The risk or uncertainty perceived on a conduct (e.g. purchasing or consuming of a product, or using an information system) by the individuals has been traditionally identified as one of the main determinants of consumer behavior. In particular, the influence of perceived risk has been specially linked to high involvement products or conducts (Laurent & Kapferer, 1985) which imply a high value or concern for the individual, and that are usually purchased after long and careful consideration. In the specific context of e-commerce, perceived risk has been traditionally identified as one of the main barriers for Internet shopping acceptance and diffusion (Korgaonkar & Wolin, 1999; Goldsmith & Lafferty, 2001; Miyazaki & Fernández, 2001; Wu & Wang, 2005). However, the empirical evidence available regarding this issue is contradictory, and some authors have found that the influence exerted by perceived risk on consumers’ online shopping behavior may not be so relevant (Jarvenpaa & Todd, 1997; Herrero & Rodríguez del Bosque, 2008).

PurposeThe online shopping behavior is the outcome of the variety of attribution from product/ service offering to internet experience. The present study attempts to develop a complete product/service offering by exploring and examining the different combinations of online shopping attributes to provide the customized experience. Therefore, this study aims to fill the gap of customer desired experience and present scenario in online shopping behavior.Design/methodology/approachThe exploration of attributes pertaining to online shopping behavior was done by seeking theoretical support from different technology adoption theories/models and the Delphi technique, exercised with active participants of online and offline shopping. The theoretical and experience shared attributes were devised and social desirability scale (SDS) was used for eliminating the social desirability bias. Further, the questionnaire was administered online and offline during mall intercept. The Conjoint analysis was used to investigate the relative importance and utilities of the attributes and its levels individually and compositely at different levels.FindingsIn the context, brand loyalty, online reputation management and Web interactivity were found most relavant followed by e-WOM, perceived risk and price. The specific levels of attributes such as taking consumer advice, search engine optimization (SEO), perception-based interactivity, consumer message boards, product risk and discount pricing were the crucial in motivating the customers for online shopping. This research affords the avenue for the marketers to motivate and delight consumers to retribalize by the way of “e-tribalizing.”Research limitations/implicationsThe current study was conducted in confined geographical locations and limited in sample size; thus, the issue of generalization may prevail, but forthcoming researchers may exercise the techniques with better probabilistic sampling technique. The mass customization of the website features by comparing attribute orientation of customers around websites was recommended with the third-party certification to reduce the consumers’ perceived risk during online shopping. Finally, the different levels, such as Facebook fan page in ORM and Everyday Low Price (EDLP) in pricing may be considered for the future research work.Originality/valueThe research studies on online shopping behavior with Web interactivity, e-WOM, perceived risk, brand loyalty, ORM and price using a decompositional technique are scant. This study persuades the customers to go for online shopping by putting them in the almost real-time purchasing scenario. The study confirmed the need of people to retribalize through e-tribalization by the way of customization for the masses in the context of online shopping.

The appearance of Internet does not only bring changes to consumption patterns, but also to the business modes of companies, as a result of which Internet has become a perfect sales channel. When a consumer shops online, s/he might be influenced by a huge variety of factors. In this study, ABC model of attitude was adopted to investigate empirically the influences of website characteristics and external stimulus on consumers’ online shopping behavior. A relationship model was also established to compare the differences of consumer groups with different online shopping experiences.Using convenience sampling, a total of 818 valid questionnaires were collected for the purpose of this study. Based on their online shopping experiences, consumers were divided into high frequency and low frequency groups in order to compare their consumption patterns as a group. According to the results, the two groups with different online shopping experiences were significantly different in three relational paths. To be specific: (1) Compared to the low frequency group, consumers in the high frequency group is more significantly positively influenced by website characteristics along the affection path during their online shopping. (2) Compared to the high frequency group, consumers in the low frequency group are more significantly positively influenced by website characteristics along the attitude path during their online shopping. (3) Compared with the low frequency group, a more significant positive influence is found among consumers in the high frequency group between consumer affection and consumer behavior path. These differences in the consumer behavior patterns of groups with different online shopping experiences according to the research results, therefore, could be used as references for online shopping business owners in their formulation of strategies.

Since the beginning of e-commerce, trustworthiness of commercial web sites has been a constant issue, and, very likely, it will continue to be. When an online shopper cannot trust a web site where he or she intends to make a purchase, the online shopper would perceive a risk of transactional security and a risk of privacy of personal information. In regard to this perceived risk in online transactions, this study is set out to find the change in the level of perceived risk in Business-to-Consumer (B2C) e-commerce and to test whether or not consumers trust a web-centric company at their first visit to the companys web site. Two major findings of this study are that about one third of those surveyed for the study feel an increased risk in B2C online transactions over the previous year, and that absolute majority of them have never or rarely shopped on a web site they are not familiar with. It is further found that even an attractive deal cannot affect the risk-averse behavior of online shopping. From the findings of the study, it is concluded that risk-averse online shopping behavior is a manifestation of increased perceived risk in B2C online transactions.
