Many websites nowadays allow social networking between their users in an explicit or implicit way. In this work, we show how the theory of argumentation schemes can provide a valuable help to formalize and structure on-line discussions and user opinions in decision support and business oriented websites that hold social networks among their users. A real study case is considered and analysed. Then, guidelines for website and system design are provided to enhance social decision support and recommendations with argumentation.
