Comprehensive discussions are included on all major categories of software and systems for transacting Web commerce, such as outsourcing commerce (on malls or hosting services), electronic–catalog and merchant–server software, high–end commerce solutions, payment options, and security solutions. There are in–depth explanations provided for the various features, pricing, and setup requirements, as well as the pros and cons of each type of system. The important and pressing topic of Web commerce security is also explored in detail.
Beyond selecting the right kinds of hardware, software, payment options, and security solutions for your Web commerce system, the book also considers issues that go beyond system setup. Depending upon what kind of industry you′re in, or what kind of customers you have, unique strategies are necessary to make the most of your Web commerce systems. Maddox addresses industry–specific questions like: If you′re a car manufacturer, what are some of the problems you′ll face trying to sell expensive items over the Web? If you′re a business–to–business seller, how do you avoid disrupting the sales channel? She then presents strategies for dealing with these unique problems effectively.
The book goes on to describe how to best reach your target audience and how to personalize and promote your Web site effectively. Finally, Maddox takes a look at the future of Web commerce.

Store description
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
