Introduction

I. INTRODUCTION

Customers get many benefits via online shopping this helps e-commerce companies to build long-lasting and profitable relationships with their customers. For making a strong relationship with these users it is very important to focus on the customer as a whole and make sense of a flood of real-time information that goes well beyond demographics or shopping behavior. There are two entities that will have the access to the system. One is the admin and another one will be the registered user. Admin can add product details, view all the order details and can also view the sales of the products. Users need to register with basic registration details to generate a valid username and password.

Electronic Commerce (also referred to as EC, e-commerce eCommerce or ecommerce) consists primarily of the distributing, buying, selling, marketing and servicing of products or services over electronic systems such as the Internet and other computer networks.

E-commerce follows the same basic principles that traditional commerce follows-that is, buyers and sellers exchange and transport goods from one place to another.
