Could You Be A Victim Of Online Merchant Fraud?
Business use of the Internet has soared profitably in recent years, but those who would exploit corporate electronic systems via the web haven’t been far behind. In the United States, for example, security breaches of e-commerce websites have jumped more than tenfold in the past five years, leaving a trail of viruses and compromised customer information.
Fortunately, there’s much you can do to avoid these problems, according to Bryan Sartin, director of technology for the U.S. arm of Belgian-owned Ubizen, an online systems security consulting firm. His goal, more of a crusade really, is to make sure that businesses understand how their online systems are vulnerable, the signs of trouble they should be looking for, and what to do when they sense a security breach is taking place.
eCommerce: B2B (business-to-business)
On the Internet, B2B (business-to-business), also known as e-biz, is the exchange of products, services, or information between businesses rather than between businesses and consumers. Although early interest centered on the growth of retailing on the Internet (sometimes called e-tailing), forecasts are that B2B revenue will far exceed business-to-consumers (B2C) revenue in the near future. According to studies published in early 2000, the money volume of B2B exceeds that of e-tailing by 10 to 1. Over the next five years, B2B is expected to have a compound annual growth of 41%. The Gartner Group estimates B2B revenue worldwide to be $7.29 trillion dollars by 2004. In early 2000, the volume of investment in B2B by venture capitalists was reported to be accelerating sharply although profitable B2B sites were not yet easy to find.

When starting e-commerce we have to consider the following. Website page load, Hosting, Web standards, Website friendliness, security, marketing, SEO.
Make sure that hosting you choose is reliable, make sure you allow scability either way. Even if your ecommerce website is the best out there but if your hosting is not reliable you will loose your customer. Make sure also that your web page loads fast, well of course that depends on your hosting and website design. You should also look into that even if your customer has a slow internet connection speed still they can access your web site.
