n the digital era, there is a trend that more and more customers are purchasing online. In my opinion, it has strengths and weaknesses for both shoppers and enterprises. I will elaborate on them in the following paragraphs.
Firstly
Linking Words
, it is very convenient and efficient to click online anywhere and anytime, especially for urgent buying.
Secondly
Linking Words
, we can compare different or competitive brands in price, quality, performance, endurance, maintenance, appearance and etc in a short period of time.
For instance
Linking Words
, if I plan to buy a printer, modal A costs RMB 900
coupled with
Linking Words
an automatic double-page function, compact in size, its cartridge needs to be changed after printing 1500 pages of A4 paper. Modal B is only RMB 600, but it is very ink-consuming, big in size with only a single-page printing function. I would rather choose the former one without visiting 2 brick-and-mortar shops.
Thirdly
Linking Words
, a potential buyer can acquire the 1st hand usage reviews.
While
Linking Words
advertising tends to exaggerate how good the product is. Real after-use comments are very helpful to judge whether it is worth purchasing or not. Fourth, quick delivery to your door. From the perspective of enterprises, doing business on e-commerce platforms with much lower costs, even without physical offices is a way to improve profitability, so they can concentrate on quality, service and marketing.

In addition
Linking Words
, a product looks beautiful on models doesn't mean it will fit you. The colour difference between digital equipment and real commodity is a tricky problem.
For example

disadvantage is cybercrime like a hacker evading your digital account to steal money or any other fraudulence that happens during the digital shopping experience. In conclusion, virtual shopping is increasingly popular in many countries with the advancement of science and technology. We must be aware of the demerits and keep alert on cybercrime when we are making purchases in virtual

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
