摘 要:Content created from consumer activities like commenting and reviewing, on a platform often amplifies the intrinsic and commercial value of the content created by content producers. The chain improvement generates positive external effects the platform could potentially manage and utilize. This study answers how content-based platforms leverage such effects to optimize traffic management. We analyse a content-driven social commerce framework with platform-producer-consumer interactions considered and have four findings. First, we provide an optimal priority rule of traffic distribution: from high valuation to low and without leaving any traffic idle. Second, in the presence of such amplification effects, the platform will price traffic higher, but distribute traffic more conservatively. Third, the conservative sequential distribution leads to efficiency loss in converting content value to traffic price. However, greater amplification effects reduce the inefficiency loss. Fourth, intertemporal traffic pricing scheme is closely related to the platform’s social commerce type (i.e., consumer-dominated vs. producer-dominated), where the type of social commerce is related to the strength of network effects.
