E-Business vs E-Commerce
Electronic business transactions involving money are "eCommerce" activities. However, there is much more to e-Business than selling products: what about marketing, procurement and customer education? Even to sell on-line successfully, much more is required than merely having a website that accepts credit cards.
![Page 9: E-commerce Chapter No.1](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554e34b9b4c90518468b48fc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
E-Commerce is the subset of E-Business Those activities which essentially involve
monetary transactions are termed as "e-commerce". However, e-business is a much broader term.
There are many other things besides selling including but not limited to marketing, procurement of raw materials or goods, customer education, looking for suppliers etc.
![Page 10: E-commerce Chapter No.1](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554e34b9b4c90518468b48fc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
To sell online is e-commerce but to bring and retain customers and educate them online about the product or service is e-business.

When Dell sell computers, laptops, monitors, printers, accessories etc online then it is not engaged in e-commerce but e-business. Let me tell you how. When a visitor comes on the website, the first thing he see is website design and navigation as well as those things which are going to help him find what he is looking for and if he directly lands on the page he was looking for, he looks for the information related to it. The information provided should be appealing and clear maximum doubts of the visitor so as to convert him in a client. Till now no money has been exchanged nor been talked about. So, was this e-commerce? No, it is e-business which guides the visitor.

E-commerce has also been defined as a process covering outward processes that touch customers, suppliers and external partners while e-business covers internal processes such as production, inventory management, product development, risk management, finance etc.

In all, e-commerce can be described as the use of the Internet and the web to transact business.
More formally, digitally enabled commercial transactions between and among organizations and individuals. On the other hand, e-business can be described as
the digital enablement of transactions and process within a firm, involving information systems under the control of the firm. Moreover, e-business applications turn into e-commerce precisely when an exchange of value occurs.
