What is the difference in data tracking between an ecommerce marketplace and a singular ecommerce website?
Ecommerce Marketplace
An ecommerce marketplace is where many buyers and sellers can both shop and sell goods, so it’s usually called a two-sided marketplace. eBay, Amazon, Shopee, Lazada, and Rakuten are all popular ecommerce marketplaces. There are thousands of sellers and millions of competing products in marketplaces. It is harder to track prices from marketplaces because there are protective and regulatory measures to keep crawlers out of the system to standardize both the selling and buying experience. Marketplaces also use bot protection services and have security departments to make sure external marketplace data tracking doesn’t happen.
Ecommerce Website
An ecommerce website usually serves buyers/consumers where a particular business or brand is behind the website as the only seller. Custom stores built with e-commerce platforms like Magento, Shopify, Woocommerce, Prestashop, or Bigcommerce are all examples. Custom-coded websites also fall into this category. Because owners of these websites control their own technology or use shared technology passed through ecommerce platforms, the security or crawlability of these pages is much easier than the marketplaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I track prices on Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping?
Prisync’s Marketplace Data Tracking feature helps you view price/price changes, stock, and other information of your competitors and gives you a brief analysis in a single dashboard for setting smart strategies for your business outcomes across global marketplaces, eBay, Amazon, Shopify, Google Shopping, and more.
Does it monitor individual sellers within a marketplace?
Yes, Prisync’s Marketplace Data Tracking feature can be used to monitor individual sellers within a marketplace. There may be several sellers selling the same product, and you might need to track URLs from the same sites or hundreds of URLs for just one product. This means you can track competitors unlimited times in the same marketplace and see which reseller is offering what price under the exact same product listing.
Can I track the "Buy Box" price on Amazon?
Yes, Channel/Hybrid plan users can use Amazon channel configuration setting to track either the Amazon’s Buybox price or Amazon’s own offerings.
How does marketplace tracking differ from direct site tracking?
Direct site tracking means tracking prices from a retailer’s own online store. On the other hand, the marketplace tracking is to track multiple sellers and their prices listed under a single product URL on platforms like Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping.
