**UNIT QUESTION:HOW CAN SHOPPING ONLINE BE MADE EFFECTIVE?**
=__**SKILLS EXERCISES**__=

** INVESTIGATION PART 1: **
===This websites talks about the sustains for medication for people over fifty years. This website talks about the diseases that might happen when you are fifty years or over and also talks about the percent of a disease one can have. It particularly focuses on cholesterol. This website is written by doctors and people in the pharmaceutical industry. The style of this website is full white background and black normal font handwriting with red colored normal font sub-headings. This seems not very interesting. I think it is not interesting because it only contains one picture showing tablets in a bottle. This can’t make one understand what they are talking about. Pictures may help you understand some information that you don’t understand in the writing. This website certainly is not interesting for me. Compared to the websites I look at the writing is so small and no pictures which does not draw the reader’s attention. There is also no links to go on different information and everything is one single page which makes it boring and the information is so long. To improve this I could say that the font should b a bit bigger and there should be more links for each part of the writing like the websites I used to be looking at now.===
 * The website I looked at for over 50 years is []**

**INVESTIGATION PART 2:**

 * **[|www.bbc.com]** ||
 * **CONTENT** || **There are so many colorful and standing out pictures. The background is plain white with other colors on the writings and on the pictures.

**UNIT QUESTION: How can shopping online be made effective?**
===**Shopping online can be made effective when the webpage is really organized and easy to navigate. People might buy things from a particular shop online because the color and the pictures which really standout can draw people’s attention the two webpage. The other thing is that the shop needs proper time delivery. If someone a product the shop people can’t sent it to them after a long time. One other important thing is that there has to be more advertising everywhere so that people can know there is a shop like this and the shop needs to have all the products advertised. The webpage and shop has to be genuine so that people get the belief on the shop and trust them to pay money. All the products should be in good quality and with reasonable prices. They cannot put it higher just because it’s online. All the products should have a minimum guaranty. Maintenance facilities must be easily available for all products. If all the products have the following features then it then the products in the online shop can be made effective.**===

**QUESTION NO. 1: WHAT DO YOU NEED TO SHOP ONLINE?**
===**To shop online you need a webpage that is easy to navigate. You also need a search bar to search the whole site and the products in different sections. Other than that you need a internet access and a modem. You also need a network provider. Another important thing is that you always have to make sure that https:// is on the web bar which means it is a cheating site. Another thing is that you need to pay the money; apart from the credit card there are also other ways like cheque, paying money after receiving the product, debit cards, electronic money and postal money order. You also need to know how you get your products and through which source. The are many different sources you can get your products through like downloading objects like music, movies and the like, the product can also be shipped to the country into the address or drop shipping which means the product will be given to another person who will directly get the product to the consumer. Another thing you need is to know whether the company is good and also the transportation is good. Before shopping online people also needs to know about the company; if they are true or fraud companies. People need to find out about all the reputations about a company; if they are good or bad. We need to know about the policies of a company to know how they transport objects to you and if you have to collect it from a third party. All the people need to know the security of the website to transfer funds through the site. People also need to know things like you need to use a credit card for fraud protection. People also need to record purchase details for further references or uses.**===

===**QUESTION NO.2: A shop needs to have a domain name to offer online shopping because if there is no website then people can’t shop online. The next thing is that the shop needs to add products so that people can buy products when coming to the site. The site has to choose a design so the webpage is colorful and beautiful so that it stands out and people can come and visit the site and buy the products. The shop needs to also put up more ads’ and tell the people about the site and what promotions or good things they have so that people trust the site and come to it often. The company has to set up shipping payments so that when people over broad buy something the ship can deliver it to the country so that people can go and collect it. The important thing that the company needs to have is profit for selling products. They sell something and don’t have profit then they are selling it for no reason. People have to first discuss the prices and compare it with prices in the other shops so they can be cheap but also get profit. One other important thing that the shop needs is the internet to put their site on. People think that Google is a website but it is not it is a search engine. The shop will need to set up a cable modem to the internet provider to connect. Then the cable translates the signals into the accessories needed. They will also need a router so that it can help people separate and save documents from the internet. Then their computer has to connect to the network. They can use a cable or adaptors to connect it to their computer and to get internet.A online shop needs a program like a store software suit because this is the software which helps the company to remove, add and accept the payments. Without this the shop can’t offer online shopping. This is the connection between the costumer’s order and the payment the shop receives. Then this is connected to the shops merchant account through a SSL(c) (hostgator.com).The shop will also need a merchant account so that it accepts the money the customers pay the shop. The shop’s software connects to the shops server and into the merchant account which sends the costumer’s credit card details. The merchant program charges the credit card and then moves the money into the shop’s account. During the money taking process the details might be encrypted for various safety reasons so the important thing is to get a SSL certificate. (hostgator.com). The certificate is like a bank account which is really safe and no one can take anything. Even if the details encrypt it will change into something which no one can understand which makes it safer. This certificate shows the customers that the company is really safe and does not let out any secrets for the customers bank account details.**===

