Background of the Study:
Digital marketing has transformed the way businesses interact with consumers by providing innovative avenues for advertising, customer engagement, and brand building. In Ijebu-Ode Local Government, Ogun State, digital marketing strategies such as social media campaigns, influencer partnerships, and targeted advertisements are reshaping consumer trust and purchasing behavior (Afolabi, 2023). As companies increasingly rely on digital channels to promote their products and services, building and maintaining consumer trust becomes a critical factor for business success. The interactive nature of digital marketing allows consumers to directly engage with brands, providing feedback and sharing experiences, which can either strengthen or undermine trust (Babatunde, 2024).

This study examines how digital marketing influences consumer trust in Ijebu-Ode, focusing on the strategies that foster genuine engagement and long-term loyalty (Daramola, 2023). The insights gained will help businesses refine their digital marketing approaches and contribute to more transparent and trustworthy online commercial practices.
