With thousands of e-retailers mushrooming around a while, people are relying more on internet than ever. They are turning online to buy almost everything from diapers to kid’s apparels, books to cupboard, traveling packages to vehicles, houses and even groceries this year, pushing e-commerce returns to $14 billion with the chances of even higher earnings in 2013.  Factors like growing price-rise and slower economic growth failed to moisten the e-marketing frenzy as more and more brands are choosing to sell their goods through the online route, offering countless options and tempting prices to buyers. Increasing accessibility of internet and availability of payment options are increasing the growth of internet market. Where the shopping were limited to apparels and accessories for boys and girls, later on for men and women, has now extended to lifestyle items like wall paintings, lanterns, mats and what not. Product Range is simultaneously rising to kid’s accessories like kid’s Toothbrush Cover, Toothbrush Holders, Soft combs and even pet accessories like chains, food, bowls etc. While online travel market still comprises a major portion of the e-commerce market, other segments are catching up fast. The reasons are sometimes due to the website's lack of quality, and another due to a lack of trust in the security. But 2013 is expected to give a lot more in such terms, online travel is trusted to grow by 18% this year. In response to eCommerce growth, HomeShop18.com Founder Sundeep Malhotra said, "The coming year looks promising for the industry." The things will be seen in a different mode altogether, after the entries of big names like Amazon, Flipkart, and jungle.com (Desi Version of Amazon.com), Now they have focused More on personalized offers, loyalty programmers and better customer care other then selling clothing on exact prices. “Companies would focus on to offer online customers a better, more relevant online experience," an industry analyst said. As seen early some days, where companies were giving irresistible offers to their customers in the name of ‘Deal of the day’ where they were discounting one product each day, the idea was to lure them more and more to buy from them. As Most people who are usually be called as obsessive shoppers do not have enough willpower to avoid the temptation to overuse them, especially online, where the temptation to buy on impulse is so much greater. They tend to think they need everything right then. For an instance if they are looking for kid’s dresses like tops, skirts, frocks and found kid’s rompers on most charming prices, they will just pick without giving a thought if they actually want it. Another factor which contributes widely on online shopping is social media. Companies are increasing their presence on social media platforms after acknowledging the fact that on an average people are spending 4 hours a day on social media sites like Facebook, twitter, LinkedIn etc. They are luring the maximum of worldwide population with a click. The medium is changed from messages to banner messages and commercial videos. Social media contributed a lot in growing the online shopping trust. Last but not the least, e-retailers have come to a conclusion that Indian market still needs something close to touch and feel to acknowledge the product quality against its worth. Therefore they are thinking ahead to provide something really close to build their trust on online shops. Yebhi.com has started a service called try n buy where their customers are able to select maximum of 3 products and can choose one at the time of delivery. This is not all, eCommerce has a great scope and will let you expect more this year and the following year. Enjoy shopping online for more and more tempting benefits. Hi, this is Piyush.
