摘要：The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between viral marketing strategies via social network sites and student image at the Palestine Technical University - Kadoorie. This research adopted the perspective of students who had daily use of the university�s portal and official website as well as social network sites, and developed and examined a model that could contribute to scholarly research on information systems and viral marketing. The quantitative method of data collection using a questionnaire survey was used in the current study. Structural equation modelling (SEM) through a partial least square (PLS) software was used for the data analysis. The results revealed that perceived supporting elements, perceived added value, and perceived cost reduction had a significant and positive effect on the student�s image about universities. The most remarkable recommendation was to snowball the use of social network sites in viral marketing. The theoretical and practical implications of this were discussed.
