Article Preview

Abstract:

Microblog is one of the most important trends in Internet communication. But since microblog is a new phenomenon, we are still at the very beginning stage of exploring the ways and effects of marketing on microblog. The paper took Tencent enterprise microblog platform as example, using experiment to discover what kind of microblog text can effectively influence users’ attitudes and behaviors. It was found that advertising information can not significantly changed users’ attitudes toward the brand, but non-advertising information can significantly change users’ attitudes toward the company’s microblog, and ultimately change their attitudes toward brand. Some suggestions for business marketing on microblog were also proposed.
