E-Commerce Gym Website

Abstract

In order to grow their businesses, organizations need to reach out to a large number of people since E-commerce is growing rapidly. Therefore, they are developing websites that will serve as platforms for both customers and sellers, where their products can be displayed by the customer for purchase, and the website will include a payment gateway where the customer can pay for their purchase. The development of an E-commerce gym website requires an understanding of a number of technologies. In addition to client-side (front-end) techniques such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, server-side (back-end) techniques include PHP, NodeJS, ASP.NET, and relational databases. A basic website containing information about gym memberships and all things gym-related is the objective of this project.

Introduction

I. INTRODUCTION

The health benefits of regular exercise are well known, and they will assist you in improving your overall health. You will become fit and healthy by exercising regularly in a gym. There is nothing better than working out in a gym. In addition to the equipment, there are trained personnel and people to watch and meet as well. And nowadays there are various websites and apps which provide you with the gym membership and even monitor your routine exercises, which is helpful to the people.

E-commerce is rapidly becoming a mainstream business paradigm. Web sites that facilitate commercial transactions are being implemented by more and more business houses. Online shopping is becoming more and more common. This e-commerce gym website acts as a portal and a platform for small and big gym and sellers to register themselves to provide memberships to customers and also to sell their gym equipment like dumbbells, bench press, treadmill and different gym supplements like protein supplements etc. Our project is an e-commerce gym website portal that helps users to join our fitness gym. We discuss each underlying technology required to create and implement an e-commerce gym website. Members can register on the website, log in, and choose membership packages that suit their needs.

This system aims to digitize and automate processes. The system will handle Maintaining records of payments and other stuff needed to run the gym efficiently, such as adding new gym members, removing gym members, and more. Currently, gyms keep records on paper mentioned by them in a file. Every task of management is done manually. That makes the record keeping system unreliable and confusing. It is hardly necessary to maintain a system like this until a component needs to be changed. Description about members, trainers, and equipment can be obtained in the system easily using the digitization, As opposed to paper documents that require serious reading. Transparency between members is always good in any system. A layer of security will also be added to the administration as a result.

II. LITERATURE SURVEY

E-commerce is the facility to provide goods and services electronically, also known as e-business. The general public has only recently become familiar with e-commerce, which has been around for more than 30 years. Business-to-business and

business-to-consumer are the two major types of ecommerce. Electronic networks are used by B2B companies to conduct business with suppliers, distributors, and other partners.[1] Our lives and businesses continue to be impacted by the growth of the Internet. No matter what size or type of organization or firm you are, strategies and operations are being rethought. Businesses increasingly use e-commerce to gain competitive advantage. A vast range of topics must be understood in order to conduct e-commerce, however..[2] When comparing the current gym management system from the proposed system, This is a long way behind. Currently, all work is done on paper manually. Some of the work might be done with a computer, but it doesn't do exactly what it should, so manual labor is reduced.[3] These practices are not reliable as one wrong entry can take a lot of time to detect and correct.

Humans are prone to errors and tend to make mistakes often unless their computers have built-in error-checking programs. In order to reduce manual work, we introduced the system because the back end of the system syncs and updates the data.By integrating intelligence with e-commerce systems, we can now build e-commerce systems that are more efficient, have lower transaction costs, and have smarter information-processing patterns as cloud computing, big data analytics, and other burgeoning technologies continue to advance..[4]
