Product Awareness
Product awareness is considered one of the key pillars of a brand's consumer-based brand
equity (Aaker, 1991). Product awareness can consist of consumer knowledge of brand benefits,
slogan, features, tag line and other elements. Keller and Davey (2001) describe building product
awareness as the way of ensuring potential customers in certain categories. Product awareness
is the information about the particular products a company offers, especially compared to those
offered by its competitors. Product awareness is measured through tracking studies and
surveys. Product awareness is the familiarity among consumers about the product which
includes both brand recall as well as brand reorganization.
Advertising Value
Advertising value is a benchmark for advertising effectiveness and “may serve as an index of
customer satisfaction with the communication products of an organization”. It is defined as “a
subjective evaluation of the relative worth or utility of advertising to consumers‟ (Ducoffe, 1995).
A value can be described as a specific conduct or state is personally-psychologically or
socially-culturally preferable to a converse in an individual‟s belief to a converse mode of
conduct or an opposite end state of existence (Levi, 1990). Social networking site emerged as
one of the most powerful media for advertising across the globe.
Informativeness
One of the main motivations for social media is the exchange of information (Muntinga, 2011).
Given the information-orientation of social media, it is very useful for the users of these social
media to be found to be receptive to informative advertising sites. The cited literature relates
perceived information value of advertising to consumers overall attitudes towards advertising. It
also said that perceived information value towards advertising is important for attitudes towards
traditional advertising. Social media has existed for years but has recently become one of the
most powerful sources of advertising and news updates due to the launch of the Internet
platforms Twitter and Facebook which provide the chance for social networking. Outlets of
social media include blog sites such as WordPress and Blogspot, micro blogging such as
Twitter, online magazines through sites content communities such as YouTube, and Flickr.

Social Media Advertising
Social media can be defined as “a group of internet-based applications that build on the
ideological and technological foundations of web 2.0, and that allow the creation and exchange
of user-generated content”. (Kaplan & Haenlein, 2010, P60). Moreover, Social Media
Advertising can be defined as “An online Ad that incorporates user interactions that the
consumer has agree to display and be shared. The resulting Ad displays these interactions
along with the user’s persons (picture and/or name) within the Ad content” (IAB, 2009, P4).
Advertising is a very important tool in the promotion mix for all kinds of organizations, usually it
refers to one-way communication in any mass media. The American Marketing Association
define it as “ the placement of announcement and persuasive messages in time or space
purchased in any of the mass media by business firms, nonprofit organizations, government
agencies, and individuals who seek to inform and/or persuade members of particular target
market or audience about their products, services, organizations, or ideas”. However, with the
development of the internet and online world, especially the social media environment, a lot of
changes happened in advertising, in its capabilities and functions which require a new paradigm
(L.Tuten, 2008, P2). Regarding L.Tuten (2008, P3-5) there are many differences between
traditional advertising and social media advertising. First difference is the form of media, while
traditional advertising tied with the “mass media'' include television, radio, print, or outdoor,
advertising by social media might mean both one-to-one advertising through permission-based,
and targeted messages, or it could be mass coverage using a display ad, when defining
advertising for online media, the size of the audience should not be used as a defining factor of
advertising. Second, traditional advertising must be paid communications, it is the fact in each
definition of advertising since this concept appears, on the other hand social media advertising
could be totally free and unpaid or it can be indirectly paid as the case in some aspects of social
network advertising like paid ads on Facebook. Third, traditional advertising has been viewed
always as on-way communication from the marketers to the target audience through some
traditional media, but with the world of web 2.0 it has become truly enabled for two-way or even
multi-way communication between firms and consumers, and this is the case in social media
advertising and online advertising in general. Fourth, traditional advertising relied on a model of
interrupting consumers' lives, but consumers accepted this interruption sometimes because it
represented a free tool to know about brands via television or radio ads.

Nowadays marketers are using social networking sites more and more to reach the
consumers and potential customers with their ads and promotional offers as well as
personalized messages. A previous study by Yaakop et al. (2012) suggested the various factors
that influence consumer’s attitude towards advertising on Facebook as perceived
interactivity,advertising avoidance and privacy. Another study by Bond et al. (2010) concluded
that social media advertising could have a powerful impact on consumer’s brand loyalty and
engagement. Forbes (2010) examined credibility, engagement and interactivity of three types of
endorsements: corporate endorsement, a third-party endorsement and social network
endorsement and found that corporate websites are most credible where Facebook is one of the
most trustworthy and engaging. As per the results of empirical study by Schivinski and
Dabrowsk (2014 )user generated social media communication had a positive influence on both
brand attitude and equity and that further leads to the purchase intention also. Engagement can
be promoted through entertaining and interactive posts, useful and relevant content, word of
mouth communication from other consumers, as well as extrinsic reinforces such as promotions
and giveaways. Social media, like Facebook and Twitter helps build relationships with
consumers to get product and brand related information (Smith, 2014). Haidaand Rahim (2015)
studied and proposed a model of social media advertising which suggested that being
informative is a predictor for both product awareness and advertising value while irritation
caused due to unwanted social media advertising creates negative impact towards product
awareness and do not add any value for advertising. Direct advertising by the firm is unable
unable to influence consumers towards brand whereas social media content by firm creates
viral response and attracts more customer in one go and generates more brand awareness and
brand attitude (Kodjamanis and Angelopoulos, 2013).Furthermore, some researchers found that
social media advertising have positive impact on consumers but some results showed that the
consumers get annoyed with the privacy and social pressure from online communities (Kelly,
Kerr and Drennan, 2010) specially teenagers doesn’t like advertisements on social media site
and try to avoid them. Sentil, Prabhu and Bhunaeshwari (2013), found in their study that
customers avoid advertising on social media and are not much comfortable with the content
shown by the marketers on those sites.
