For testing the hypotheses, an online survey was employed, using a convenience sample with 252 customers. Structural equation modeling with Partial Least Squares (PLS) was used to test the research model. Results show that all EWOM characteristics have a positive influence on perceived usefulness of the website. Moreover, only EWOM quality has a positive and direct effect on trust on online seller, and EWOM quantity has a negative one.

The results gathered suggest that a suitable management of the key elements of corporate identity (visual identity, communications, behaviour and corporate culture) contributes to the creation of an attractive identity for the University. In turn, this attractive identity will lead faculty staff to feel more identified with the University, and to more positive attitudes and behaviours towards the University.
