Full textAbstract:
Bloggsponsing dreier seg om at en blogger mottar betaling fra en annonsør (for eksempel en bedrift) for å anmelde eller promotere annonsørens produkter i sin blogg. Til tross for at omfanget av blogging stadig øker (NM Incite 2012), finnes det lite kunnskap om hvordan en annonsør mest effektivt kan kommunisere sitt produkt gjennom blogg. Samtidig har markedsføringsloven bestemmelser som regulerer hva man kan foreta seg når det gjelder kommersiell kommunikasjon i blogger (Markedsføringsloven av 2009, §3). Normalt vil en annonsør se på slike bestemmelser som en begrensning av sin sponsorvirksomhet. I denne artikkelen vil vi analysere muligheten for at den kommersielt mest effektive måten å sponse en blogg på også er den samme måten som loven krever. Altså at bloggen er åpen om at den blir sponset for å promotere annonsørens produkt. Resultatene fra denne analysen bør være av interesse for bloggere, sponsorer og forbrukermyndigheter.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to treat bloggers as human brands and applies self-congruity theory to explore how actual and ideal blogger-reader self-congruity, combined with the blog’s functional congruity, influences blogger-reader relationship quality (BRRQ) and the blogger’s informational influence, taking perceived interactivity among blog members as a moderator. Design/methodology/approach – Using a survey of 372 female beauty blog readers, this study employs the structural equation modelling approach to investigate the proposed model. Findings – The empirical findings indicate that readers’ perceived self-congruity with beauty bloggers raises the bloggers’ informational influence, mediated by BRRQ and functional congruity. Actual self-congruity has greater predictive power than ideal self-congruity in explaining bloggers’ informational influence. Moreover, perceived interactivity plays a two-sided role because it strengthens the positive impact of BRRQ on informational influence but weakens the positive impact of functional congruity on informational influence. Practical implications – The findings should help marketers identify influential beauty bloggers through their presented image on their blogs to encourage readers’ acceptance of their opinions about products and services. However, when focusing on beauty blogs featuring high-perceived interactivity among blog members, marketers should carefully balance the facilitating and offsetting effect of perceived interactivity and identify bloggers equipped with superior BRRQ. Originality/value – Using human brand and parasocial interaction perspectives, this study contributes to emerging research on human brands and blog marketing and demonstrates that perceived interactivity is a double-edged sword in stimulating a blogger’s informational influence.

Full textAbstract:
In order to distinguish the importance of bloggers in the microblog of information technology, we proposed the concept of blogger's authority and developed the blogger's authority model. The four quantitative indexes including the basic attributes, social index, activity of the blogger and the quality of contents are used to determine how to compute blogger's authority. Considering the influence of blogger's authority on microblog heat changes weaken over time, we apply a time decaying factor to adjust the computing of blogger's authority. Experiments on Sina Weibo data comparing to the former heat algorithm indicate that the new algorithm is more effective.

Full textAbstract:
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to analyze the moderating effects of the social influence of the blogger and the extent to which the reader has experience of that blogger, on loyalty toward the blogger, via two variables: blogger interactive practices (BIPs) and blogger credibility.Design/methodology/approachA quantitative empirical study was undertaken to estimate the research model. Structural equations were employed.FindingsThe results show that blogger social influence moderates the relationships between BIPs and intention to recommend the blogger and blogger credibility; and between credibility and intention (to recommend the blogger and to follow their suggestions). Meanwhile, the extent of the reader’s experience of the blogger moderates the relationships between BIPs and intention.Practical implicationsThe present work offers criteria that may be of value to bloggers and firms in assessing the extent to which the blogger’s activities are effective in terms of achieving reader loyalty. The proposed variables are measured objectively online, using the Klout Index of social influence and the extent of the reader’s experience of the blogger (inferred from the number of bloggers followed by the reader).Originality/valueBlogs are considered a mechanism to manage information overload in social media, and they are recognized for their influence on the reader’s decision-making process. The study contributes to the knowledge-base by proposing two moderating variables of loyalty-formation: blogger social influence and the extent of the reader’s experience of the blogger.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Through analysis of empirical fieldwork conducted with British travel bloggers, this paper details a novel and significant investigation into the nuances of self-presentation and performances inherent in travel blogging work, through the lens of digital nomadism. Working with Goffman’s (The presentation of self in everyday life. Penguin, London, 1959) ideas of front and back regionalisation, the paper explores the distinct ways in which digital nomadism is performed by the travel blogger. Firstly, the paper highlights how performances of digital nomadism are integral to the successful self-presentation of the travel blogger as an aspirational worker. Next, it showcases how travel bloggers use performances of digital nomadism in the strategic complication of the front and back-stage of their work, in order to demonstrate authenticity to their audience. The paper then considers how travel bloggers undertake performances of digital nomadism, explicitly within the front-stage to aid in their overall impression management of being a travel blogger. Subsequently, the paper turns to discussions of how technology becomes utilised in performances of digital nomadism which flow across the travel blogger’s front and back-stage. Finally, the paper reviews how, through performances of digital nomadism, the travel blogger appropriates their own back-stage leading to issues of overwork and precarity. The paper’s original contribution lies in its use of the lens of digital nomadism to enable us to explore and reimagine the workplace performances of travel bloggers. In doing so, the paper is able to speculate on the nuances and motivations implicit in these performances, digging deeper into issues of online self-presentation, authenticity and place.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction. The development of online marketing in social networks creates unique opportunities for personal selling. Especially these opportunities are manifested in online education when they buy a brand of an expert with experience in a particular field. That is why a competitive space is being formed in the Instagram social network, where a personal brand acts as a product or service. Materials and methods. Studying the effectiveness of promoting a personal brand in social networks based on the Instagram platform was chosen to have great visual opportunities for self-presentation. As part of the collection of empirical material, two methods were used: a survey (N-200) and content analysis of three blogger accounts with high rates of activity and popularity. Results and discussion. Content analysis of bloggers showed that an algorithmic feed on a social network allows bloggers to control the content. To help them, Instagram provides statistical data on user reach, thereby capturing trends in the movement of the blogger’s audience. The main task of a blogger is to combine real and “virtual” images so as not to lose consumer confidence. A survey of social network users confirmed the importance of a personal brand for them. The survey also made it possible to identify the most popular audience requests that they expect from bloggers and their accounts: valuable reviews and recommendations, case studies and author’s solutions, storytelling, blogger’s reflections and motivating messages, live broadcasts, and stories are important. Conclusions. The results obtained underline followers’ high level of interest in the bloggers’ personal brand on Instagram. The study results show that the most significant number of those involved (those who give feedback and are constantly involved in interaction with the account) is where the formation of a personal brand is built to a greater extent on the emotional level of perception of the individual.

