Advantages of e-commerce

1. Wider environment: People can conduct online transactions anytime and anywhere without being limited by time, space or traditional shopping.

2. Broader market: The world on the Internet will become very small. A merchant can face consumers all over the world, and a consumer can shop in any merchant in the world.

3. Faster circulation and lower price: E-commerce reduces the intermediate links of commodity circulation and saves a lot of expenses, thus greatly reducing the cost of commodity circulation and transaction.
