  • Abstract
    As the Internet grew and evolved, it became more broadly used by everyone. What once was destined to military and academic purposes is now used as a marketing strategy, a means to sell products and perform electronic business. Electronic business exists in two distinct forms. One is between suppliers and consumers of goods or services. The other is between a seller (company) and a final consumer (home user). Nowadays, many companies see the Internet as a niche to be explored. For some of them, implementing an e-commerce Web site is not a financial challenge, whereas it is different for smaller businesses. This work defines the most appropriate structure for a given business, taking into account its own resources combined with those found on the Web, and presents an e-commerce site generating tool that solves small businesses´ troubles