Full textAbstract:
Various transformations of social networks, in particular Instagram, affect the emergence of a new type of celebrities — especially bloggers and lead to a new format of relationships with the audience due to the features of this social network. A personal brand or in other words an image of bloggers is formed. These constructed images are quite variable and can change depending on the interests of the blogger himself or the requests of the audience. A special category can be distinguished — bloggers-experts who position themselves as owners of special skills or knowledge. Such expert experience is monetized within the framework of various educational products. “Expertise” and the process of its deconstruction deserves special attention to explain the phenomenon of creation and sale of training courses by expert bloggers who are gaining great popularity lately. This article analyzes the audience's perception of the blogger's expertise: what goals they pursue on the Instagram platform, how they relate to bloggers-experts and their content, what motivates them to purchase courses based on interviews with Instagram users who took part in such training courses with expert bloggers. We confirmed that expertise occupies a special place among the components of a personal brand. It is the link that allows bloggers to monetize their accumulated capital in the format of training courses. * Суд признал «экстремистской» и запретил в России деятельность корпорации Мета,которой принадлежит платформа Instagram.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines the influencer-marketing impact in the digital environment as one of the most popular lines of digital communications. The problem is the difficulty in recruiting a relevant blogger for promotional purposes. Methodologically, the study based on two basic psychological concepts: cognitive and interactive. The authors have conducted a critical analysis of scholarly literature and secondary documents and have addressed the concepts of blogger referentiality, identity and consumer identity statuses. The authors proposes and empirically verifies the hypothesis that the decision to buy an advertised product and the identity status of the consumer are interrelated. The empirical study was conducted using the author’s methodological toolkit, including an online survey using the Schneider Personality Survey. Based on the results of the study, recommendations are given for marketers to select bloggers for the target group of 18–24 year olds with different identity statuses in order to build a positive product brand. Suggestions for bloggers to interact with consumer groups with specified identity statuses are provided. Forecasts are given on the development of the influencer-marketing market, the demand for the blogging profession, the effectiveness of including the blogger’s inclusion in the company communications as potential partners, and the relationship between consumer engagement levels and social network.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to study the responses of young consumers to suspected covert and overt product-brand recommendations in a blog. Design/methodology/approach – Experimental design was applied to investigate the effect of covert and overt marketing on young consumers’ perceptions of blogger credibility and their behavioural intentions. Findings – Overt marketing had a negative effect on behavioural intentions, such as future interest in the blogger, intention to engage in word-of-mouth, and purchase intention. Covert marketing did not affect the intended behaviour. Neither covert nor overt marketing influenced the blogger’s credibility. Research limitations/implications – The study was delimited to a small sample; one blog, one type of product recommendation, and a well-known brand. Young, well-educated consumers with experience in reading blogs may be able to filter the brand recommendations and focus on the content of the blog. Practical implications – This study has implications for bloggers, companies, and policy makers. Although overt marketing is the most open and the recommended form of blog marketing, the study showed that overt marketing has negative effects. Therefore, bloggers need to carefully consider how they present a sponsorship. Originality/value – The study makes three important contributions. First, it answers the call for research on consumer reactions to covert (deceptive) and overt marketing tactics. Second, it contributes to blog marketing research by studying a case of suspected covert marketing where consumers do not know whether the blog is sponsored or not. Third, the study contributes to knowledge around young consumers, demonstrating that covert and overt tactics do not affect blogger credibility.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose Identifying important users from social media has recently attracted much attention in the information and knowledge management community. Although researchers have focused on users’ knowledge levels on certain topics or influence degrees on other users in social networks, previous works have not studied users’ prediction ability on future popularity. This paper aims to propose a novel approach to find prophetic bloggers based on their buzzword prediction ability. Design/methodology/approach The main approach is to conduct a time-series analysis in the blogosphere considering four factors: post earliness, content similarity, entry frequency and buzzword coverage. Our method has four steps: categorizing a blogger into knowledgeable categories, identifying past buzzwords, analyzing a buzzword’s peak time content and growth period and, finally, evaluating a blogger’s prediction ability on a buzzword and on a category. Findings Experimental results on real-world blog data consisting of 150 million entries from 11 million bloggers demonstrate that the proposed approach can find prophetic bloggers and outperforms others that do not take temporal features into account. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, our approach is the first successful attempt to identify prophetic bloggers. Finding prophetic bloggers can bring great values for two reasons. First, as prophetic bloggers tend to post creative and insightful information, analysis on their blog entries may help find future buzzword candidates. Second, communication with prophetic bloggers can help understand future trends, gain insight into early adopters’ thoughts on new technology or even foresee things that will become popular.

