Abstract
Electronic Commerce is process of doing business through computer networks. A
person sitting on his chair in front of a computer can access all the facilities of the
Internet to buy or sell the products.
Unlike traditional commerce that is carried out physically with effort of a person to
go & get products, ecommerce has made it easier for human to reduce physical
work and to save time. E-Commerce which was started in early 1990’s has taken
a great leap in the world of computers, but the fact that has hindered the growth of
e-commerce is security. Security is the challenge facing e-commerce today & there
is still a lot of advancement made in the field of security.
The main advantage of e-commerce over traditional commerce is the user can
browse online shops, compare prices and order merchandise sitting at home on
their PC.
For increasing the use of e-commerce in developing countries the B2B e-
commerce is implemented for improving access to global markets for firms in
developing countries. For a developing country advancement in the field of e-
commerce is essential. The research strategy shows the importance of the e-
commerce in developing countries for business applications.

Chapter 1:
Introduction
1.1 Introduction:
Electronic commerce or ecommerce is a term for any type of business, or
commercial transaction, that involves the transfer of information across the
Internet. It covers a range of different types of businesses, from consumer
based retail sites, through auction or music sites, to business exchanges
trading goods and services between corporations. It is currently one of the
most important aspects of the Internet to emerge.
An ecommerce website is your digital storefront on the internet. It facilitates
the transaction between a buyer and seller. It is the virtual space where you
showcase products, and online customers make selections. Your website acts
as the product shelves, sales staff, and cash register of your online business
channel.
E-commerce (electronic commerce) is the buying and selling of goods and
services, or the transmitting of funds or data, over an electronic network,
primarily the internet. These e-commerce transactions typically fall within
four types: business-to-business (B2B), business-to-consumer (B2C),
consumer-to-consumer or consumer-to-business.
The terms e-commerce and e-business are often used interchangeably. The
term e-tail is also sometimes used in reference to the transactional processes
that make up online retail shopping
1.2Background:
The first recorded instance of E-commerce was in 1971 when students at Stanford
University used the ARPANET (the precursor to the internet) to buy and sell
7
marijuana. This early experiment was short-lived, however, as the university soon
shut down the operation.
It wasn’t until 1979 that the first commercial transaction was made online. This
transaction involved the sale of a Sting album from a company called NetMarket.
The first-ever online purchase was made in 1994, and it involved a Sting CD. It
was documented in the August 12, 1994 issue of the New York Times, titled
“Internet is Open,” where a “team of young cyberspace entrepreneurs celebrated
what was apparently the first retail transaction on the Internet using a readily
available version of powerful data encryption software designed to guarantee
privacy.”
Boston Computer Exchange launched in 1982. It was an online marketplace for
people interested in selling their used computers.
The 1990s saw the emergence of eCommerce as we know it today, with companies
such as Amazon and eBay leading the way. These companies allowed individuals
to buy and sell goods online, creating an entirely new market for businesses to tap
into.
Book Stacks Unlimited was launched in 1992 by Charles M. Stack. Originally it
was a dial-up bulletin board, but it was later launched as an online marketplace
from the Books.com domain.
1.3 Motivation:
➢ Opportunity to Win New And Potential Customers:
The right course of action ensures your brand marketing is heading in the
right direction. For attracting the quality traffic, we can always optimize
your website to make sure the search engine optimization is helping in

➢ Make It Convenient For Your Customers:
The prime reason behind establishing your eCommerce website should be
adding comfort to your buyers’ life by making it a little easier for them to
learn more about your services and how they can reach out to you with the
least effort or hassle. A custom designed website will have the specific
features and functionalities that will not just help the site to stand out but
also add great user experience and that factor is essential for improving sale
boost. Your online store is available 24*7 and that gives your buyer the
freedom to visit and purchase services whenever they feel like it.
➢ Increase Business Activity With 24*7 Web Presence:
Once you have an eCommerce website, all your customer requires to reach
out to you is an internet connection. Having an eCommerce website will
make it easier for your business to update your online store on available
stocks and the addition of any new product, which will keep your buyer
updated and aware of your services.

This generation of click and share has the potential to skyrocket any
business sale overnight by sharing and talking about it over the internet.
Sharing on social media and attractive web presence are some of the ways to
improve your business reach and increase the clientele.

2.1 Related Work:
The online Shopping system is one of the latest servicers most local shops in the
western world are adopting. With this method, Clothes & Accessories is ordered
online and delivered to the customer. This is made possible through the use of
electronic payment system. Customers pay with their credit cards, although credit
card customers can be served even before they make payment either through cash
or cherub. So, the system designed in this project will enable customers go online
and place order Clothes & Accessories. Due to the great increase in the awareness
of internet and the technologies associated with it, several opportunities are coming
up on the web. So many businesses and companies now venture into their business
with ease because of the internet. The greatest advantage of this system is its
FLEXIBILITY.
2.2 Description of the proposed system:
An E-Commerce Web Design Proposal is a comprehensive document that outlines
the strategy, design, and development process for creating a successful online
store. It serves as a roadmap for both the client and the web design agency,

Methodology
3.1 Software Specification:
• Language: JavaScript, Bootstrap, HTML, CSS.
3.1.1 JavaScript:
JavaScript is a dynamic programming language that's used for web development,
in web applications, for game development, and lots more. It allows you to
implement dynamic features on web pages that cannot be done with only HTML
and CSS.
JavaScript is a scripting language used to develop web pages. Developed in
Netscape, JS allows developers to create a dynamic and interactive web page to
interact with visitors and execute complex actions. It also enables users to load
content into a document without reloading the entire page.
3.1.2 Bootstrap:
Bootstrap is a free, open source front-end development framework for the creation
of websites and web apps. Designed to enable responsive development of mobile-
first websites, Bootstrap provides a collection of syntax for template designs.
In computer technology, the term bootstrapping refers to language compilers that
are able to be coded in the same language. (For example, a C compiler is now
written in the C language. Once the basic compiler is written, improvements can be
iteratively made, thus pulling the language up by its bootstraps).
3.1.3 HTML:
HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) is the code that is used to structure a web
page and its content. For example, content could be structured within a set of
paragraphs, a list of bulleted points, or using images and data tables.HTML stands
for Hyper Text Markup Language. HTML is the standard markup language for
creating Web pages. HTML describes the structure of a Web page. HTML consists

Limitation & Future Work
5.1 Limitation:
➢ Huge technological cost
➢ Security
➢ Employee cost
➢ Huge advertising cost
➢ High shipping cost
➢ Cost of packaging
➢ Warehousing cost
➢ Marketing cost
➢ Complicated E-Commerce policies
➢ Sales flow
5.2 Future Work:
According to Statista, ecommerce revenue is expected to show a yearly growth rate
of 14.56%, resulting in a projected market volume of $1,365.00 billion by 2025 —
which goes to show that ecommerce is no passing trend.
Especially with the rise of Omnichannel shopping experiences, digital buyers
should expect to be able to research, browse, shop and purchase seamlessly
between different devices and on various commerce platforms.
Other trends to watch for in the future of ecommerce include:
➢ Robust customer journeys and personalization.
➢ Artificial intelligence-enabled shopping.
➢ Social shopping.
20
