Corporate website
Corporate Website differs from a regular web page primarily by having multiple user areas designed for different target groups. Typically, a corporate site includes three such areas (or zones): a public zone (for all internet users), an internal area for use by company employees (accessible only via password), and a site administration (management) zone. However, the number of such “areas” can be much larger, depending on the company's structure and operations. For example, a corporate website of a trading firm might include an online store and a management module.
Company website
Business Card Website — a small website, usually consisting of several web pages, containing key information about a commercial or non-commercial organization, individual, company, products or services, price lists, contact details, and a feedback form.
Catalog site
Catalog Website — this is your electronic showcase, a catalog of products on the Internet.

Online store
As practice shows, half of Russia’s population regularly shops in online stores. Initially, there was some skepticism toward them, but today online shopping is a perfectly normal phenomenon that no longer surprises anyone.
What should be in an online store
1. Product Categories.
First of all, you need to think through what product categories you will have. This determines the structure of your website — whether you'll need a catalog with category pages or just a few categories without subcategories. Aim to have no more than 200 products per category, and create subcategories so users can quickly find what they need. If you have a lot of products but don’t want to create subcategories, then consider using Filters (see section H).
If you’ll have many categories, the Taxonomy Manager will help:
Social networks
Social networks, as excellent tools for communication and connecting people, are becoming increasingly popular. With their help, users not only find old friends but also make new ones.
Creating a social network is not an easy task. However, CMS Drupal allows for the creation of large-scale projects with high traffic. Drupal is built to handle heavy loads and is not limited in scalability for your social network. One of my areas of expertise is developing social networks.
Internet auctions
My primary goal is to create an online auction or electronic marketplace. This is my job, my hobby, my business, and my way of life. It's work that I truly enjoy. I build online marketplaces, exchanges, and internet auctions with enthusiasm, a relentless drive for perfection, and even a touch of fanaticism. For Drupal, there is a ready-made solution – the auction module – and I can easily tailor it to meet your specific needs.
Group Buying Website
Group Buying (GB) – is a term that refers to a public invitation by an Organizer for Forum participants to join in a wholesale purchase of certain goods with a slight markup in favor of the Organizer, who incurs the costs of collecting, buying out, and distributing the goods. In other words, it's an organized purchase of goods at wholesale prices.
GB is not a store – it is merely a collective purchase of goods at the manufacturer's price, facilitated by an Organizer who adds a small fee (the organizer's commission).
