Instructions
Search the web for an example of four of the six major types of e-commerce companies described in Section 1.4 of your textbook. The examples that you select should NOT include any of the ones listed in Table 1.3 of your textbook.
Create a written report that describes each e-commerce company (take a screenshot of each, if possible), and explain why each company fits into the category of e-commerce that you have assigned to it. Provide a short description of the history of the company, and illustrate how it was affected by or how it fits into the evolution of e-commerce. Describe the type of e-business used by each company. Include an introduction to your paper.
Your assignment should be a minimum of two pages in length, not counting the title and reference pages. You should have a minimum of four sources (i.e., one for each company), and your assignment should be formatted in APA style. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.
