From Wikipedia: Price Comparison Service - History, Technology and Business Models

Many consider comparison-shopping to be the essence of the Internet. Search engines and social networking sites (the most utilized resources online today) display information based on simple queries. It is up to the user to determine which result(s) best suit their needs. In other words... they comparison shop.

Comparison shopping sites were initially limited to retail products, however, aggregators soon cropped up in some of the larger service related industries such as Travel, Auto Insurance and Mortgages. In recent years, "Niche" comparison shopping engines have appeared across the spectrum of services; including VOIP, Cell Phones, Event Ticketing, Dental Insurance, Student Loans, Prescription Drugs and Satellite TV providers... just to name a few.

Regardless of the product or service, CSE's provide a quick and easy way to funnel massive options down to the single best choice.

Although price is by far the main reason people comparison shop, ratings and reviews of both the product and seller assist consumers in making better educated decisions.
