Blog marketing has become one of the major issues in eCommerce studies. Many marketers also put lots of efforts into their commercial blogging due to the highly interactive community features of such a platform. In this study, a 3x2 factorial design LAB experiment was conducted to examine the effects of blog type and social presence on delicacy blog viewers. The result of a two-way ANOVA testing reveals that: (1) blog type has significant effects upon blog viewers' trust toward blog, restaurant attitude, and purchase intention; (2) social presence has significant positive effects upon blog viewers' blog loyalty, marketing message recall, restaurant attitude, and purchase intention; (3) there is no strongly significant support for the interaction effect between manipulated variables. Implications and suggestions toward blog marketing are provided as well. |
