    Electronic Commerce Chapter 2

    Wikipedia defines domain tasting as the practice of a domain name registrant using the five-day "grace period" (the Add Grace Period or AGP) at the beginning of the registration of an ICANN-regulated second-level domain to test the marketability of the domain. During this period, a cost-benefit analysis is conducted by the registrant on the viability of deriving income from advertisements placed on the domain's website. Furthermore, users that registered the web site would monitor the sites traffic, click-through activity, and keep the web sites that were popular. People were also returning sites under the grace period which was known as “Add Grace Period” (AGP) that were even popular and just reregistering to avoid paying the cost of registering a domain(ICANN, 2009).…

    Chapter 4 Case 1 E-Commerce Schneider

    Banner ads are small rectangular advertisements that when clicked upon will take you to the advertiser’s Web site. They vary in appearances and generally advertisers will try to be creative. Banner ads allow business to not only inform the viewer, but also to create interest. Oxfam decided against using banner ads in their advertising campaign for their relief work in Sedan for Ugandan refugees. They relied solely on email advertising; which ended up generating high revenue. Although this method was effective, I think they also could have done banner ads as well. Oxfam could have had showed pictures of the refugees as long with an enticing message to gather awareness for their cause. Although this might not generate as much revenue as the email advertising, it is good to be able to create awareness.…

    Contract: The Legal Environment of Business and Online Commerce

    Seeing as we take part in many different forms of contracts on a daily basis, they are a big part of our lives; whether it is clicking the “I Accept” button on some software we just downloaded, or signing a 10+ page lease agreement. We make many promises and commitments and it is important to know about the promises we are making on a daily basis. Last year I moved into my first apartment. I had never lived anywhere but with my parents and I was moving in with a friend of mine. We took our time choosing the right apartment and trying to find a good deal, an ideal nice apartment, but not too expensive. My question is: how many people take the time to read every page and every word of a contract before they sign it? I tried, but after you sign/read five pages, you just want to be done, and that is what leads to problems.…
