The methodological basis of the research is the methods of historical, systemic and comparative analysis. Results: the analysis of modern geobranding tools and technologies used to create and maintain the image of the subjects of the Ural Federal District in the territory market was carried out, and recommendations for optimizing their use were presented. The authors made a special emphasis on identifying the specifics of the formation of territorial brands of regions using content analysis.
