• If a manufacturer’s site does not have high visibility, just opening a home
page and passively waiting for customers’ access may not contribute greatly to sales. Therefore, it is necessary for companies to heavily advertise their Web sites’ address. Any cost-effective advertisement can be employed for this purpose. One may link the site to famous electronic directories, and most manufacturers need the directory service of intermediaries.

In contrast, electronic brokers only help the search process, for example, Internet Mall. The actual order is forwarded to a manufacturer or distributor.
