After eliciting the ideas of the experts and specialists of the field in various related organizations, generalizing the Anholt national branding model to the national branding in social media, and introducing the decuple factors concerning the content in social media, a model was introduced and a questionnaire was designed to test it. After the reliability and validity tests, the questionnaire was distributed among 600 samples. In the final stage, of the 600 responses gathered, 384 cases were analyzed to test the hypothesis of the study via the inferential statistical tests of Fisher and Karl Pearson χ2.