Full textAbstract:
The blogosphere shows the characteristics of a power law distribution where a small set of the bloggers (influentials) get the majority of readership and the vast majority receives little traffic. Blogger recommendation algorithms aim at finding influentials for recommendation, putting bloggers with limited readership at further disadvantage. These bloggers could benefit from mutual endorsement of each other with the eventual goal of forming strong local communities with broader readership. In this paper, we propose a recommendation algorithm to connect blogger pairs with the intent that once connected the bloggers would share a mutually influencing relationship between them. In particular, we compute bloggers' influence profile based on how much she influences her blog friends and recommend bloggers with similar influence profiles. We characterize bloggers into four different groups: global leaders, connectors, local leaders, isolates. Our result shows marginal benefit for isolates and significant benefit for local leaders. Our approach can be instructive in building intelligent recommendation engine for bloggers with limited readership to build strong local communities.

Full textAbstract:
Blogger motivations in general and motivations of religious bloggers have previously been studied, but there is a lack of studies specific to the motivations of bloggers who self-proclaim their Christianity to create a blog and maintain the blog. Forty-four bloggers participated in a self-administered survey questionnaire sent via email. They answered questions about their reasons to create a blog, original goals for their blog, and reasons to blog regularly. Motivations found in previous research were garnered from 11 studies, and the participants were asked to indicate which motivations resonated with them the majority of the time they blogged. They were asked to explain why the motive resonated with them. Results, not surprisingly, suggest these Christian bloggers were not motivated by the same motivations to the same degree as bloggers from previous research who are not vocal on their blogs about Christian, faith-based themes. The motivations such as community building, expressing opinions to influence others, or pouring out feelings and emotions do not seem to resonate as acutely with Christians as the motivations seem resonate with political- or corporate-oriented bloggers. Other motives such as documenting life, sharing thoughts out loud, entertaining self, or having a place to store their writings seemingly do not resonate with Christian bloggers as they do with other types of bloggers. These 44 Christians who blog are members of online Christian social, writing, and blogging groups, and are studied to see how being Christian might influence motivations for blogging, and explores reasons Christians have for creating media. This study also raises some interesting questions for future study such as why self-proclaimed Christians seem to have greater longevity for blogging than do authors of blogs with a non-religious focus.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – Blogs provide opportunities for bloggers to create. This creativity can attract audiences and generate commercial success for blog service providers (BSPs). Thus to obtain competitive advantage, such providers should stimulate their bloggers to produce creative content. The purpose of this paper is to adopt social embeddedness and creativity theory to explore factors influencing blogger creativity. Design/methodology/approach – An online questionnaire and an online embeddedness system are used to collect data from 353 bloggers, including data on their motivation, integration ability, structural and relational embeddedness and creativity. Hierarchical regression is applied for statistical analysis. Findings – Analytical results show that structural embeddedness and relational embeddedness affect blogger creativity. Additionally motivation negatively moderates the relationship between structural embeddedness and creativity, and integration ability negatively moderates the relationship between relational embeddedness and creativity. Research limitations/implications – This study applies social embeddedness to elucidate the relationships among quantity and quality of professional knowledge and creativity. This study also discusses the moderating effect of motivation and integration ability on the relationship between social embeddedness and creativity. Practical implications – Creative articles by bloggers can popularise a blog platform, as they can retain bloggers and attract new bloggers. Therefore, for BSPs enhancing the creative performance of bloggers is one way to obtain competitive advantage. Originality/value – The study contributes to knowledge of social embeddedness and creativity on blog web sites, and importantly, this study develops a model that explains how antecedents influence blogger creativity.

