The online brand community has been so popular that brand managers regard it as a pool to increase the purchasing power, to attract customers and to understand the potential demand of the users. From previous studies, there was limited research on on-line brand community characteristics, including information quality, system quality, interaction and rewards, and on influence between community commitment, attitudes loyalty, and behavior loyalty.
