This is one of the best E-books I have come across. After buying tons of worthless materials and spending hours reading them, I was frustrated; but after reading your book, I finally see the light. Thank you.

I was amazed to see how easy it is to make money on the Internet. I thought it was complicated and expensive to market on the Internet, but boy, I was wrong. Three days after I bought the book, I had my first purchase; I thought it was a mistake. From then, though, it has been increasing by the day.

What do people buy on the Internet?

Computer Products

The two biggest sellers online are almost always computer related: Computer hardware and computer software. The people who shop online are going to be, on average, more technically savvy than your average non-computer user. They are a diverse group of people who have but one thing in common: their computers. So it should make sense that computer-related products are going to be big sellers.

Four Top Hardware Products

Small-Ticket Items

Buying things online is pretty new for most people, and as such there still remain many questions in many minds. Horror stories of Internet fraud are lodged prominently in the collective subconscious of the digital world. Because of this, most online shoppers are still hesitant about handing over large sums of money for certain big-ticket items.

According to a study by the Boston Consulting Group, 60% of consumers have "significant concerns that someone will misuse the personal information they provide online." Added to this is the fact that the consumers with these fears must now buy items sight unseen. One focus group mentioned in the book E-Service by Ron Zemke and Tom Connellan was filled entirely with people unwilling to spend any more than a couple hundred dollars

 

Travel

The one glaring exception to the small-ticket trend is travel, which rebounded from an early autumn sales dip to take in $35 million from 167,000 consumers. It is becoming more and more common for people to purchase airline tickets and make hotel reservations online.

 

If you are talking revenue, travel is #1 in revenue, but the competition is very tough.

 

Books & CDs

Millions of books, CDs, and movies, are selling online through shops such as Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Music, books, and movies represent a huge portion of online sales.

 

Office Supplies

Office supplies are available online, and peak normally on back-to- school sales.  Toys and sporting goods are other popular small-ticket items, combining for over $1 billion in sales annually.

 

Which product is best to sell over the Internet?

 

If you want to start selling things on the Internet, DON'T start with a top five product; the competition is WAY too big!

Hot Products Aren't Such Hot Ideas

 

The best, easiest, cheapest, and often the most productive thing to sell on the Internet is information.

 

"The profitable companies are the ones with a well-defined niche that didn't have to go out and spend millions to get customers to come to them," ActivMedia director of research Harry Wolhandler told the E-Commerce Times.
