For e-commerce, look at the large companies like Amazon, eBay, Expedia.  Then, look at some smaller niche players too, like BlueNile and Provide Commerce (Proflowers.com).  All of those are public companies, so you can read quite a bit about them online.  For some successful private companies, try eBags.com, Art.com (allposters.com).  In Europe private companies would be Figleaves.com and Yoox.com.  All of the above companies are considered pioneers in e-retail.  All are pure plays in the e-world.

Definitely put down online sales because it's more general, so it sounds like you have more experience with selling different products and different customers.  You can put down E-bay as a place you have sold on, or any other places.

The merchants or the traders were, are and will be necessary bridge between producers and end-users. Of course I am talking about the merchants of commodities trading where merchant should have full set of logisitics, price risk management and marketing systems. Due to this factors merchant always will be in need in our globalizing world trade market. The main is what you are going to trade with?

Well, I just finished my course in principles of business. According to my book there are really two types of selling. Retail and industrial. Retail is stated as selling a consumer a product for the buyer's personal or household use. Industrial is defined as selling products to other businesses for the purpose of manufacturing other products for resale. So yours seems to be a retail, and in more detail it is a service that you are offering, not a good. Sorry i couldnt be more detailed.

There are thousands of sellers on Ebay who have built a home based business.  In most cases, when you buy from these sellers, you don't even know if they are home based.\n\nMy point is that where you are based is less important than the product you sell.  If you want to know what products sell well on the internet, you can do some research by looking at what items get listed the most on Ebay.  Watches, jewelry, tools, DVDs, book and toys are just a few examples.\n\nGood luck!

I find both wikipedia.com and epinions.com very helpful.  Both are open forums where anyone can post info about the ecommerce site. Wikipedia has a more objective tone, whereas as epinions has loads of content.

A number of people in your situation have started their own stores on e-bay. There are a number of books on how to get started. The e-bay site can give you a lot of information.

They are good for traditional businesses like restaurants and the like. \n\nBut HORRIBLE when it comes to businesses online. They have hardly any clue. Most of those I talked to either do not understand the Web, how one can make money from the Web and totally clueless to marketing a website.\n\nIf your business is OFFLINE - traditional and brick and mortar, they can give you helpful advice.

E-procurement (Electronic Procurement) is the business-to-business purchase and sale of supplies and services through the Internet as well as other information and networking systems, such as electronic data interchange (EDI) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). An important part of many B2B sites, e-procurement is also sometimes referred to by other terms, such as supplier exchange. Typically, e-procurement Web sites allow qualified and registered users to look for buyers or sellers of goods and services. Depending on the approach, buyers or sellers may specify prices or invite bids. Transactions can be initiated and completed. Ongoing purchases may qualify customers for volume discounts or special offers. E-procurement software may make it possible to automate some buying and selling. Companies participating expect to be able to control parts inventories more effectively, reduce purchasing agent overhead, and improve manufacturing cycles. E-procurement is expected to be integrated with the trend toward computerized supply chain management.\n\nThere are six main types of e-procurement:\n\nWeb-based ERP (Electronic Resource Planning): Creating and approving purchasing requisitions, placing purchase orders and receiving goods and services by using a software system based on Internet technology. \ne-MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Operating): The same as web-based ERP except that the goods and services ordered are non-product related MRO supplies. \ne-sourcing: Identifying new suppliers for a specific category of purchasing requirements using Internet technology. \ne-tendering: Sending requests for information and prices to suppliers and receiving the responses of suppliers using Internet technology. \ne-reverse auctioning: Using Internet technology to buy goods and services from a number of known or unknown suppliers. \ne-informing: Gathering and distributing purchasing information both from and to internal and external parties using Internet technology. \nVocabulary for e-procurement:\n\nRFI: request for information. \nRFO': request for offer \nRFQ: request for quotation \nRFx: the above three together. \nProcurement catalogs are individually negotiated electronic product catalogs and must comply with the specific requirements of the purchasing organization. One important aspect of electronic procurement in large companies is control of the acquisition process. The company's employees are not supposed to order the goods they need from just any supplier (cf. Maverick Buying), but from suppliers with whom a framework agreement has been reached. The product catalogs of the manufacturers, therefore, have to be fed into the purchasing organization's procurement systems directly – and employees are only allowed to order from these catalogs. \nThis means that the catalogs must meet specific format requirements, such as BMEcat or eCl@ss, for example. These requirements may differ from one company to another. To create these catalogs, you need a catalog solution that can derive different catalog versions from a central database with a minimum of maintenance.\ne-Procurement is the term for electronic procurement or purchasing. e-Procurement is a part of e-business and is used to designate the optimized, Internet-based acquisition process of a company. It refers not just to the purchasing process itself but to electronic negotiations and the conclusion of contracts with suppliers as well. \nBecause the purchasing process is simplified by the electronic handling of operative tasks, strategic tasks can be given a more important role in the process. These new strategic purchasing tasks include the management of contacts to existing and new suppliers as well as the creation of new market structures by actively consolidating the supply-side.

