Abstract
This chapter provides a theoretical analysis on the role of digital marketing, social media, and digital marketing tools and techniques (DMTT) in developing customer-based brand equity (CBBE). The chapter discuses different types of digital marketing tools and techniques. The review has found that the consumer's behavioural engagement with brands via social media has a positive effect on customer-based brand equity. Digital media has a positive effect on buyer's intentions because it creates a strong connection between customers and business. Web 2.0-based technologies let users create and collaborate and exchange information and values. This has further led to consumers participating in the process of production of goods and services, as co-creators. Customer engagement, co-creating, and sharing of information via online platforms enhances customer relationship and brand equity.
