What Is E-Commerce?

It used to be the case that businesses reach only extended as far as their physical presence. Without an office or shop front or, at the very least, some print advertising, trade simply did not take place. The internet opened up an entirely new way of trading. Customers could browse a retailer's entire catalogue and place an order from the comfort of their own home; and the World Wide Web became the new high street.

E-Commerce is, of course, now well established –manycustomers expect it and the round-the-clock trading it offers as a matter of course. A customer can order a product from you at 11pm and have it in their hands less than 24 hours later. For a business customer, the ability to obtain what they need, when they need it can be vital to ensuring business continuity.

It's not just about physical goods, either. E-commerce is also ideal for those services provided online. Whatever your product or service, big or small, physical or electronic, e-commerce provides one of the best possible means of getting it to your customers.

Having an e-commerce presence is thus vital to maintaining a competitive edge in almost every marketplace. If your answer to "can I buy it on your website?" is "no", it may be the last time you see that customer.

Growth in E-Commerce

In many ways, e-commerce has created its own success. Low cost barriers to entry into the marketplace are a key benefit of e-commerce, enabling many new businesses to start up with little or nothing in the way of premises and infrastructure.

Consumer demand for e-commerce has risen, as has competition – always driving forward not only the range of e-commerce applications but also their quality and convenience – both for traders and customers.

Perhaps the greatest driving factor behind the growth of e-commerce, however, has been technology. As of early 2014, some 77% of adults in the UK now have broadband access [source: Ofcom http://media.ofcom.org.uk/facts/]. In addition, the huge increase in the availability and sophistication of mobile devices in recent years now means that more people than ever have everything they need to get online and get spending almost anywhere.

Why Do I Need E-Commerce Website?

By giving customers the flexibility and the option to browse and buy online, they will be more likely to choose your businesses over your competitors. With effective digital marketing and search engine optimisation, you can extend your reach far beyond your local area without the costs traditionally associated with establishing a nationwide business.

The huge increase in mobile devices in recent years and expanding internet access throughout the UK and the rest of the world shows no sign of stopping and presents an ever expanding marketplace ready and waiting for you to tap into.
