Can we influence the behavior of online shoppers through the inside layout of the online store? When merchandising emerged for more than a hundred years, many researchers have analyzed the influence of the point of sale on the consumer's emotional states and their buying behavior. However, although online stores are the ultimate exponent of self-service, there is hardly any research on e-merchandising. Therefore, an exploratory study is conducted in order to better understand the context of the research and to make an approximation to the variables of interest within the study area, which will allow e-commerce companies to know which e-merchandising techniques must implement for efficient business management.
