This study aims to analyze the digital communication strategies implemented by the Provincial Government of Lampung in shaping a responsive and transparent government image in the digital era. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method, with data collection techniques including direct observation of the official social media accounts of the Provincial Government of Lampung, in-depth interviews with three key informants from the social media management team at the Department of Communication, Informatics, and Statistics, as well as documentation of uploaded digital content. The findings show that the Lampung Provincial Government actively produces and distributes informative and educational content, including government agendas, regional policies, and local cultural promotion. The content is presented in engaging visual formats, such as infographics and short videos, tailored to reach younger audiences. During one month of observation, the Instagram account @lampungprovgoid recorded 209,406 impressions, 5,089 interactions, and an increase of 395 new followers. Strategy evaluation is conducted through media analytics tools, public sentiment analysis, and regular issue monitoring.
