China Internet Network Information Center (CNN-IC) released a report which shows that only in the first half of2011, China Weibo users grow form195million to63.31million. The emergence of enterprise microblogging marketing provides a new idea and microblogging marketing emerged.

Lots of enterprises ignore the "interest-based interaction" of microblogging as its the essential characteristics and fail to provide qualified microblogging contents to meet the consumers’need, and therefore they can not effectively use microblogging to enhance consumer relationship, brand awareness, reputation and loyalty. From the existing researches, it is discovered that the microblogging interaction between enterprises and consumers have a significant positive impact on consumer brand relationship, but as for the impact of the enterprises’ microblogging interaction strategies on consumers’brand loyalty mechanism has not researched by scholars yet.Based on the above issues, this paper Loyalty enterprise microblogging interactive strategy for consumers, carries out a in-depth study through questionnaires and empirical ways.

The main innovation of this study is:(1) Innovation on study variables. Overseas and domestic scholars have studied on microblogging and brand loyalty relationship for some time and have got certain achievements, but they basically concentrated on the brand communication strategy of enterprise microblogging and enterprises’microblogging interactions, and no research has ever focuses on the enterprise microblogging interaction strategy as the independent variable and brand loyalty as the dependent variable. Taking the enterprises’microblogging interactive strategy as independent variable is an innovation of this study. The research begins with enterprises’microblogging interactive strategy, takes the use of brand trust as an intermediate variable of the study, discusses how the enterprises’microblogging interaction strategy affects brand loyalty, finally points out the way of enterprises’microblogging interaction impacting brand loyalt, and provides a new perspective for future microblogging marketing study.(2) Taking brand trust as an intermediary variables to explain the enterprises’ microblogging interactive strategies on brand loyalty. The current study rarely combines enterprises’microblogging interactive strategy with brand trust and brand loyalty, most of the existing researches is to explore the relationship between interaction and consumer trust, brand loyalty. This paper argues that the enterprises’microblogging interactive strategy will first cause a change in consumers’ brand attitudes and then the brand loyalty. This provides a clear way to develop the forming microblogging marketing theories.(3) Verifying the effects of the two dimensions of the enterprises’ microblogging interactive strategies on consumers’loyalty. The existing researches show that microblogging interaction between enterprises and consumers have a significant positive impact on consumer brand relationship, but they give no answer for different types of interactive strategies influencing consumers’ brand loyalty. With a reference to Yan Xing’s (2013) article which studies on the classification of enterprises’microblogging interactive strategies, this paper will examine different strategies of microblogging interactive effects on brand trust under the same category, and further studies the impact on consumers’ brand loyalty.
