An evaluation of web site services in liner shipping in Taiwan
Abstract This paper empirically evaluates web site services in the liner shipping industry based on the service requirements of the user firms, i.e., shippers. The results suggest that shippers perceive tracing to be the most important service attribute of a web site, followed by customs response, vessel schedules, and electronic document service. Based on the concept of market segmentation, we employed cluster analysis to classify users (shippers) of web site services provided by liner shipping companies into four segments, namely support and performanceservices oriented firms, equipment information oriented firms,performance information oriented firms, and transaction services oriented firms. Theoretical and practical implications of the research findings are discussed.