Abstract. Since becoming a "pop culture" for the millennial generation in sharing information and knowledge, social media has been able to open opportunities for culinary industry players, especially restaurant owners and food bloggers, to collaborate using social media to achieve mutually beneficial goals. Food bloggers uniquely connect restaurants and consumers through culinary product reviews, categorised as knowledge sharing. However, the difference in the motivation behind the knowledge sharing process raises questions about the practice of knowledge sharing that is carried out because of monetary motivation and non-monetary motivation. Following that question, this study aims to understand the motivation behind knowledge sharing activity and sustainability carried out by food bloggers as knowledge contributors. Using the phenomenological approach and method, this research was conducted by arranging interviews with notable food blog account owners on Instagram to explore their experiences as a food blogger. The phenomenological analysis is used to reveal the essence of their experience related to motivation to become a food blogger that encourages them to share their knowledge on social media. The study conducted found that the shift from non-professionals to non-professional food bloggers was due to the trend of reviewing food and requests for cooperation from other Instagram users. On the go, no food blogger has purely monetary or non-monetary motivations. Both motivations emerge and have their respective impacts. Monetary motivation allows food bloggers to experience knowledge-sharing process and behaviour adjustments due to cooperation with restaurant owners. In contrast, non-monetary motivation enables food bloggers to carry out knowledge sharing processes and behaviours independently.

Full textAbstract:
The global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak had a great impact on the tourism industry. Numerous hotels have ceased operations. Because of the increasing influence of blogs, various industries have adopted blogs as a publicity and marketing strategy. Companies utilize consumers’ trust and loyalty toward bloggers to effectively contact them. Hence, bloggers play a crucial role in the hotel industry. No past study has researched blogger selection by hotel managers. In this study, an innovative mixed multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) model including importance-performance analysis (IPA), analytic hierarchy process (AHP), and technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) is established to assist hotel managers in selecting bloggers. We firstly collect the selection criteria via interviews with hotel managers and a review of literature on blogger selection. Messages with stick are understood, remembered, and have an enduring influence on opinions and behavior. Hence, we also introduce the concept of stick to the selection criteria. Based on IPA and the literature review, a hierarchical structure for blogger selection is constructed. Then, AHP and TOPSIS are integrated to assist the case company managers to select suitable bloggers.

Abstrak. Akhir-akhir ini popularitas penggunaan konten blog berbayar sebagai salah satu marketing konten digital meningkat. Para peneliti menemukan bahwa terdapat lebih dari 180 blogger Indonesia yang menawarkan layanan blogger di platform sociabuzz.com per 2019. Pengguna internet sering merujuk pada review produk di blog sebelum membeli produk. Fenomena ini disadari oleh praktisi humas yang menggunakan blog sebagai cara untuk memasarkan produk mereka. Namun, belum ada penelitian terkait penerapan etika blog kepada pembuat konten blog berbayar di Indonesia. Penelitian ini berupaya menganalisis penerapan etika blogger dalam proses pembuatan konten menggunakan empat prinsip etika blogger oleh Cenite dkk. (2009) sebagai unit analisis untuk penelitian ini. Penelitian ini menganalisis pengetahuan blogger akan etika blogger dengan mewawancarai dua pemimpin komunitas blogger di Indonesia dan mengamati cara mereka menulis blog konten berbayar dan konten tidak berbayar. Peneliti mewawancarai mereka tentang proses pembuatan konten, proses verifikasi data, dan empat prinsip etika blogger, yaitu atribusi, akuntabilitas, meminimalkan bahaya, dan pengungkapan kebenaran. Peneliti menemukan bahwa atribusi dianggap penting oleh kedua narasumber, dan proses pengungkapan kebenaran dihindari dalam membuat konten berbayar. Disimpulkan bahwa kedua informan menerapkan standar ganda antara konten berbayar dan tidak berbayar. Abstract. Lately, the popularity of using blog paid-content as one of digital content marketing has risen. Researchers found that there were more than 180 Indonesian bloggers offering blogger services on the sociabuzz.com platform per 2019. Internet users often refer to a product review on a blog before buying products. This phenomenon was realized by public relations practitioners in which using blogs as a way to market their products. However, there has been no research related to the application of blog ethics to the paid blog content creators in Indonesia. This research attempts to analyze the application of ethics as a blogger in the process of content creation using the four ethical principles of bloggers by Cenite et al. (2009) as the unit of analysis for this study. This research analyzed the awareness of bloggers about the ethics of bloggers by interviewing two leaders of the blogger community in Indonesia and observed the way they write a paid-content and non-paid-content blog. Researchers interviewed them about the process of creating content, the data verification process, and the four blogger ethical principles, namely attribution, accountability, minimizing danger, and truth-telling. Researchers found that attribution was considered important by the two speakers, and the truth-disclosure process was avoided in making paid content. It is concluded that both informants applied a double standard between paid and non-paid content.

Full textAbstract:
Cultural tourism has an important influence on the development of the tourism industry. The travel experience stories of bloggers written through blogs contributed to the initial introduction and impact of other travel planning tours. It can also be used as a reference by tourism agents. However, the travel experience stories of these bloggers have not been structured as themes and memorable experiences. Whereas the core product of the tourism business is a memorable experience. In the perspective of narrative paradigm theory (NPT), a story or narrative is successful as a human communication capable of forming meaning, if it has coherence and truth. . Therefore, this study aims to reveal the narrative structure told by bloggers. So that the meaning and theme of the cultural tourism experience can be understood as a memorable experience. This study uses a qualitative approach with narrative paradigm theory (NPT). The research data as the unit of analysis was collected from the narrative stories of bloggers published on weblogs. Meanwhile, the principle of the grounded theory approach is aimed at uncovering the narrative themes of bloggers. The results of the study explain the narrative of bloggers in cultural tourism that is told through blog pages as narrative rationales because there is coherence and truth so that they form meaning as a positive, enjoyable, and satisfying experience. The category of cultural tourism that bloggers often visit is the category of cultural heritage, such as museums, temple sites, and old buildings, as well as local or traditional villages. The results of this study also found that a series of blogger narratives formed the theme of memorable experiences through cultural tourism, such as spirituality, intellectual national identity, and local uniqueness. Overall this research reveals, the rational structure of the narrative in the blogger's narrative explains the meaning of an impressive experience in cultural tourism as a positive, pleasant, and memorable view that tourists remember after visiting a destination that is categorized as cultural tourism, retold in the form of a story.

