Netnography-Driven Online Word-of-Mouth Marketing (1997–2008)

1997 - 2008

Interactivity, vivid web content, and contextual cues shift how consumers process advertisements online, shaping attitudes, telepresence, and persuasive outcomes. Netnography becomes a standard method for extracting insights from online communities and conversations, while online word-of-mouth emerges as a powerful diffusion mechanism for campaigns. Historical Significance: Foundational work in netnography and systematic study of online conversations laid the groundwork for modern relationship marketing and customer-centric branding, emphasizing ongoing digital dialogue as a strategic resource. The period also establishes early empirical grounding for electronic word-of-mouth and viral diffusion, influencing subsequent theories of branding, trust, and cross-cultural online advertising.
