It is the social model mostly expected by modern people. Nonetheless, such a behavior model slowly changes the marketing pattern of electronic commerce. The high standardization of model toys facilitates the use and assembly.

Aiming at social networking site members of Taiwan toys, random sampling is used for distributing 420 copies of questionnaire in this study.

According to the results to propose suggestions, it is expected to help toy industry in Taiwan attract users participating in social networking sites with the characteristics of social networking sites to achieve the marketing objective.
