여행 유튜브 콘텐츠 속성이 이용자의 정보 만족, 관광지 태도와 방문 의도에 미치는 영향

Abstract

As Youtube takes root in consumers' daily lives, travel content on Youtube has become a major information channel for a travel destination. Travel content on Youtube provides information to help users relive their memories and plan new trips. The purpose of this study is to propose an effective content marketing strategy by examining the effects of the attributes of travel content on Youtube on information satisfaction, attitude, and visit intention. To this end, a survey was conducted on Youtube users who had watched within the last 6 months, and 279 were used for analysis. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that attributes such as enjoyment, reliability, timeliness, vividness, and usefulness affect information satisfaction. Also, information satisfaction was found to have a significant effect on attitudes toward a destination. Finally, it was confirmed that there was a significant influence relationship between attitude and intention to visit. These results are significant in that the influential relationship on information satisfaction was confirmed by encompassing content attributes fragmented in previous studies, and the scope of the study was expanded by adding an attitude variable to predict visit intention. In particular, it was found that the attribute that had the greatest influence on information satisfaction was enjoyment, and that reliability and usefulness had low effects. These results suggest that emotional rather than informational attributes should be emphasized when providing travel information to Youtube users.