Full textAbstract:
Blogs have become an important medium for people to publish opinions and ideas on the web. Bloggers with interest and expertise in specific domains (e.g., politics, or technology) often create and maintain blogs to publish news, opinions and ideas about those domains. In this paper, we present Spectrum, a novel blog search system that enables users to search for different points of view related to a topic from the blogosphere. Given a topic, Spectrum retrieves blog posts from bloggers with interests and expertise in various domains, enabling users to browse and compare the opinions related to different aspects of the topic. To identify bloggers in a domain category, we propose a two-layer classification model that predicts bloggers’ interests based on short snippets of posts by the blogger and posts citing the blogger. The model characterizes the recurrent interests of bloggers and the importance of the bloggers in the domain. Experiments were conducted on a list of bloggers collected from blog directories, with their snippets collected from Google Blog Search. Categorization of bloggers’ interests achieves precision of 88.4% and recall of 84.5% by micro-averaging over all the categories, outperforming a baseline algorithm which directly classifies the bloggers’ snippets. We further apply this multi-perspective blog search to explore the ecological relationship between news and blogs. The system aggregates recent popular news stories and then automatically aggregates different points of view about those news stories in the blogosphere.

Full textAbstract:
The relevance of the study lies in the fact that Internet discourse plays an important guiding role in the functioning of modern society as a cognitive system; At the same time, the audience of bloggers reaches a significant number of people. Recently, the activities of Internet authors who promote their goods and services have become a serious problem for society. Bloggers promote their information products (courses, marathons, guides, checklists), the effectiveness of which is almost impossible to measure. The demand for information products is explained by the audience’s desire to change their lives for the better without taking any real action. The purpose of the study is to identify what linguocognitive mechanisms of influence are used by the author of marathons, Elena Blinovskaya, to create her promoting discourse on the Internet. Empirical research material – 150 blogger posts on social networks. The object is the Internet environment, the subject is linguocognitive mechanisms and their use by the Internet author to optimize promoting discourse. Research methods: content analysis, with the help of which fragments of discourse that contain linguocognitive mechanisms were identified and counted; linguocognitive analysis, which made it possible to clarify the content of cognitive language experience by establishing the relationship between knowledge and the method of its presentation. The results of the study suggest that one of the most popular bloggers actively uses linguocognitive mechanisms of influence. The found fragments of discourse contain linguistic tools of influence that manifest themselves at all levels of language (lexical, phonetic, syntactic, graphic). As a result of the study, cognitive mechanisms were also found: appeals to different levels of authority; the use of pseudo-statistics, affirmations, storytelling and many other mechanisms. It was concluded that the blogger’s promoting discourse has signs of magical thinking, as evidenced by the blogger’s dialogues with the Universe; hypersemiotization; emphasizing the importance of beautiful dates. The research perspective is to pay attention to the non-verbal suggestive mechanisms of influence that Internet authors use when creating their promoting discourse.

Full textAbstract:
In this article, which is based on twenty four months of combined online and off-line ethnographic research, I show the way that some Iranian diasporic bloggers use their weblogs as entrepreneurship resources during the ‘war on terror’. Through a discourse analysis of a documentary film about Weblogistan and interviews with diasporic Iranian bloggers in Toronto, I argue that Weblogistan is implicated in discourses of militarism and neoliberalism that interpellate the representable Iranian blogger as a gendered neoliberal homo oeconomicus. The production of knowledge about Iran in transnational encounters between the media, think tanks, policy institutions and the Iranian diasporic self-entrepreneurs, relies on gendered civilizational discourses that are inherently tied to the ‘war on terror’. Following feminist scholars who have theorized militarism and gender, I argue that dominant representations of Weblogistan produce different gendered subject positions for Iranian bloggers. Although the masculine blogger soldier takes freedom to Iran through his active participation in proper politics (enabled by his freedom of speech in North America and Europe), the woman blogger finds freedom of expression in writing about sex and telling the truth of her sex in a confessional mode. It is in this war of representation that women bloggers negotiate their subjectivity while shuttling in and out of local and global politics, as subjects of politics (markers of freedom and oppression) and political abjects (not worthy of political participation).

