Creating an E-business website is not as easy as it seems. When building a website you need to have a model on how you want it set up. Once this has been determined, decide how you want the site to target your customers and is this going to meet your long term goals. Companies have decided to start an online business to save money and make it convenient for the consumer. We are going to look at three companies that have online business and do an analysis how the site is set up. Is there anything they can do to make their sites better?
Amish Hills Fine Handmade Furniture

The only thing I would change about this site would be having a better visual set up. The color blends in too much with each other and makes reading the fonts very difficult. Not everyone has perfect eye sight. (Wag'n Tails)
Scotts Lawn Services
Scotts Lawn service is designed with great professionalism. The sight was very easy to locate and I did not have to second guess if this was the site I was looking for. It is very easy to navigate and very informative. Unlike the other two the site gives you control of your account by becoming a member. Their main goal is to make your life easier taking care of your lawn all year round. The statement can be contradicting because grass does need stay green all year round due to the change of weather. This could be taken into account as false advertisement. The thing that adds value to this service is that you want
