Estrategia comunicativa de las empresas de apuestas deportivas en Twitter

Abstract

La popularidad de las apuestas deportivas ha aumentado de forma exponencial en España durante el último lustro, a partir de la regulación del sector del juego online efectuada en el 2011. En la actualidad, esta modalidad mantiene su tendencia al crecimiento y casi supone la mitad del mercado del juego a través de la Red. Además, el perfil de jugador que se interesa por las apuestas deportivas presenta una media de edad más baja que el que opta por otros juegos. A su vez, el nuevo paradigma dibujado por la digitalización de la sociedad y por la proliferación de los medios sociales ha motivado cambios en la industria comunicativa. La presente investigación se centra en el modo en el que las empresas de este sector utilizan Twitter para comunicar y relacionarse con los usuarios. De este modo, se examinan las funciones para las que emplean esta plataforma, se analiza la interactividad desarrollada, se evalúan los mecanismos utilizados para fomentar la participación del público y miden los temas más tratados. Para conseguirlo, se ha elaborado un análisis de contenido cuantitativo en el que se han estudiado 1621 tuits publicados por las cuentas de Twitter en español de cuatro empresas distintas: Sportium, Codere Bwin y Bet365. Los resultados indican que estas empresas utilizan Twitter para cumplir una función promocional y que conciben la interactividad como un mecanismo de atención al cliente.

The popularity of sports betting has increased exponentially over the last five years, thanks to the regulation of the online gambling sector in 2011. At present, this mode maintains its growth trend and it is almost half the market of the game through the Internet. In addition, the profile of the player who is interested in sports betting has an average age lower than others that prefers other games. In turn, the new paradigm drawn by the digitalization of society and the proliferation of social media has motivated changes in the communication industry. The present research focuses on how private sector gaming companies in this sector use Twitter to communicate and interact with users. In this way, it examines the functions for which they use this platform, analyzes the interactivity developed, evaluates the mechanisms used to encourage public participation and measures the most treated topics. To achieve this, 1621 tweets have been studied. These tweets were published by the Spanish Twitter accounts of four different companies: Sportium, Codere Bwin and Bet365. The results indicate that these companies use Twitter to fulfill a promotional function and that they conceive interactivity as a mechanism of customer service
