With the rapid growth of e-commerce and online buying and selling, creating and maintaining customer loyalty in electronic markets has become highly important both in theory and in practice. In this article, through the study of research conducted in the field of customer loyalty to a brand and integrating this research, a conceptual model in the field of "Electronic Loyalty" is presented, and then a brief description of the indicators presented in this model is provided. In the next section, strategies are presented for different companies to take action to foster customer loyalty, depending on the extent to which their activities are carried out in electronic markets.
