embedded commerce
Question: What does "embedded commerce"
mean?
Answer: A new type of service provider that allows content web sites to make profits losing traffic or having to build an online store. Some service providers offer e-commerce services in which the customer places an order right on the content web site. The web site appears to be the retailer. However, behind the scenes, the service provider processes the order and handles product distribution, giving the content site a portion of every sale. Other providers set up web sites with brand-name Internet retailers, right on the content web site. The content web site gets a portion of the sales, similar to an affiliate program.
