Online shopping is the process consumers go through to purchase products or services over the Internet. An online shop, e-shop, e-store, internet shop, webshop or online store evokes the physical analogy of buying products or services at a bricks-and-mortar retailer or in a shopping mall. It is an electronic commerce application used for business-to-business electronic commerce (B2B) or business-to-consumer electronic commerce (B2C).

 

Online shopping is popular mainly because of its speed and ease of use. Some issues of concern can include fluctuating exchange rates for foreign currencies, local and international laws and delivery methods


  Online shoppers can easily learn from previous experiences of different products, mostly by reading user or expert reviews. Many online stores allow customers to comment or rate their items. There are also dedicated review sites that host user reviews for different products.

  It is important to do business with reputable online stores to avoid possible Internet fraud and to easily exchange or return when things go wrong. Shoppers often read store ratings or reviews by other customers if they are not familiar with some online stores.

Some general guidelines apply when choosing an online store


  Honesty in providing product information and availability
Speed of orders processing
Shipping cost and speed: online package tracking is popular
Return/exchange policy: the time frame customers can return/exchange; who should pay the returning shipping; if there is any restocking fee etc. (Note: In the United Kingdom, Online shops are prohibited from charging a restocking fee if the consumer cancels their order in accordance with the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Act 2000