===**QUESTION NO.3: There are many different types of hacking. First I need to know what a credit card is. A credit card is a hard piece of card which contains the following information like the first name, last name, address, city, state, province, zip code, country, phone number, CC number, expiry date and a three digit security number like a password. The main types of hacking methods are phishing and pharming. There are many other types of main hackers like the black hat hacking, white hat hacking, grey hat hacking, elite hacking and script kiddie hacking. The black hat hacker’s method of hacking is by getting into secure networks to damage the data or to make the people not use it. They choose their people to hack through a process called “pre-hacking stage”. ([|www.enwikipedia.org/hacking]). First the hacker sets the target to whose network to break into. They mainly choose people who are their enemies, any people with personal believes or they choose someone in random. Then secondly they will port scan the network to see if it is possible to hack and get into the network. The websites that will respond back to them will easily allow the hacker/person to get into the website and access it. At this moment of time the hackers will try to get some vital information so that they can access their system. The hackers use a method called “dumpster diving’ ([|www.enwikipedia.org/hacking]). This method is when the hacker goes and looks at the waste information to gather around some kind of documents which the people threw away which can maybe contain information a hacker can use straight or not straight which can help the hackers to get access to the accounts. At this point the hackers will find out what they want to steal and steal it. A white hacker is a person who breaks the security for his or her purposes and then looks at all the information and then tries to steal everything later on without them knowing. A grey hacker is someone who uses both the mixtures of white and black hacking methods. He goes into the internet and hacks into a particular computer system saying that their software is damaged. For example people might go to offices and tell them that they can repair their software or something else for a small amount of fees, so that is another way of hacking. Script kiddie hack is when a person who does not know even how to hack breaks into computer system’s by using a non-prepared tools by others with not knowing anything. It is called script kiddie because script means a person who dies not plan anything and does something and also kiddie means a person who does not know how to do anything; a kid. There are the two main types of hacking which are phishing and pharming. Phishing is a method to get other people’s personal information using fraud e-mails and websites. The person who does phishing is called a phisher. The phisher sends a fraud e-mail as of a business requests. For an example the phisher can maybe send a message to the bank to verify the financial data of their customers. The e-mail might sometime be made real by the people so that to the people it looks real so that it can be used for an official business company and the message always will have a link to the website that looks exactly like the banks real website for an example. Then when the person in the bank types in their password or username or credit card number for online shopping purposes the phisher senses the information which is then taken by the phisher. This information can be good for the phisher’s to steal money, to cause fraud e-mails to other people or security theft. There is a Domain Name Service server which allows the hacker to get that website’s information into another web site. The DNS serves are the machines which play the important role for concluding internet names into the company’s real address which are used and when the user whenever writes the name of the website into the website web browser which then allows the hackers to view their company’s web page. An example was in January 2005 a German teenager hijacked the ebay.de the domain name. ( [|www.pharming-phishing.com/] ). This is how all the people in the world hack people’s websites and the like and you have to be careful.**=== ===**QUESTION NO.4: To avoid getting hacked people must not write their passwords for their computers or bank accounts and the like In a place where no one sees there and also if you tell someone your password they people must change it after giving it because using the passwords he/she can hack your computer. It can also be dangerous for people to install or download third party scripts on the computer because the other people may hack your account. Another thing is that people have to make sure that their own computer does not have viruses. People must keep their scripts and people must only download latest download. People must not leave their scripts on their account that they are not using. During online shopping people have to make sure that there is a letter “s”, after the http://. It must be like https:// and also people have to make sure that there is a sign of a closed padlock on the web browser. People must always use safe search engines like google.com. They must not click on links with junks of information. The people must also use safe keywords to search safely. All the people must change their passwords every month which can help it to maintain security. Also that people must install or download firewall into their computers which threatens people like hackers and other hacker programs. They also have to update their firewalls regularly. They must also buy and update things like anti-viruses and the preferences on the software that it must be updated regularly. People must also make sure that they delete all the e-mails from unknown and unwanted sources. ([]). People have to disconnect all their networks when they are not using it. ([]). Everyone has to back up their data.**===

DESIGN STAGE

 * LAYOUT OF WEB DESIGN:[[image:bmisclass2010/MAHESH.jpg width="1840" height="1035"]]**

====**In creation stage I have to make y product by following the plan and design to make my product. After that I have to do a write up on the differences and similarities of the changes made in my plan and design I chose. **====

====**I don’t think I did not follow my plan because at first I exactly started and followed my plan. During the lesson I did not make it up to finish my written plan but I stayed back for break and finished it so that I follow my plan. On the next day I said I was going to finish my first page and I did finish my first page early and started my second page so I was really on task. On the 4th was really a good day for me because my plan said I have to finish my second page and start the page but I was really over my plan because I have actually finished the whole of my creation stage by the end of the lesson. I also wrote some more aims for the day because there was only two days left so I couldn’t finish my product and also my write-up. Then on the 7th I started my write-up and as it was a homework day I did half of my write-up at home and then decided to complete the rest in class on the last day when it is due. On the 8th in my plan it did not say test my product form different friends so this was one of the changes. So because of this I printed out my testing plan and then gave it to my friends and they filled in my table. I have written this change in other color in my plan. This is only the changes I made with my plan. Also on the 1st of March it was an holiday and I did not add it in my plan and because it was an i.c.t. day I had to finish my work at home, even though it wasn’t a homework day. **====

====**There were a few things I did not follow from my design 2 to make my product. One of them was that on the interactive buttons I did not put the same colors I put in my design 2 because there was no plain colors all of them were with lines or arrows with them so I just chose one with the underlined links with different colors. The other thing was that in my design it said the heading should always be size 60 but in some pages I had to make it smaller because the heading was long so it couldn’t fit nicely and it also made the other columns and rows go bigger, but I tried my best to only change maybe 5 sizes down or something. One important thing was the spacing between each links. In my design 2 the space between each link was same but when I made my product the spaces between the link 1 and 2 was so big because the title was size 60 so it made my column or row bigger. This problem connects to the one I mentioned above. Another thing is that in my design I wrote general pictures but I really did not get general pictures so I just put pictures of hacking and people getting hacked. One important thing is that my comments place had to be bigger like in the design I could only make much smaller because I information was so much that it reduced the size of the box of comments. Also the last thing is that in my design I planned to write the information in different boxes according to which type of information it is talking about but in my product I just made it one whole box because it would take up more space and it wouldn’t be easy for people to navigate quickly. I think these are the only changes I made and I hope I will get good grades. **====
