Summary/Abstract: In the context of digital transformation, national brands have become a key tool for promoting small countries on the international stage. Digital platforms such as social media and messaging apps provide new channels for representing a country, shaping its image, and conducting cultural diplomacy. This study focuses on analyzing the blogosphere that forms the digital positioning of the "Georgia" brand across social media platforms. Particular attention is paid to the structure of popular blogs, content strategies, visual identity, and audience engagement. Based on quantitative and qualitative content analysis, the study identifies key branding practices and evaluates their effectiveness. The findings offer insights into how informal digital influencers (including bloggers and thematic communities) shape Georgia's image as a tourist, cultural, and investment destination.
