Abstract:
With the development of information technology, E-business becomes the core competition of small and
medium enterprises in recent years. In this paper, we make an empirical test to analyze how the application of E-business
will effect on the business performance. The result shows that the E-business application index increased 1 percentage
can drive sales volume increased by 0.22 percentages, so the effect of E-business to SMEsâ€™ business performance is
obvious. From Johnson co-integration test, the result shows that there exist at least one direct co-integration relationship
between E-business application and sales volume, which means that there exist a long-term equilibrium relationship
between E-business application and sales volume in SMEs.
