Amazon.com Many online stores have started ... and have stopped again. The most successful online businesses are eBay, Yahoo. Google and Amazon. They have made online shopping popular. This is the story of Amazon. Jeff Bezos from USA started Amazon.com. He sold books on the Internet. He did not have a lot of money, but he had some very good ideas. He started the business in his garage in Bellevue, Washington, in 1994. A man called Nick Hanauer invested S40,000 in the business. This helped, but the website was dull and not very exciting. It was not a great success at first. A year later, a second investor, Tom Alburg, gave Bezos S100,000. This money paid for a better, more attractive website. From that time, Amazon.com started to grow. Bezos wanted to offer more than a normal bookshop. he gave online shoppers more than a good price and free postage. Today, visitor to Amazon.com can write book reviews, for example. When you choose a book, the site recommends other books. You get the message 'People who bought this also bought XYZ'. This and many other new ideas have made Amazon.com one of the biggest internet sellers of books, CDs and films. The site now sells many other goods, like clothes, beauty products, toys and electronics. Bezos has always said that what is good for the customer is good for the business. The extraordinary success of Amazon.com has shown that he is right.
