Abstract: Ecosphere consists of an extraordinary online shop- ping platform that caters exclusively to botanical and environ- mentally conscious people. The platform acts as a marketplace, which is entirely dedicated to products related to plants, and users are enabled to shop and sell various commodities, including live plants, seeds, gardening tools, eco-friendly accessories, etc. Those who sell their products on the platform get to present them to a targeted group of the most enthusiastic buyers, whereas buyers can enjoy a selected shopping experience with the help of their own preferences and complete product reviews. Besides the marketplace, Ecosphere also offers a lively com- munity hub where users can post their gardening stories as if they were blogging. Members are free to take pictures of their plants, ruminate on their growing journeys, and share tips, ideas, etc. with others. This type of functionality brings more users to the platform and results in a higher degree of their presence, not only because of interaction but also because of contributions of common knowledge.
