Drop Shipping
The Good:
• You don't invest in inventory.
The Bad:
• You have no buying power.• Competition will drive down your margins.• Drop ship wholesales do not provide products for
niche markets.
The Ugly:
• You can work a lot, sell a lot and make no money.

Geographic Marketing

For example, with Google AdWords you can:• Search or browse for countries, territories, regions, and
cities.• Select a preset bundle of locations.• Choose a point on the map and specify a radius around
it where your ads will appear.• Target a custom shape on the map.• Exclude areas within your selected locations.

AdSense has become a popular method of placing advertising on a website because the advertisements are less intrusive than most banners, and the content of the advertisements is often relevant to the website.Many websites use AdSense to monetize their content. AdSense has been particularly important for delivering advertising revenue to small websites that do not have the resources for developing advertising sales programs and sales people.

This is scary stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
![Page 136: E commerce course_june_2010_dan_bond](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110306/554e25cab4c90571798b5053/html5/thumbnails/136.jpg)
In the 1990s, Congress passed the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). It included a very powerful tool to quickly attack the theft of unregistered copyright-protected materials so victims of theft of creative works can reach out into cyberspace and aggressively pursue an infringer. This tool, known as the “takedown notice,” requires a website host to pull down an allegedly infringing website or page merely upon receipt of a specified notice from the owner or its lawyer. No lawsuit is necessary. The implications to the host are significant: the failure to pull it down exposes the hosting company to liability for copyright infringement under traditional doctrines of law, and it also loses immunity created by the DMCA. The law giveth, and the law taketh away.

WARNING!
Internet sales are not always tax free.
There are over 11,000 sales tax jurisdictions in the United States.
Ecommerce merchants located in a state without a sales tax do not have to collect sales tax unless they have taken some action to create a physical presence in another state.
![Page 139: E commerce course_june_2010_dan_bond](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110306/554e25cab4c90571798b5053/html5/thumbnails/139.jpg)
Other states that do not have sales taxes are Alaska, Hawaii, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon.

Sales tax vulnerability
In April 2008 the State of New York inserted an item in the state budget asserting sales tax jurisdiction over Amazon.com sales to residents of New York, based on the existence of affiliate links from New York–based websites to Amazon. The state asserts that even one such affiliate constitutes Amazon having a business presence in the state, and is sufficient to allow New York to tax all Amazon sales to state residents. Amazon challenged the amendment and lost at the trial level in January, 2009. The case is currently in appeal process.
