Abstract

[ES]Introducción: La popularidad de los influencers ha llevado a su uso por parte de marcas y empresas para maximizar su presencia y alcance, sin embargo, existe un escaso conocimiento de su estado y tendencias de investigación. Objetivo: Analizar las temáticas y áreas de investigación científica aplicadas al uso de influencers en mercadeo, proporcionando un panorama de literatura actual y futura. Metodología: Se realizado un análisis bibliométrico a través del uso de la base de datos Scopus y el software VOSviewer, aplicado a 1.067 documentos publicados desde el año 2000 hasta el 2023. Resultados: Los hallazgos se distribuyen en cinco corrientes de investigación emergentes: Construcción de marca, influencia estratégica, comunicación estratégica, comunicación persuasiva, y la transparencia ética del marketing de influencers. Conclusiones: Existe un cuerpo de conocimiento fragmentado sobre el uso de influencers en mercadeo basados en comunicación y gestión de marcas.
