Amazon.com Company Profile

Tuesday December 2, 2008

Amazon.com is a company that has always fascinated me. They seem to constantly develop new ways of getting me to spend money online, with things like customer reviews, offers to buy things together at a discount and their "customers that purchased this also purchased..." information. As a company, Amazon.com is a clever combination of marketing genius and technical complexity! My personal feeling is that Amazon.com really allowed e-commerce to become a comfortable way for many of us to make purchases online. In the years that I have been a customer, I have never noticed any technical glitches or down-time, which is amazing considering the volume of orders that they process.
