Number of Pages 5

In a paper of five pages, the author reflects on word of mouth and e-word of mouth (eWOM) as they influence consumer behaviors. The current literature reflects the importance of social networking and eWOM as major sources of communication with the tourism consumer base. User-driven content can influence opinions and drive consumer behaviors, but both positive and negative messages can occur in the same forum. Subsequently, companies must recognize the impacts of the varied messages that may appear in user-driven social media, as well as the way it can influence different consumers. The research provides an interesting perspective on the challenges and application of eWOM. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
