One of the best Advantages E Commerce has is to Overcome Geographical Limitations. If you have a physical store, you are limited by the geographical area that you can service. With an ecommerce website, the whole world is your playground. Additionally, the advent of mcommerce, i.e., ecommerce on mobile devices, has dissolved every remaining limitation of geography. Another advantage that E Commerce has is Remain Open All the Time. Now stores are open 24/7/365. Ecommerce websites can run all the time. From the merchant's point of view, this increases the number of orders they receive. From the customer's point of view, an "always open" store is more convenient. This 24/7 idea makes consumers feel as if they can buy what they want when they want.
