Ebusiness - Subscription Model
Users are charged a periodic -- daily, monthly or annual -- fee to subscribe
to a service. It is not uncommon for sites to combine free content with "premium" (i.e., subscriber- or member-only) content.
Subscription fees are incurred irrespective of actual usage rates. Subscription and advertising models are frequently combined.
Content Services -- beyond newspapers and magazines, the Web has encouraged the use of the subscriber model for music
and video, as well.
Person-to-Person Networking Services -- are conduits for the distribution of user-submitted information, such as
individuals searching for former schoolmates.
Trust Services -- an independent third party that engenders trust between unfamiliar parties entering into a
transaction. The need of trust increases with the value and complexity of the product or service that is sold. Trust
services typically come in the form of membership associations that abide by an explicit code of conduct, and in which
members pay a subcription fee.
