Ecommerce is the term used to describe the selling of goods and services over the Internet. In the most general sense, simply creating a Web site that advertises and promotes your products can be considered “ecommerce.” In recent years, however, ecommerce has become much more sophisticated. Ecommerce businesses now offer elaborate online stores where customers can browse thousands of products, place an order, select the desired shipping method and pay for their purchases using their credit cards.

Search engines and directories are the main sources of traffic for almost every website. Submitting to directories will also boost your link popularity which is an extremely important factor for your site's ranking and listing on search engines globally.
