B. reason for these website belonging to the B2B ecommerce model:

B2B ecommerce model is particular business model which stands for business to business model (Reijonen et al.2015). The terms business to business means the service are exchanged between two business organizations. One business offers the service and the other business purchase the service based on the charge that is decided while the deal was made (Bocken and Short 2016). The process is not much different than the traditional B2C ecommerce model where service is exchanged between the customer and the customer (Laukkanen 2015). The fundamental difference here is that instead of a single consumer, the client here is another business organization that are booking for the service (Porterfield 2015).

The website that is chosen here follows the same ecommerce model that is B2B or business to business ecommerce model.

The first website in the list is capify website that is expert in financial consulting and assistance (Capify 2018). The website charges organizations that are in need for financial assistance and the website helps the organization in that. It also helps the organizations to raise funds for the business and obtaining business loans which is often difficult for small and medium business

The second website charternet provides financial market research as part of their service (Charternet 2018). The company on behalf of the client conduct financial research so that it becomes easier for organization to make better decision before making investment in the market. The organization are charged after the service as per the agreement to maintain clarit

 

C. principle goals of the two websites:

The capify website mainly focus in serving small and medium scale business. It helps those business in making financial decision. The pricing is made such that the small business can afford it. Investment in financial services is often require huge resources and investment which often small and medium scale business lacks. Hence the website aims to provide financial assistance to those business that finds it difficult to manage it on their own due tom lack of resources and budget

The cahrternet website is somehow different in the style and kind of services they offer. It provides assistance in conducting market research and gain valuable insight through the data collected through the research. This type of research being complex requires experience resources and cost (Dan 2015). In order to help clients take intelligent financial decision based on market value and research data the website conducts research on behalf of the clients. Apart from the research the website also offers analysis of the research data if client opts for that. The kind ofresearch methodology is aimed towards helping clients make intelligent and effective financial decision.

E. compare and contrast of the two websites and success of the websites:

When discussing about the success factors of website one important thing should be noted here that it is not only the design of the website, a website becomes successful only when the design aspect is perfectly addressed along with perfection in the service offered (Raisch 2016). There should be perfect balance between the two for better success.

The discussion here will however take a very specific approach. First the design aspect of the two website will be analyzed. Then a comparison will be drawn between the services that is offered. This sequential approach will make sure that the comparison is effective and free from bias which is needed when making some comparison between the two website.

When a user will search the website, the first thing that matters is how easy is to type the website and how effective it resembles the service offered by the website. When it is compared between the two URL of the website, it is seen that the URL of the website 1 has done it better than the website 2.

After the customer visits the website the initial impression about the website is very much important. Here the customer will particularly look for the service that they are interested in and how easy it is to find that information (Warren 2017). In case of website 1 a very smart approach has been taken. The services that are in offer is presented in the homepage section itself. Users does not have to make much effort for to find that. However in case for website 2 the services have to be searched from the main menu section. Although that is not too complicated either. However these small details are important when making an initial impression on the customer about the website

However one thing that the other website does here better is the inclusion of awards and recognitions which will definitely create a good impression on the customer.

When users make decision about the purchase of the service for the first time, user review is very important for the customer as it gives idea about the quality as well as credibility of the service (Rule 2015). The website 2 has here managed to do better.

The features talked about so far are some major factors to attract the users as well as making them visit the website again after having a solid initial impression about the website. However one thing should be noted that when it is said that one website has done a particular things better does not mean that the other website has completely overlooked it. It just means that one website has done better than others in terms of presentation and how likely it will impact the customer, especially the ones visiting to the website for the first time.

At the very beginning of the comparison it was made clear that in order to make the website successful, it is not only sufficient to have a stunning design , it is important to attract the website visitor. But what even more important is the service that is being offered to the clients through the website (Chan 2014).

In case of the first website, users are given the opportunity to get the sample of the service before payment is made for the actual service. The best thing is that the clients are offered the sample of the service free of cost. Clients just need to apply online for that. In case of second website, the visitor first need to pay some amount. Although the initial consulting cost is removed, however the information of this has not been provided clearly for the clients.

After all the factors like website design, services offered it can be said that the first website Capify will be more successful than the second website.
