E-commerce, shopping carts and online stores... what does it all mean? Well, ecommerce refers to the ability of your customers to browse, select and pay for your products online without any human intervention. The difference between a normal website and a static website is the difference between a brochure or window display and a sales assistant - the first advertises and informs, and the second is able to complete the purchasing transaction and put money in your till!

E-commerce... what does it mean to my business? The opening hours of 9am to 5pm are long gone... and if you only trade during these hours you can be sure that your existing and would-be customers will be giving money hand-over-fist to your competitors in the evenings and on the weekends too! Basically, it means that you are losing business if you do not offer the facility to your customers to shop online. Also, who you competitor is is changing, it's no longer that supplier or shop in the next town, its now any supplier / shop that sells similar items to you online no matter where they are located! The internet knows no boundaries. E-commerce represents an opportunity for you to boost your business, expand your customer base and steal a march on your competitors!