Full textAbstract:
This study proposes investigating the effect of food value on food bloggers' reviews (i.e., the direct effect) and the customers' purchase intentions (i.e., the direct and indirect effects) of fast-food restaurants. In addition, this study examines the moderating role of content credibility on food blogger reviews and customers' purchase intention relationships. The quantitative method is used in this study to gather data from fast-food restaurant customers in Cairo, Egypt. Where 450 questionnaires were given out to fast-food restaurant customers, 354 valid questionnaires were gathered for analysis. The data were analyzed using SPSS and Amos software. Food value positively influences food bloggers' reviews and fast-food restaurant customers' purchasing intentions. Additionally, this research found that food blogger reviews mediate a positive relationship between food value and fast-food restaurant customers' intentions to purchase. Importantly, this study discovered that content credibility has a positive moderating impact on the relationship between food blogger reviews and the purchase intention of fast-food restaurant customers. The study contributes to the literature on tourism and hospitality, where we employed food value as a decisive and influencing factor in improving food bloggers' reviews and thus influencing fast-food restaurant customers' intention to purchase. Thus, fast-food restaurant managers should create all the suggested food values because of their impact on food bloggers' reviews and customers' intentions to purchase.

Full textAbstract:
Weblogs, or blog, are rapidly becoming a mainstream technology in the information world. By June 2008, Technorati, an internet search engine, was indexing 112.8 million blogs and over 250 million pieces of tagged social media. Blogs allow millions of people to easily publish their ideas and millions more to read and evaluate and comment on them. When bloggers write things on their blog they became public. Although bloggers use blogs for many different functions and would likely provide many different definitions of blog (Stutzman, 2004), as we have seen, many bloggers perform journalistic functions. Therefore most moral code for bloggers is credibility in a journalistic sense (Blood, 2002; Dube, 2003), but they are nonprofessional without such code. Generally, blog audiences are built on trust, so bloggers should be honest and fair in gathering, reporting and interpreting information. For example, bloggers should disclose every benefit to any monetary (or other potentially conflicting) interests when appropriate. However, there has been almost no talk about this kind of ethics in the blog world. This study designed three ethical scenarios of blogger behavior against ethics code. Scenarios include blogger promoted her favorable food without disclosure conflict of interests, post other people’s entries without referencing material, and decoding other bloggers’ picture. The purpose of current research was to examine the perception of moral intensity and how the perception directly affected the specific processes of moral decision making of bloggers related to three scenarios.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose Reports show that 6.77m people published blogs on blogging websites and more than 12m people write blogs using their social network. However, few studies have explored consumer attitudes toward bloggers and their advertising. Therefore, an effort to discover how paid blog advertisements influence consumer attitudes toward bloggers and the products they advertise will help marketers gain an understanding of how to use bloggers as paid sponsors to influence consumer purchase intent. Using online survey approach, a study recruited participants (n=210) through an online survey platform (MTurk). The results indicated that the similarity between the consumer and the ad creator is an important psychological reason why consumers are more likely to perceive advertisements as more authentic, more affective, less deceptive and more credible, and they are thus more likely to trust the blogger. On the other hand, the importance of ad attribute (authenticity) does not significantly influence consumers’ intention to purchase products advertised by a blogger. As consumers are becoming more skeptical of advertisements, blogs need to be entertaining and a pleasure to view. Not only does the content need to be interesting, the design, flow and clarity of the blogs must also be considered important factors. In addition, advertising needs to be believable, credible and honest. In the online world, trust and credibility are still paramount in attracting consumers’ engagement; hence, promoting companies’ products and services through blogs can be an effective strategy to lower consumer skepticism barriers. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach Participants answered questions about their attitudes toward bloggers and their advertising when purchasing products in an online retail environment. Furthermore, participants also answered questions about their perceived trust in the bloggers themselves as well as the authenticity and credibility of the brand-related communication received from bloggers. Moreover, they reported on their attitudes toward how deceptive they considered bloggers and their advertising to be. Finally, participants reported how paid blog advertisements influence their purchase intent. Findings Similarity toward the ad creator is an important psychological reason behind consumers’ attitude toward blogs. Consumers who follow a blog often have the same interests and are thus more likely to support bloggers. This idea can be used as a segmentation strategy to reach particular consumers. Consumers who perceive similarity with the ad creator are more likely to recognize the ads as more authentic, affective, credible and trustworthy as well as less deceptive, regarding the blogger. Blogs need to be entertaining and a pleasure to view. Not only does the content need to be interesting but the design, flow and clarity of the blog are also important factors. Blog advertising needs to be believable, credible and honest. In the online world, trust and credibility are still paramount in attracting consumers’ engagement with the website, bloggers or social media. Originality/value Trust in the blogger did not influence consumers’ purchase intent; however, it did influence their attitude toward how similar they are with the blogger. In an online shopping environment, the human touch and personal contact between consumers and retailers has been lost. Consumers often leave the online transaction due to a lack of trust. Therefore, bloggers can be replacements for the missing “salesperson” in online interactions. Companies can use bloggers as the mediating person to reach their intended audiences, bridging the gap between the company and consumers.

Full textAbstract:
The study analyses the role of the travel blogger as a contemporary expression of tourism marketing. In the new digital reality, travel bloggers perform the intermediary function between destination and customer that in the offline world has long been performed by traditional tour operators and travel agents. The message of these influencers can be much more effective than the expensive advertising campaigns implemented by tourism organizations through traditional marketing channels. Establishing a connection between travel bloggers and tour operators, therefore becomes a crucial strategy for exploiting the potential offered by the ITC in the field of tourism promotion. Within this vision, and as an example of good practice, the study illustrates the digital platform "A blogger for Italy" which is one of the first attempts to create, at a national level, a structured network between travel bloggers and tour operators. The study suggests that travel bloggers can become ambassadors of territoriality especially with reference to places away from the usual mass tourism routes and for which a growing segment of tourism demand shows renewed interest.

