The number of social media users has increased significantly as internet access and internet usage has grown all over the world. As it is the case in any other field, raw data collected from social media platforms are now being transformed into information. Millions of pieces of content are posted every day on platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Moreover, the ability to extract meaningful information from such content has become an important field of research. This study reports a system for sentiment analysis, based on the data made available on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube along with RSS data. Logistic Regression, Random Forest and deep learning algorithm such as Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) are used to develop the classification model used in the system built as part of this study. Dataset is a new dataset that included data collected from Twitter, used was created and labeled by us. It was found that LSTM model provided the highest accuracy among the models generated using the training dataset. The final version of the model was tested on five different social media platforms and results are communicated.
