any product. Nowadays before purchasing anything the buyers do some online
research of the products on the internet. One of the major factors which lead to
purchasing of any product is cost or pricing. The buyers tend to compare prices
before purchasing any product. But since it is very difficult to visit each & every
website for price comparison, there needs to be a solution to automate this
process. The Price comparison website project proposed here gathers
information on product prices from various websites & presents it to the users.
The users can then choose to buy from the best options available. Even
Ecommerce traders can use this price comparison website to study their
competitors and form new strategies accordingly to attract new customers &
stay ahead of their competitors.
