Abstract

The purpose of this study is to create a theoretical framework for analysing blogs as user-generated content. The theoretical framework for this conceptual study is created from the motives of users for engaging in user-generated content and the outcomes of doing so. The motivations for consuming and participating in user-generated content are social aspects, information search, entertainment and inspiration, and economic incentives. The motivations for producing user-generated content are self-expression, social aspects, information dissemination, entertainment, and economic and professional incentives. Discussion practices form the basis for the outcomes of engaging in user-generated content. The discussion practices in the context of user-generated content are social networking, drawing inspiration, sharing knowledge, providing peer support, negotiating norms, and opposing values.
