                            AMAZON                                                   EBUYER

                                                   Iframes works best in
                                                  Ebuyer.com. A frame is
                                                  shown when an item is
                                                    elected in Ebuyer.
                                                Embedding in html is much
                                                 easier because the images
                                                shows up. In Amazon, during
                                                  embedding the images
                                                  doesn’t work in iframes.
                                                Login and pay with Amazon
                                                  doesn’t work on frames.


               Amazon has a high search engine rankings. The engine guide users to search an item easily without
               having to look through all the products before selecting and finding what they’re looking for. Amazon
               products don’t show up in frames (iframes), however Ebuyer.com products shows up in frames. When a
               product is clicked or when a cursor is pointed on an item or a product in Ebuyer, a frame is shown
               around the item, which in Amazon it doesn’t happen. Login and Pay with Amazon is not compatible with
               iframes. Iframes are used in many transactional websites, which allows other websites to embed and
               link their site to or with Amazon or other similar webpages. For instance, clicking on a product may
               direct you to another webpage with similar items, typical example is an advertising websites on many
               transactional webpages. Clicking on the banner will direct you to another webpage. It’s quite easy to
               access other transactional websites, during embedding in HTML web designing, (<iframe
               src="http://astore.amazon.com/yourstore" width="500" height="4000" frameborder="0"
               scrolling="no"></iframe>).

               Ease of Making a Transaction
               To buy and purchase an item or have purchased parcels delivered, a user or a customer have to register
               with the business (transactional website). This will give them access to browse, look up and purchase
               item easily and faster, also during payment process. Amazon’s login facility is designed to help users sell,
               buy and have their items delivered. Customers shopping via high street shops don’t specifically need a
               login facility to be able to purchase an item. The login facility will help a user to track down their parcel
               during delivery process. They can also get free coupons to purchase items. Items sell online are much
               cheaper than items sold via high street shops. Signing up an Amazon account will help them to
               communicate with the business online when there is a new product in stock. For a customer to pay for
               purchased items, they have to login to their account pages, where their personal information is entered.
