Abstract

User stickiness is crucial to the growth of live video streaming platforms. The broadcaster is the most important individual in a live video platform, and this study explores the formation mechanism of user stickiness based on the professionalism of the broadcasters. An online survey was conducted in the WeChat and QQ groups to evaluate the research model, yielding 202 usable questionnaires. The model was then examined using structural equation modeling. We have found that the professionalism of the broadcaster can generate broadcaster identification and perceived value, both of which can further produce user stickiness. In addition, we also found that broadcaster identification has a facilitating effect on perceived value. Exploring the formation mechanism of user stickiness on live video streaming platforms can provide important practical guidance for managers of the platforms.
