Abstract
The personal impression trough blogs - a study about personal bran-ding and impression management through blogs
Personal branding is a new phenomenon that is coming across different compli-cations.

Det personliga intrycket via bloggar - En studie om personligt varu-märkesbyggande och intrycksstyrning via blogger
Personligt varumärkesbyggande är ett nytt fenomen som möter diverse komplikat-ioner. Samtidigt som en person ska vara ett varumärke förväntas denna leva upp till sin egen unikhet. Genom bloggar har individer möjligheten att bygga upp ett personligt varumärke. Fram till idag har få studier gjorts som visar hur bloggandet påverkar deras sätt att resonera kring sitt eget varumärkesbyggande.

Personligt varumärkesbyggande är ett nytt fenomen som möter diverse komplikat-ioner. Samtidigt som en person ska vara ett varumärke förväntas denna leva upp till sin egen unikhet. Genom bloggar har individer möjligheten att bygga upp ett personligt varumärke. Fram till idag har få studier gjorts som visar hur bloggandet påverkar deras sätt att resonera kring sitt eget varumärkesbyggande. I denna studie har vi analyserat hur bloggare resonerar kring personligt varumärkesbyggande. För att förstå fenomenet har vi använt teorier om intrycksstyrning, personligt va-rumärkesbyggande, identitet och persona samt content marketing som ett teore-tiskt ramverk. I denna studie användes kvalitativa intervjuer som metod för att ut-forska bloggarnas livsvärld och resonemang ur ett sändarperspektiv. Studiens re-sultat visar att bloggarens reflektioner över sitt varumärke påverkas av dess upp-levelse av sina läsare online och offline. Studien visar även att bloggens besökare även har ett flertal andra funktioner för bloggarna så som motivationsfaktor, stöd vid emotionellt krävande stunder eller som en fientlig röst som förvränger blogga-rens intryck. Både bloggen som plattform och läsarna påverkar skribentens syn på sig själv och hanteringen av intryck. (Less)
