电子商务是什么

电子商务是什么

电子商务通常是指是在全球各地广泛的商业贸易活动中，在因特网开放的网络环境下，基于浏览器/服

务器应用方式，买卖双方不谋面地进行各种商贸活动，实现消费者的网上购物、商户之间的网上交易和在

线电子支付以及各种商务活动、交易活动、金融活动和相关的综合服务活动的一种新型的商业运营模式。

电子商务是利用微电脑技术和网络通讯技术进行的商务活动。各国政府、学者、企业界人士根据自己所处

的地位和对电子商务参与的角度和程度的不同，给出了许多不同的定义。

侠义上讲，电子商务（Electronic Commerce简称EC)是指：通过使用互联网等电子工具（这些工具包

括电报、电话、广播、电视、传真、计算机、计算机网络、移动通信等）在全球范围内进行的商务贸易活

动。是以计算机网络为基础所进行的各种商务活动，包括商品和服务的提供者、广告商、消费者、中介商

等有关各方行为的总和。人们一般理解的电子商务是指狭义上的电子商务。

广义上讲，电子商务一词源自于Electronic Business，就是通过电子手段进行的商业事务活动。通

过使用互联网等电子工具，使公司内部、供应商、客户和合作伙伴之间，利用电子业务共享信息，实现企

业间业务流程的电子化，配合企业内部的电子化生产管理系统，提高企业的生产、库存、流通和资金等各

个环节的效率

电子商务是利用计算机技术、网络技术和远程通信技术，实现电子化、数字化和网络化，商务化的整

个商务过程；是以商务活动为主体，以计算机网络为基础，以电子化方式为手段，在法律许可范围内所进

行的商务活动交易过程；是运用数字信息技术，对企业的各项活动进行持续优化的过程；是指交易当事人

或参与人利用现代信息技术和计算机网络（包括互联网、移动网络和其他信息网络）所进行的各类商业活

动，包括货物交易、服务交易和知识产权交易

电子商务整体分为几类：

1、推广营销：包括各类的关键词、邮件、广告、博客、论坛等等，这类营销以品牌推广为主，不进行实际

的销售，但是为销售做好了打前站的工作铺垫；

2、经营销售：如淘宝（B2C）阿里巴巴 （B2B）慧聪 当当等等，不管批发还是零售都属于经营销售网络

营销的范畴；

3、线上线下网络营销：电子商务实际属于商务活动的一种，只是它跨越了地域和时间的限制，将商务活动

更加扩大化，商务速度和模式更容易进行。

电子商务的其他模式还有很多，比如策划营销、网络展示营销等等，需要我们不断探讨和创新。

电子商务一般来讲包含了b2b b2c c2c等多种模式。Internet上的电子商务可以分为三个方面：信息服

务、交易和支付。主要内容包括：电子商情广告；电子选购和交易、电子交易凭证的交换；电子支付与结

算以及售后的网上服务等。主要交易类型有企业与个人的交易(B to C方式)和企业之间的交易(B to B方式)

