Analysis of Psychographic Indicators via LIWC and Their Correlation with CTR for Instagram Ads (2312.08235v1)
Abstract: The online advertising industry continues to grow and accounts for over 40% of global advertising spending. Online display advertising consists of images and text, and advertisers maximize sales revenue by contacting consumers through advertisements and encouraging them to make purchases. In today's society, where products are becoming more homogenized and needs are diversifying, appealing to consumer psychology through advertisements is becoming increasingly important. However, it is not sufficiently clear what kind of appeal influences consumer psychology. In this study, we quantified the appeal of the text in advertisements for health products and cosmetics, which were actually delivered in Instagram advertisements (one of display advertisements), by applying linguistic inquiry and word count (LIWC). The correlation between click-through rate (CTR) and the text was analyzed. The results showed that negative appeals that arouse consumer anxiety and a sense of crisis were related to CTR.
