E-Services

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

e-Services or "eServices" is a highly general/generic term usually referring to the provision of services via the Internet (the prefix 'e' standing for "electronic", as it does in many other uses). It is true Web jargon, meaning just about anything done online. This page, for example, is an e-Service.

It can cause confusion when used in conjunction with "Support," as who knows the difference between "eServices" and online Support. It is often best to be avoided for this reason, especially in Website navigation.

e-Services include "e-commerce", although they may also include non-commercial services.

Non-ecommerce e-services include (at least some) "eGovernment" services.
