Describe THREE (3) categories of e-commerce revenue models with ONE (1) real-life example for each model....

Describe THREE (3) categories of e-commerce revenue models with ONE (1) real-life example for each model. Below are the guidelines of answer. DO NOT use guidelines below as the answer of question.

Answer:

First let me list the three :
1. Affiliate marketing
2. Online advertising
3. Transaction fees
Explanation:
1. Affiliate marketing enables you to earn revenue by marketing or offering another product for sale on your site. For example, you may reference a book you read and recommend your customers get a copy for themselves. You could also set up an affiliate account and place a direct link to the book on the Amazon site, which will pay you a percentage of the sale. If you decide to participate in affiliate marketing, you\'ll need to research which companies might provide you with a financial incentive for promoting their sites on your page.
When you\'re just starting out, the money you earn from affiliate marketing may be just a small, supplemental amount. However, as traffic to your site increases, you may enjoy more substantial income.
2. Online advertising is a very popular revenue model for e-commerce businesses. In this method, companies or organizations buy advertising space on your site, provide a designed ad or written message, and then pay you for promoting their messages. Media sites, such as magazines, newspapers, and television channels typically use online advertising.
Two common types of online advertising include pay-per-click and pay-per-view, which determine how much advertisers will pay for their advertisements. While some sites charge a set fee for placing an ad, most pay a set fee for each person who clicks on a link or views a page related to the advertiser. As traffic to your site grows and more people click on an advertiser\'s link or view a related page, you\'ll earn more advertising revenue.
3. Transaction fees are the charges a company pays for using their service. If you\'ve ever sold anything on eBay, you know there\'s a set price for posting a product for sale. Each time a transaction happens, you pay a small fee to eBay for marketing your product. Whether you charge a small fee for a company to list a transaction or for someone to view a video, transaction fees can be a sizable if the traffic to the website is substantial.
Examples of the firms that use these revenue models are:
1. TDC and Orange are using Affiliate marketing .
2. Coco Cola , AMEX , Mint are using Online advertising .
3. Google (e.g. AdWords and AdSense),Facebook,New York Times (Marketing) are using Transaction fees

Provide an example of any company that is using one of the five strategic approaches described other than the examples given. Again you only need to address 1 of the 5.

Five most frequently used and dependable strategic approaches to setting a company apart from rivals, building strong customer loyalty, and winning a competitive advantage are:

  1. A low-cost provider strategy- achieving a cost-based advantage over rivals.
  2. A broad differentiation strategy- seeking to differentiate the company’s product or service from that of rivals in ways that will appear to a broad spectrum of buyers.
  3. A focus low-cost strategy- concentrating on a narrow buyer segment (or market niche) and outperforming rivals by having lower costs and thus being able to serve niche members Example (private label manufacturers of food, health and beauty products, and nutritional products)
  4. A focused differentiation strategy- concentrating on a narrow buyer segment and outcompeting rivals by offering customized attributes that meet their specialized needs and tastes better than rivals
  5. A best-cost provider strategy- giving customers more value for the money satisfying expectations on key quality features, performance, and/or service attributes while beating their price expectations.
