TO STANDARDIZE OR TO ADAPT: A WEBSITE’S DILEMMA IN THE CONTEXT OF ONLINE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION A Comparative Study of Unilever & Adhuli Website’s in the Bangladeshi Market Authors: Gul Hakeem Md.Nazmul Hasan Mälardalen University Academy for Business, Society and Technology EIK034, Masters Thesis in IT Management, 15 ECTS points.

A Comparative Study of Adhuli & Unilever Bangladesh Authors: Gul Hakeem & Md.Nazmul Hasan Supervisor: Magnus Linderström Date: 18 June, 2013 Keywords Web/Home pages, Online Customer Satisfaction, Standardization, Adaptation, Consumer Behavior, MNCs, Culture, Information Technology, Optimization, Unilever Bangladesh, Adhuli, Customer Relationship Management (CRM). i 6/18/2013 Abstract Background: Businesses, local or foreign, can no longer ignore the internet.

Purpose: The study tries to examine the standardization and adaptation effect and its significance in terms of its OCS value for a website through a comparative case study, between an MNC and a local vendor website with two distinct websites: informational and transactional websites. -
