Memons
& ECommerce
Memons have reached a new landmark in E-Commerce. They
are abreast with world in utilizing the modern technology of Internet and
all the scope that it provides.
Email communication, being the most common and widely
used tool on the internet, is so widely and adequately used that, at
times, it is no longer appears as a part of Internet Technology. Email has
acquired an identity and personality of its own.
All major Memon companies and organizations have been
quick to setup their own websites and opened a window to the world.
But still E-commerce, among Memons, is mostly limited
to informing and communicating. Online selling and monetary transactions
are in the rudimentary form.

Memon
Websites
A lot of money, time and energy has been spent by
enthusiastic individuals and welfare organizations to establish useful
Memon Websites.
Unfortunately, one criteria by which Websites are
judged is the traffic it generates. In spite of the enormous amounts spent
on promoting and publizing the Memon Websites, it is unfortunate that
visitors to Memon sites come once or twice and then do not appear there
ever again. The task of creating a "We Feeling" and a sense of
communal attachment and responsibility seems immense and, at times,
impossible.
Interactivity is a must for any community to thrive on
the Internet.
The Internet offers an immense scope for Memons to flourish
as a Communal Whole. We see and hear of such examples, of other
communities, every day and every time we browse the net.
I hope that the day is not far when this little
thought will be a reality.

When
to Use a Logo in a Web Banner
While displaying your logo may be essential for print and related media
promotions, the question of whether to display logos on banner ads
deserves a second look.
People react differently to ads on the Web than they do to ads in other
media. A logo in a banner usually screams "advertisement" to the
audience, and Web pages are already oversaturated with banner ads.
Visitors usually don't want to see ads when they come to a Web site. They
are expecting to find information or entertainment.
One of the most ineffective banners is one that contains a logo and a
company slogan. How does that banner ad benefit your audience? What reason
does the viewer have to click on it? None! You've just said in your
banner, "Look how good I am," rather than, "Look what good
I can do for you."