In the study of an individual speech portrait, three aspects are distinguished: linguistic, social and behavioral. It is the linguistic aspect that is the subject of our study. The object of analysis in this study is the speech of the popular video blogger PewDiePie, blogger Nora Dunn and blogger ForReadingAddicts, the subject are the lexical and stylistic preferences of the speech of the English-speaking blogger. The speech behavior of a public linguistic personality is studied making possible to see the features of the personality's speech, hidden and explicit motives, communicative goals, and the features of communicative needs. A model for compiling a speech portrait is described and an analysis of the stylistic and lexical features of the speech of a modern English-speaking blogger is carried out on the example of the popular video blogger PewDiePie, blogger Nora Dunn and blogger ForReadingAddicts. As a result of the study, a model for compiling a speech portrait was described and the characteristic features of the speech of each of the analyzed bloggers were highlighted. The lexical and stylistic preferences of the analyzed personalities are revealed, the list of language means used by English-speaking bloggers is determined. These features are determined, first of all, by the target audience of each blog, the sphere of professional activity of the authors and, of course, the characteristic features of each personality, the level of general erudition and its social environment. A detailed analysis of the speech portrait is based on specific language levels: phonetic, lexical, stylistic.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this paper is to present a comprehensive methodology for conducting both traditional and modified content analysis using transcripts of spoken language from video bloggers as source material. The specific focus of this research centers around video content dedicated to reviewing retro automotive vehicles. The authors delve into two fundamental branches of pragmalinguistics, namely the implicit and functional aspects, while also detailing the analytical techniques employed within these paradigms. The practical application of these methods is illustrated using the oral speeches of the blogger Alexander Chikunov as a case study, providing a clear and tangible demonstration of the process for diagnosing individual personality traits. The initial phase involves an analysis of the material through the lens of implicit pragmalinguistics, encompassing the frequency analysis of speech patterns within the context of selected linguistic strategies, coupled with rigorous statistical data processing. The outcomes pertaining to a specific blogger are subsequently juxtaposed against data from other bloggers within the same genre, thereby facilitating the identification of shared, stereotypical, and unique personality characteristics attributed to the blogger. Moving forward, this article highlights individual traits of the blogger, which were discerned through traditional content analysis techniques. Finally, the study involves an insightful interpretation of the acquired data, culminating in the development of a nuanced portrait of Alexander Chikunov’s speech behavior. A notable aspect of this research lies in its pioneering effort to discern and systematize linguistic features exclusively found within the domain of video blogs. This is achieved by utilizing unscripted spoken language from bloggers as empirical evidence, adding a distinctive dimension to the study’s scientific novelty.

Expectancy theory is applied to construct a conceptual framework and identify key factors that motivate bloggers to create and maintain a weblog. A questionnaire was distributed to 177 bloggers. Our research findings suggest that bloggers with high motivational rewards have the highest levels of blogging intention, and that a blogger with higher blogging intention is willing to invest more time in maintaining their blog and posts more articles on their blog. Pouring out feelings and regularly connecting with friends and acquaintances were the two most important motivational rewards. Unlike news reporters, intrinsic rewards are more important than extrinsic rewards for bloggers. For the bloggers studied here, blogging is a reliable tool to ensure that people they care about have an easy way of keeping in contact with them.

During the last decade, the number of Indonesian bloggers has increased fast. This qualitative study aims to view the formation and development processes of Indonesian bloggers. It considers their structure, configuration and dynamics, either in relation to bloggers as an individual or as communities. The structure relates to properties that form a blog in the display format, where language as digital text-based is the most important property. Configuration explains the relation among blogs. Dynamics describe the processes that happen in the system. Our results show many patterns. There is a structure paradox in Indonesian bloggers' social system: they are culturally equal, but structurally stratified. To conclude, the processes of the formation and development of Indonesian bloggers' communities are an autonomous system building which still evolve. In this situation, Indonesian communities' blogger has a similar characteristic dealing with autopoietic system.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction. Internet marketing today is one of the most promising areas of marketing development in Ukraine. Blogging as a component of Internet marketing is actively developing and brings significant profits to bloggers. Since blogging is an economic activity, it needs proper reflection in the field of accounting and taxation with proper development of relevant provisions of domestic legislation.The purpos of the article is to analyze content marketing strategies in Internet literature using the example of the content novel «The Age of Glory and Hope» by Evgeny Litvak, to improve accounting and taxation procedures related to blogging activities, and to outline the prospects for its conduct in Ukraine.Research methods. In the research process, in particular, the following methods were used: analysis and synthesis - to study the object and subject of research; abstract- logical - for theoretical generalizations and formulation of conclusions; constructive and experimental - to form a decision with the help of analytical support; tabular – for a visual representation of the formation of pricing of paintings.Research results. The content marketing strategy was analyzed using the example of the network author’s works of «litweeks», it was proved that a successful marketing strategy allows you to get a good financial income, and therefore the opportunity to officially register your activity and pay taxes to the state budget. Prospects for the development of blogging activity in Ukraine are revealed. Procedures for accounting and taxation of blogging activities in Ukraine have been revealed. The main advantages for the socio- economic development of the state from the official activity of a blogger are outlined, and problematic areas in the formation of the official online business of Internet literature in Ukraine are identified.Results. The main provisions of this study in the form of proposals can provide a number of benefits for the official online business business in Ukraine. Staffing at the legislative level of blogger activity, accounting and taxation of bloggers is a significant contribution to the socio-economic development of the state, will help to increase the revenues to the state budget, harmonize the activity of the blogger and the employer and will become the key to social guarantees for bloggers. Increasing the attractiveness of the blogger profession will contribute to the development of this area of activity.Discussion. A successfully chosen marketing strategy (for example, Yevgeny Litvak’s writer’s blog) allows you to increase your popularity, establish a strong connection with the audience and attract new advertisers.If bloggers develop their activities and want to earn significant profits, they must account for the income they receive and pay taxes. An important factor in the cooperation of an advertiser with a blogger is taxation, which allows transparent reporting to the tax office and honest payment of taxes.During the consideration of procedures for accounting and taxation of operations and processes of blogger activity in Ukraine, it is proposed to add a separate KVED with the name «blogger activity». Changes should be made to the Tax Code of Ukraine and accounting and taxation conditions for blogging activities should be established.

