Abstract:

With the growth of the internet, a new dimension was added to Word of mouth, namely word of mouse. This paper introduces a new model that can serve as a framework for marketers, advertisers and market researchers for better understanding online word of mouse behaviour and measuring the effectiveness of a viral campaign. Results show that word of mouse has a significant impact on attitude formation about the brand and on the consumer buying process. Practical implementations for practitioners are discussed.
