buy.com is a company that sells a wide range of products to consumers every day. So how and why is Buy.com differentiating itself from the competition? As I looked over their page I noticed that this company had a theme that related to consumers. I noticed that their design (colors, overlay, etc) was very eco friendly. It also had a neat design and the page didn’t attack the consumer with 29482847 products that are jumping out of the screen. The page is subdivided into sections and ahs a quick search bar at the top. I noticed that buy.com had a deal of the day special. This is something that I thought it was very clever. Consumer now a days are looking for deals and having a special deal of the day each day makes consumers wonder what today’s special is. Furthermore,  I saw that Buy.com offered FREE SHIPPING in a lot of products.

After looking at this successful ecommerce business I realized that in order to have a successful eBusiness, one must differentiate itself from the competition. You must be user friendly and have a strong connection with you clientele.

 A strong business plan should always be implemented and you should always try to offer as many products/services as possible.

Successful businesses come from planning and experience! 

Treat your consumers with respect and they will always be loyal to your site.

  1. I think also a main key for online businesses are being user friendly. The easiness of navigation for a web site is very important so they can create the right environment for consumers to buy their products and come back to do business with them.