Very simple really.\n\nGoods are tangible items that you would sell to your customer (eg. cars, marmalade, chocolate, fridges, furniture, etc)\n\nServices are intangible items you would sell (eg. labour, insurance, money loans, decorating, plumbing, etc).

eBay has become a very important marketplace for home business owners. Many people are making a living or earning additional income by selling on eBay. \n\nOne success model of eBay is the couple Jay and Marie Senese (username jayandmarie) http://stores.ebay.com/JayAndMarie of the 1-cent CD fame. They have the highest positive feedback number of all sellers on eBay. Their business model is to buy very low cost CDs in bulk (those that CD stores sell in their discount bins) and offer them on eBay at a starting price of 1 cent. Their success is based on the fact that they stumbled on a sustainable business model with products that people really want. They sold their business -- where else but on eBay -- for starting bid of $5 million! \n\nBut while some are enjoying phenomenal success on eBay, selling on eBay is not as easy as some portray. For one, competition is getting tough, as more sellers flock to eBay; with even the big boys joining the eBay marketplace. Big businesses such as Sears, Dell, Hewlett Packard among others are now using eBay as an additional sales channel for their products (including returns and defective merchandise). With more and more sellers participating in the eBay marketplace, it has become harder for listings to be seen by potential buyers. Just go to eBay and check out completed auctions and you will find many listings that ended without a single bid. \n\nAdd to that the increasing listing and final value fees, and eBay is slowly becoming an expensive marketplace. Imagine if you list 100 items, but only 10 ended up with bids – and all of them your minimum bids. A 10% selling rate is all too common, with some even seeing worse selling percentages. If this low sell-through rate persists, you will start to feel the pinch of all the listing and other fees associated with selling on eBay. \n\nTo be successful on eBay, you only need to do one thing: Sell products that people actually want. \n\nThe article “How to Find the Hottest Products to Sell on eBay”  lists the various ways eBay helps sellers like you to determine exactly what the hot items to sell on their marketplace, as follows: \n\nItems In Demand = the most popular items currently within that particular category. To see the In Demand page, go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/sellbycategory.html   \n\nHot Items by Category Report = a monthly report that lists the fastest growing categories on eBay for the previous month. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/whatshot.html and select "Hot Items by Category" from the menu on the left. \n\neBay Pulse = "a daily snapshot of current trends, hot picks, and cool stuff on eBay". Go to http://pulse.eBay.com/  to see eBay Pulse in action. \n\nMerchandising Calendar = eBay promotes specific categories on its home page each month. Savvy eBayers know that this home page exposure results in more interest in such categories. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/calendar.html   to view the current Merchandising Calendar.

You have no idea how long the answer to that question could be. Try searching Yahoo! for "setting up an ecommerce website" and read some of the articles.
