Abstract

This paper explores the different types of negative comments on an O2O beverage takeout platform to find the types of replies consumers pay more attention to and the types of remedies better impacting on consumers’ opinions. This paper employs eye tracking system to capture the eye movement trajectory and the fixation point of experiment subjects. By analyzing the sight fixation time, the initial sight fixation time and the number of sight fixation in the region of interest, it can be concluded that consumers pay more attention to the replies by the merchants to offer apology and compensation for negative comments based on objective quality and attributes of such comments. For the negative comments based on subjective experience and emotional judgment, consumers are more concerned about the explanation in the merchant replies. Combined with the results of the experiment, this paper puts forward corresponding strategies for dealing with negative comments, so as to enable firms to carry out effective online word-of-mouth marketing and establish and maintain a good corporate image.
