The outcome shows 50.66% focus on the subject of headline, 46.67% focus on the subject’s related facts of headline, and 2.67% focus on the distinctive way of headline writing. Besides that, this study finds even though there is divergence among individuals, no one can completely escape from the influence of headline statement. By repeatedly conceptualization, this study develops five online WOM message headline types: benefit, index, emotion, valence, and complex.
