Abstract

The rise of electronic word of mouth (eWOM) is a big reason why people buy things online, especially electronics. We look at how people in Chennai City choose what to buy based on how easy it is to use the information they acquire via electronic word of mouth (eWOM). The study looks at a number of things, including as the utility, credibility, volume, and valence of eWOM, as well as the quality of the information, adoption, and intention to buy, to see how these things affect the ultimate judgments customers make about what to buy. We utilized SmartPLS for Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to look at the replies of four hundred people to a structured questionnaire that we prepared particularly for this study. This helped us learn more about these links. The results show that the quality and reliability of the information have a substantial impact on how useful and acceptable people think eWOM material is. The amount and tone of electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) also have an effect on how people feel, which in turn influences how likely they are to buy something and, in the end, their decision. The results of this study indicate how vital it is to know how people feel about electronic word of mouth (eWOM) and how it connects content elements with people's actions.
