In the following, the key driver is of E-commerce development:

1.internet resources

The internet consists of a vast array of electronic resources that people use to access information, to communicate with each other, and transmit data.

Business in particular identified the potential cost saving they could realize by using the internet handle business transactions. To start with, the internet is profoundly changing consumer behavior. One in five customers walking into a Sears department store in America to buy an electrical appliance will have researched their purchase online—and most will know down to a dime what they intend to pay. More surprisingly, three out of four Americans start shopping for new cars online, even though most end up buying them from traditional dealers. The difference is that these customers come to the showroom armed with information about the car and the best available deals. Sometimes they even have computer print-outs identifying the particular vehicle from the dealer’s stock that they want to buy.

2.intense competition

E-commerce provides an effective “vehicle”for companies to move to the international market because there is almost no geographical barrier in cyberspace. In other words, it is easier for a foreign company to compete with a local company under the cyber environment.

People can use FTP transfer documents and files from one computer to another via the Internet. The World Wide Web, E-mail, and FTP are all tools that people use to access information from the Internet.

As the cost of labor increase, there is a strong need for companies to look for

alternative ways to do routine work. This is particularly true in handing the myriad paper transaction once an order is taken. With electronic messages one can reduce this considerably; e-commerce thus provides an attractive solution.

But, as our country's geography, economic policy, the influence of factors such as the development of regional economy.
