Ecommerce, or Electric Commerce, is one of the most important aspects of
the internet to emerge. It allows people to exchange goods and services immediately and with no barriers of
time or distance. Any time of the day or night, you can go online and buy almost
anything you want.
However, the road to creating a successful online store can be a difficult and confusing
one if you are unaware of the concepts and principles behind eCommerce. The trick to
entering this market smoothly is to find out what you need to do before you have to do
it. This page is designed to help you do just that. Here, you will find a step-by-step
guide to the process of becoming eCommerce enabled, a listing of all the known Online
Transaction Providers, and a condensed comparison of the prices and services they offer,
as well as many more resources.
If you are a layperson, please read the Tutorial first. It will provide the basic understanding
necessary to get you started, and allow you to make a better decision about which company
to go with.
If you have more advanced knowledge of eCommerce technology, you will probably find the
Directory and Ratings sections the most useful.
The Resources section is a comprehensive compilation of web sites that can help you
effectively construct and market your site.
