As a professional online wholesale consumer electronics retailer, coming along the way of e-commerce, epathchina. com has its valuable experience. Here, epathchina. com likes to discuss several ways of enterprise developing foreign trade via internet.  

1. Search engine + enterprise website

If an enterprise wants to use this kind, the first thing it needs to do is to build its own website. After setting up the web, enterprise needs to promote the website to attract more attention from the public. Generally speaking, the common operating is taking advantage of search engine like google. com, yahoo. com, live. com etc. by SEO or purchasing relevant PPC to increase the flow of website and the better rank on the Alexa. Therefore, the orders of this model are large and medium.

2. Traditional B2B platform

It is well known model. As the largest B2B platform in the world, there is no doubt that many companies are chosen with Alibaba. com companies is available, the use of global resources and a platform for the sale. For example, global sources. com, Made in China. com, hc360. Com and ec1588. com is so famous and well known B2B websites for the domestic market. Undeniably, orders are typically large and medium.

3. Comprehensive foreign trade B2B platforms

Except for traditional B2B flatform, there are some other new foreign trade B2B platforms, such as dhgate. com, tradetang. com, beltal. com etc. these kinds of websites do not supply the commodities themselves. They just allow other merchants register on the web, whose model is almost exactly same with ebay. com.

Furthermore, this mode has a strong potential. Nevertheless, traditional B2B websites is possible to step into the field and may post a serious impact to existing websites, if aliabab. com’s access. Usually, their orders are small, but small wholesale.

4. Vertical foreign trade B2B platform

For instance, chinavasion. com, lightinthebox. com, tomtop. com etc. these vertical foreign trade B2B platforms’ differences from comprehensive B2B transaction platform are they don’t allow other merchants to register, but purchase products what the customers ordered voluntarily most time. They have only a little stock.

Compared to dhgate. com?tradetang. com?Beltal. com etc, these kind of websites’ prospect is relatively brighter. Of course, their orders are often small (small wholesale).

5. International retail platform

Undoubtedly, there are a great many excellent large international retail platforms like ebay. com?amazon. com?ioffer. com etc. these websites are very familiar to the public. They will not be introduced more here. Their orders are retail.

6. Foreign trade B2C websites

Enterprises can take advantages of framesdirect. com, zennioptical. com, optical4less. com etc. they are just pure B2C websites. For the development tendency, foreign trade B2C will surpass domestic trade B2C. They enjoy strong potential too. Their orders are retail.

To sum up, when enterprises develop foreign trade following the above ways, the later the higher profits, but the trading turnover will decrease correspondingly.
