Online market place:



nline marketplace (or online ecommerce marketplace) refers to a type of ecommerce site where product and inventory information is provided by multiple third parties, whereas transactions are processes by the marketplace operator. Online marketplaces have become a driver of new business for online merchants that leverage them as channels for increased sales. Online marketplaces are the primary type of multichannel ecommerce.
In an online marketplace, consumer transactions are processed by the marketplace operator, which functions as the merchant of record, and then delivered and fulfilled by the participating retailers, wholesalers or dropshippers. Marketplaces offer a variety of products and provide consumers with the convenience of purchasing such products from a single location. Marketplaces generally provide better prices, greater selection and higher levels of availability than traditional online retailers.
[edit]Types of Online Marketplaces


Online marketplaces are classified according to the following parameters: vertical/horizontal and branded/non-branded.
An example of a horizontal marketplace is Buy.com, where products in a variety of categories are presented; an example of a vertical marketplace is mydeco.com's KitchenShop, where product only from a single vertical are offered.
A branded marketplace is a marketplace where merchants selling the products are branded; a non-branded marketplace is one where the consumer only sees the price, but not the name of the merchant that will deliver their purchase.


OnLine Marketplace guides companies in the 
selling of ideas, products and services economically.
