What is E-commerce?
E-commerce, or electronic commerce, refers to the buying and selling of goods or services over the internet. It’s a direct sales method that breaks down geographical barriers, making products and services accessible to a global audience. With the rapid rise of online shopping, e-commerce has become an essential component for any business looking to adapt to modern consumer habits.
Additionally, e-commerce provides a unique opportunity for businesses to collect valuable data on their customers, enabling personalized user experiences and optimized marketing strategies. This isn’t just limited to large companies—small businesses can also leverage e-commerce to reach a wider audience, increase their visibility, and grow their operations at a lower cost.
