Online shopping has developed rapidly in Indonesia since the Covid-19 outbreak, making potential customers frequently browse e-commerce. In e-commerce there is a social commerce construct which is a construction originating from social commerce such as online reviews. Depth from online reviews on a product cannot necessarily be trusted and prospective customers also cannot use other people's experiences as an assessment of product quality. Customer review also considers perceived value from a utilitarian and hedonic perspective. Therefore, this study analyzes the effect of perceived value on browsing behavior in C2C e-commerce with the antecedent depth of review in Indonesia. This study uses SOR (stimulus-organism-response) theory. The population of this study are individuals who live in Indonesia and have done shopping online in one commerce which has facilities online review such as Tokopedia, Blibli, Amazon, Alibaba, and JD.ID. Sampling technique nonprobability sampling by using techniques convenience sampling total 137 samples. The data collection method uses the survey method, while the data analysis method used is PLS-SEM. The results of the study show that depth review affects perceived utilitarian and hedonic values, and perceived utilitarian and hedonic values also affect browsing. Thus, all hypotheses are accepted, which means that there is an influence of perceived value on browsing behavior in C2C e-commerce with an antecedent of review depth. This research can be used as a reference for further studies by digging deeper into the effect of the depth of review on other variables that can have an impact on the viability of a seller's business in e-commerce. This research can be used as a reference for sellers to evaluate and create strategies to encourage customers to give positive reviews so that they can influence other readers when browsing e-commerce where it is hoped that purchases will occur. This research pioneered the study of perceived value of browsing behavior in C2C e-commerce with antecedents of depth of review in Indonesia.

This research analyzes the impact of a regional brand ambassador and social media advertising on the brand trust and brand loyalty of Lazada, an online marketplace in Indonesia, directly and indirectly. The statistical technique is SEM-PLS to analyze 100 data using convenience sampling. The results show that social media advertising impacts brand trust directly and indirectly, and only brand trust impacts brand loyalty, while the regional brand ambassador does not impact brand trust or brand loyalty directly and indirectly. It implies that Lazada needs to do in-depth research to analyze the right brand ambassador that suits customers' preferences and produces more engaging advertising content to increase brand trust and build brand loyalty.

The primary objective of this article is to present the findings of an experimental study on the use of a human-like “naturalistic” avatar (of both genders) for information presentations. The primary goal is to investigate how users' frame of mind, purchasing behavior, and satisfaction are affected by being presented with information by a naturalistic avatar that lacks expressive capabilities. Two different types of information presentations were developed and empirically tested on 48 participants, namely: (i) two dimensional static graphical and textual information presentation and (ii) non-expressive naturalistic avatar. For this comparative research study, a simplified version of the user experience model that was used in our earlier research (the EUX-DM) was selected to serve as the measurement model. Participants' perceived values of the measured qualities were found to be independent of both their own and the naturalistic avatar's gender, and the non-expressive avatar had a positive effect and a stronger encouragement on participants' intention to purchase, usage attitude, and satisfaction than other types of information presentations.

This study attempts to analyze the antecedents of e-commerce user behavior and their effect on future purchase intentions. Theoretical exploration shows that the antecedents used in the behavior of e-commerce users are perceived self-efficacy, perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. The study uses the behavior of e-commerce users as a mediating variable. The study was also conducted using a quantitative method, by distributing questionnaires to 250 e-commerce users in Indonesia. The analysis technique used is Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS software. The results show that perceived self-efficacy had a positive effect on perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. These three antecedents in turn have a positive and significant effect on future e-commerce shopping interest by using mediation of user behavior. The results are theoretically useful for deepening Technology Acceptance Model exploration by estimating future buying behavior and interest. Practically, this study encourages e-commerce platform website developers to increase the ease and usefulness to increase the positive behavior of users in purchasing products.

E-commerce as one of the most significant aspects of innovation in business processes is what takes place in companies across the world. The gap between information and communications technology and e-business application is called the digital divide. It is necessary to understand the reasons for the failure of commercial sites. Here the objective is to assess the commercial sites of Iran. Different methods are adopted to evaluate sites and electronic stores. The balanced scorecard is a rarely adopted method of concern to evaluate these sites in Iran. The survey methodology and Delphi technique are applied in building the research tools, which led to the development of a questionnaire. Through applying the BSC approach, the numbers of indicators in each of the four perspectives of BSC were identified. The DEMATEL technique is applied to determine the importance of different perspectives and to identify the causal correlations among the four perspectives. The results generated by SMART PLS graphics, the Structural Equation Modeling software, confirm the adequacy of this proposed model for websites. The findings here indicate that the growth and learning perspective have the greatest impact on the other perspectives while the other perspectives mostly affect the financial perspective.

Web services have become quite popular over the last few years as they allow easier development and integration of business applications. In this paper, we consider a web service pricing problem where two providers compete through dynamic pricing. Each provider offers access to a web service with different quality classes where users may buy their required web service through a reservation system. They would like to adjust the prices of their web services over a pre-specified time horizon to manage demand and to maximize profit. Users have the right with no obligation to cancel their services as long as they pay a penalty. We consider a dynamic setting where the web service classes share a capacity. We first develop a time continuous model for competitive pricing of a web service and then we provide some insights about the equilibrium condition of the problem using open-loop differential game and propose an algorithm to obtain the optimal pricing policy for providers. Moreover, we conduct numerical analyses to examine the impacts of some parameters on control and state variables.

The purpose of this study is to look into Jordanian customers' purchasing habits in regard to electronic commerce. The goal of this research is to investigate the impact of social media on electronic commerce trust and purchasing behavior. Trust's impact on social commerce was also investigated. Furthermore, the influence of social commerce on electronic commerce purchasing behavior has been studied in greater depth. This study proposed a conceptual model, which was empirically tested with a survey of 150 Jordanians. The study's findings stated that social media and social commerce had a significant impact on Jordanians' purchasing behavior toward e-commerce. Besides that, trust has a significant impact on social commerce. Furthermore, social commerce influences e-commerce purchasing behavior. Because the study was limited to Jordan, one of the primary limitations of this study is that the results cannot be generalized. Similar studies in other countries are needed to either support or refute our findings.
