Abstract

Currently more than one third of the world’s population uses the Internet to communicate. Social Networking Wepages (SNW) are a type of platforms that facilitates the information exchange. Most of the companies that create profiles on SNWs do so to attract new customers and retain the older ones. However, in the Coquimbo Region of Chile,there is no research about the effectiveness of the influence these wepages would have on products and services sellings. This research discusses a case study of the Facebook network of two companies from the main economic sectors in the region, “Callegari Automotriz” (commerce) and “Turismo Delfines” (tourism). After conducting interviews and surveys and a statistical analysis of the results, it is determined that companies in the Coquimbo Region do not use Facebook Fan Pages efficiently, losing opportunities to sell products and services.