Full textAbstract:
With the continuous development of online short video economy, the number of female consumers is also on the rise, among which many male beauty bloggers have joined the short video industry. With the female economy in full swing, some male make-up bloggers are trying to show their masculinity and reinforce female fans with mansplaining. The study, conducted on TikToks beauty blog Kaikai Next door, assessed whether his communication style reflected examples of male preaching from a body-theory perspective.The results indicate that Kaikai Next doors evaluation of the female body continues to be influenced by the male-centric gaze, while male discourse perpetuates the idea of patriarchal culture. This statement elucidates the influence of women and the limitations they face, while simultaneously acknowledging their capacity for resistance. When KaiKai next door, a male beauty blogger, uses symbolic violence and the patriarchal ideology of women otherization to construct a male online image of himself by using female consumers, it results in the oppression of womens living space and the bullying of womens self-worth. However, the qualitative study of only one beauty blogger cannot describe the whole social situation, but this beauty blogger can reflect some gender problems that do exist in society. This study is committed to providing help and reference for promoting an equal society, resisting hegemonic rule and defending ones own rights and interests.

Bloggers and journalists. On journalism, blogging and relations between themThe paper is an attempt to reconstruct the identity and self-description of bloggers on the basis of an analysis of their presentations in tabs like “About me” on their blogs. The reconstruction is carried out in the context of the identity and self-description of the journalistic profession. Its basic goal is to answer the question about the relations between journalism and blogging, especially in the context of the ethical framework of the journalistic profession and its social functions. The author concludes that these identities — of the blogger and the journalist — are fundamentally separate.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore how a change to a US policy about product testimonials affected bloggers and to understand bloggers’ perceptions of the organization-blogger relationship (OBR). Design/methodology/approach – This study utilizes a survey (n=173) with closed and open-ended questions, and both quantitative and qualitative data are analyzed. Findings – Bloggers’ decisions to accept compensation for a review may influence how much control they feel they have over the OBR. Qualitative data indicate that even as bloggers seek access to products to review, they prefer to maintain editorial control over the review process. Research limitations/implications – The study extends the transparency literature in public relations and relationship management theory by exploring the relationship between bloggers and public relations professionals through the lens of a disclosure policy. Practical implications – Recommendations are offered for public relations professionals in how to maintain transparent relationships with bloggers. Social implications – Qualitative data reveal concern among bloggers about efforts to persuade them and what they should disclose; this may impact the trust that consumers have in reviews at blogs. Originality/value – The study demonstrates the effects of review behaviors on the OBR and offers an organic explanation of how this relationship evolves. This is important as consumers are increasingly consulting blogs for product information. This issue also has relevance to public relations professionals, who are encouraged to broach the issue of transparency with bloggers.

Purpose: Although autistic perspectives are paramount for evidence-based practice and the neurodiversity paradigm, they are often underrepresented in research and have only recently started to get attention from professionals in different fields, including communication sciences and disorders (CSD) and foreign language teaching (FLT). To alleviate this situation, we conducted an exploratory study on the experiences of self-identified autistic bloggers with foreign language learning (FLL). Methods: We used deductive thematic analysis to characterize the bloggers and establish the perceived effect of autism on FLL. Results: Our analysis of 14 blog posts revealed that the typical blogger had an autism diagnosis, spoke English natively, and had learned Spanish or French as a foreign language through formal instruction and/or self-teaching. We also found that all the bloggers acknowledged both positive and negative effects of autism on FLL, with more bloggers focusing on positive effects. Conclusions: Findings highlight the need for professionals in CSD and FLT to (a) avoid making assumptions about the FLL capabilities of autistic individuals, (b) consult with autistic individuals regarding the perceived value of autistic traits for FLL, and (c) engage in interprofessional practice with each other.
