Well social shopping has come forward with the promise of a satisfactory alternative to brick and mortar shopping. Though it has taken up speed but according to the latest researches there is a lot more to look forward to. I mean it has been seen that a negligible percentage of Internet users go for shopping and a more less population wants to repeat the experience of online shopping.
I can think of some of the reasons though. Well, to start off with, most of the shopping portals have the problem with earning trust if the users. Most of the users are not sure weather their demand would be properly met by the portals or if they would get the product they ordered for in the right time and right place. The mode of shipment is one another big issue that has posed a problem in this respect. I mean their aren't many options for shipping and most of the portals charge a high sum for shipping. This is the reason why e-commerce is yet to gain momentum in Asia and most of the American sites are not doing good in the Asian continent.
Then comes the cluttered layout of the portals...one can hardly find out the desired things. I mean c'mon there has to some way. And what can it be...? .. Let me know...
