Different Types of Websites
You must have heard of the international Amazon, Alibaba multi vendor ecommerce website. Many more multi-vendor e-commerce websites including Daraz, Ajkerdeal have been launched in our country.

We will find out what are the benefits of multivendor e-commerce websites?
Let’s get acquainted with different types of ecommerce websites.
Regular E-commerce Website
You have some quality products. You now divide the products into several categories and arrange them on the website. The order came to you. Delivered. That’s all. This is a regular ecommerce website.
Multi Vendor Ecommerce Website
You have no products of your own. But you have an ecommerce website. Different vendors will upload their products to your site for sale. Product orders will come to you. Then you take the product from the vendor and give it to the customer, as a site admin you will keep a commission from the vendor. This is the idea of Multi Vendor eCommerce website.
However, the owners of some multi-vendor ecommerce websites bring their own godowns and store the products from the vendors. So can deliver to customers quickly. Again some bring the product from the vendor after the order arrives. That is why delivery of goods is delayed, many times orders are canceled. For example, we can say that the international Amazon, Alibaba and in our country Daraz, Ajkerdeal are Multi Vendors.
Classified Ad Posting Website
Have you ever traded products from sales.com, clickbd.com? Many people advertise their old products here. Here users can advertise the sale of their product. Customers will contact the seller directly. Unlike multi vendor websites, the site admin will not be a middleman. So how does the site admin earn money? Money can be taken from sellers with premium ads. This is the classified ad posting website.
Advantages of Multivendor E-commerce Website
