To achive these research purpose, the study conducted various statistical analyses using questionnaire of SNS users. The results and implications of this study are as follows. The characteristics of SNS, such as information provision, interactivity and convenience, all showed positive positive effects on the intention of purchase, and the size of the influence was shown in the order of convenience, information provision and interactivity, confirming that the convenience had the greatest impact on the intention of purchase. Based on the impact of SNS characteristics on purchasing intentions, the results of this study confirmed that all three characteristics of SNS, namely interactivity, information provision and convenience, are important variables in predicting consumers' purchasing intentions.
