Abstract
The article discusses user-generated content (UGC) from the perspective of marketing science. It addresses topics such as brand relationships, word of mouth advertising, and consumer creativity. An overview of the development of UGC and its antecedents is provided, going back to the early 1970s, and the innovative aspects of UGC are analyzed in this context. Consumer motivation for engaging with brands through UGC is discussed, and it is noted that UGC can be a rich source of data about customer attitudes and preferences.
