This is the age of Internet which has brought world into our bedrooms and offices. Things are just a click away. With development of the technology new trends are being set.

Online Shopping is one such trend becoming more and more popular every passing day. People are using the Web to shop for a variety of items ranging from blankets to shoes and from cellphones to airplane tickets and what not. Besides some disadvantages, Online Shopping offers many advantages.

Shop anything anytime
Online shoppers can choose any time of the day or night to get on the Web and shop. They need not to worry about inclement weather, wait for taxi or opening of the market. Even some people are home-bound so they can buy thing sitting in their homes.

Online market is very wide
Online shopping also offers wide range sellers. Online market is unending. One can move to another vendor easily and quickly. Moreover, it also provides the chance to compare prices from hundreds of different vendors.

Informed purchases
Another advantage is it’s easy to access consumer reviews for pretty much any product one can think of online, which makes for more informed purchases.

No Sales Pressure
Online shopping also makes people free from pressure of sales. We've all been awkwardly propositioned by eager salespeople. One doesn't have to put up with that online.

What can deter buyers to buy online?
It is, however, rightly said that a coin has two faces. The online shopping is not the different too. It has disadvantages too.

One can’t try things on. If, for example, one intends to buy a clothing item, he/she doesn’t have the ability to feel the material, try it on, and see how it's made.

When a customer wants to talk to seller immediately, he/she may have to wait for a quite long time to get his/her question answered.

Internet is insecure, non-personal
Privacy and security are legitimate concerns for any online shopper, but there are precautions you can take to make sure your transaction is a safe one.