两种。 参与电子商务的实体有四类：顾客(个人消费者或企业集团)、商户(包括销售商、制造商、储运商)、

银行(包括发卡行、收单行)及认证中心。

电子商务是Internet爆炸式发展的直接产物，是网络技术应用的全新发展方向。Internet本身所具有的

开放性、全球性、低成本、高效率的特点，也成为电子商务的内在特征，并使得电子商务大大超越了作为

一种新的贸易形式所具有的价值，它不仅会改变企业本身的生产、经营、管理活动，而且将影响到整个社

会的经济运行与结构。

电子商务指的是利用简单、快捷、低成本的电子通讯方式，买卖双方不谋面地进行各种商贸活动。电

子商务可以通过多种电子通讯方式来完成。简单的，比如你通过打电话或发传真的方式来与客户进行商贸

活动，似乎也可以称作为电子商务；但是，现在人们所探讨的电子商务主要是以EDI（电子数据交换）和

ITERET来完成的。尤其是随着ITERET技术的日益成熟，电子商务真正的发展将是建立在

ITERET技术上的。所以也有人把电子商务简称为IC（ITERET COMMERCE）。

从贸易活动的角度分析，电子商务可以在多个环节实现，由此也可以将电子商务分为两个层次，较低层

次的电子商务如电子商情、电子贸易、电子合同等；最完整的也是最高级的电子商务应该是利用ITEET

网络能够进行全部的贸易活动，即在网上将信息流、商流、资金流和部分的物流完整地实现，也就是说，

你可以从寻客户开始，一直到洽谈、订货、在线付（收）款、开据电子发票以至到电子报关、电子纳税

等通过ITERET一气呵成。

要实现完整的电子商务还会涉及到很多方面，除了买家、卖家外，还要有银行或金融机构、政府机构、

认证机构、配送中心等机构的加入才行。由于参与电子商务中的各方在物理上是互不谋面的，因此整个电

子商务过程并不是物理世界商务活动的翻版，网上银行、在线电子支付等条件和数据加密、电子签名等技

术在电子商务中发挥着重要的不可或缺的作用。

电子商务的流程：

商务流程对于电子商务系统是十分重要的。商务流程是指企业在具体从事一个商贸交易过程中的实际操作

步骤和处理过程。

一、电子商务的通用交易过程

1.交易前的准备 2. 交易磋商 3. 签订合同与办理手续 4. 合同的履行和支付过程

二、个人消费者的购物过程

三、 企业—企业电子商务交易过程

电子商务的作用：

电子商务可提供网上交易和管理等全过程的服务，因此它具有广告宣传、咨询洽谈、网上订购、网上

支付、电子帐户、服务传递、意见征询、交易管理等各项功能。

（1）广告宣传：电子商务可凭借企业的Web服务器和客户的浏览，在Internet上发播各类商业信息。客

户可借助网上的检索工具（Search）迅速地到所需商品信息，而商家可利用网上主页(HomePage)和电

子邮件(E-mail)在全球范围内作广告宣传。与以往的各类广告相比，网上的广告成本最为低廉，而给顾客的

信息量却最为丰富。

（2）咨询洽谈：电子商务可借助非实时的(E-mail)，新闻组（ewsGroup）和实时的讨论组(chat)

来了解市场和商品信息、洽谈交易事务，如有进一步的需求，还可用网上的白板会议(WhiteboardConference)

来交流即时的图形信息。网上的咨询和洽谈能超越人们面对面洽谈的限制、提供多种方便的异地交谈形式。

（3）网上订购：电子商务可借助Web中的邮件交互传送实现网上的订购。网上的订购通常都是在产品介

绍的页面上提供十分友好的订购提示信息和订购交互格式框。当客户填完订购单后，通常系统会回复确认

信息单来保证订购信息的收悉。订购信息也可采用加密的方式使客户和商家的商业信息不会泄漏。

（4）网上支付：电子商务要成为一个完整的过程。网上支付是重要的环节。客户和商家之间可采用信用卡

帐号进行支付。在网上直接采用电子支付手段将可省略交易中很多人员的开销。网上支付将需要更为可靠

的信息传输安全性控制以防止欺骗、窃听、冒用等非法行为。

（5）电子帐户：网上的支付必需要有电子金融来支持，即银行或信用卡公司及保险公司等金融单位要为金

融服务提供网上操作的服务。而电子帐户管理是其基本的组成部分。

（6）服务传递：对于已付了款的客户应将其订购的货物尽快地传递到他们的手中。而有些货物在本地，有

些货物在异地，将能在网络中进行物流的调配。而最适合在网上直接传递的货物是信息产品

（7）意见征询：电子商务能十分方便地采用网页上的“选择”、“填空”等格式文件来收集用户对销售服务的

反馈意见。这样使企业的市场运营能形成一个封闭的回路。客户的反馈意见不仅能提高售后服务的水平，

更使企业获得改进产品、发现市场的商业机会。

（8）交易管理：整个交易的管理将涉及到人、财、物多个方面，企业和企业、企业和客户及企业内部等各

方面的协调和管理。因此，交易管理是涉及商务活动全过程的管理。

从而在一定程度上改变了整个社会经济运行的方式。

5. 电子商务一方面破除了时空的壁垒，另一方面又提供了丰富的信息资源，为各种社会经济要素的重新

组合提供了更多的可能，这将影响到社会的经济布局和结构。

6. 互动性:通过互联网,商家之间可以直接交流,谈判,签合同,消费者也可以把自己的反馈建议反映到企业

或商家的网站,而企业或者商家则要根据消费者的反馈及时调查产品种类及服务品质,做到良性互动.
