With the rapid advancement of internet technologies and the proliferation of digital platforms such as social media, search engines, mobile apps, and email marketing, organizations now have unprecedented opportunities to connect with their target audiences in real-time and on a global scale. Unlike traditional marketing methods, digital marketing offers interactive, personalized, and measurable communication channels that enable businesses to build and nurture long-term relationships with customers. Customer loyalty, which refers to the sustained preference and repeated purchase behavior towards a brand, has become a critical focus area for companies seeking to achieve competitive advantage and ensure sustainable growth. The rise of digital marketing strategies, including content marketing, influencer partnerships, personalized email campaigns, social media engagement, and targeted advertising, has significantly influenced customer loyalty by enhancing customer experience, satisfaction, and emotional connection with brands.
