Subsequently, the electronic catalog server provides the product order information including the order number to the member terminal that registered the corresponding product at predetermined cycles (2219).

Subsequently, the electronic catalog server generates and reconstructs the electronic catalog based on the order information (2220). The step 2220 may be performed based on a request of the member terminal receiving the order information, or may be automatically performed at a predetermined cycle in the electronic catalog server using products that record the number of orders exceeding the set reference value.

Subsequently, the electronic catalog server may provide the reconfigured electronic catalog to the terminal that registered the corresponding product based on the order information (2121) or distribute the distributed information to a plurality of terminals based on the distribution request information of the corresponding terminal (2122).

As described above, according to the present invention, the electronic catalog server may use the scrap information or the order information to reconstruct and distribute the electronic catalog to members according to a user's request or automatically. Consumer members browse the electronic catalog distributed from the electronic catalog server, and scrap the products of interest in the electronic catalog, and the product scrap information is sent to the electronic catalog server. The electronic catalog server extracts the scraped product information above the reference scrap value based on the scrap count of the received scrap product information. The electronic catalog server creates a new electronic catalog based on the extracted product information. The e-catalogue thus created is automatically distributed to manufacturers, vendors and consumers. Accordingly, manufacturers, sales companies and consumer members can learn information about popular items. Here, even if the same member scraps the same product several times, the scrap number may be calculated singly. Meanwhile, as described with reference to FIG. 22, the electronic catalog server may regenerate the electronic catalog using the order number and distribute it to members.
