As also, Gomez et al. used the data from the EU member countries and found that B2C cross-border e-commerce contributed to reduce the geographical distance of the trade cost by one and third. Last studies have shown the cross-border e-commerce shorting trade distance and improve the easy trade.
While a lot of studies as example ( Gomez et al.) find the language barriers doubled the trade cost associated, because cross-border e-commerce have same infrastructure at the offline transactions.
Lendle and Duch-Brown calculate the consumer welfare from an across-boarder reduction in offline trade costs to the same level in E-Commerce at a whopping 29 percent on average. But Duch-Brown calculate it from lower price in cross-border trade. when the consumers are exposed to high risk in shopping online, as security transaction and logistics safety, they are likely to reduce consumer welfare.
Another study by Alaveras .① use the European Union data related the geographical distance between two countries was still a very significant factor influencing consumers in cross-border e-commerce platforms.

5.1 METHODOLOGY
5.1.1 Research Approach
Inquire about the philosophy is often the quantity or quality, or to receive a variety of strategies. According to this approach is the road chosen by a specialist to talk about and examine certain information. Determine the best way that depends on the cause of exploration is the study and research to go with his inquiries. Self approach which focuses on the actions and effects that are not measured on the amount, quantity, strength or repeat.
To test speculation, and quantitative investigation of a huge example is essential. In this review, anyway, we have used all of these techniques noted each of these strategies to be more predictable with the motivation behind this review.
