Abstract: Although the Internet represents great opportunities for businesses, some firms that are evolving in the luxury industry were initially reluctant to engage in digital activities. However, over the past few years, digital natives represent a main reason for these firms to start adopting online strategies. Specifically, reputation and image are inherent to the luxury industry, and with social media, they are considered the determinants of e-reputation. Using an online survey design, the authors find that the influence of reputation, image and social media on e-reputation differs based on the status of the luxury brand (traditional compared with modern) and that digital natives moderate these links.
