| Tiivistelmä: | This paper examines Web-based (hereafter as: W-bd.) services (here as: srvs.) and the effects of three sets of factors: i. pre-purchase (as: pre-p.), ii. transaction-related (as: trns-rltd.), and iii. post-purchase (as: post-p.) srvs. on customer loyalty (as: c-lty.) in a business-to-consumer (B2C) environment. Based on the study's results, pre-p. srvs. supporting search and evaluation of products replete in e-commerce systems have limited effect on c-lty. Among trns-rltd. srvs., transparency of the billing mechanism positively impacts c-lty. Customers avoid any hidden costs associated with product acquisition. Post-p. srvs. consisting of support of order tracking, on-time delivery, and customer support positively influence c-lty. These findings imply that W-bd. stores need to pay more attention to post-p. srvs. in their strategy to retain customers. |
