However, insufficient research studies have been done in this field for the posting of content. The grounded theory was used in this research for a qualitative study. The analysis was done through interviews with 7 professionals and analysis of 500 commercial Word-of-month (WOM) reports in the internet. First, these findings can instruct businesses on how to manipulate commercial WOM to reply to postings on a website. Secondly, it summarized the commercial WOM criterion in reply posting and developed models. The result not only provides online forum managers with a reference for managing their website to harness commercial WOM but also to find out the difference of judgment criterion between commercial and noncommercial messages when consumers browse the Web. <a href=http://seo.kambasoft.com/ >seo</a>
