With the rapid development of the Internet industry, an increasing number of social media platforms have been developed. These social media platforms have become the main channels for communication among most users. Opinions from social media platforms provide the most updated and inclusive information. Sentiments from opinions are a valuable data source for solving many issues. Therefore, sentiment analysis has developed into one of the most popular natural language processing fields. Hence, improving the performance of sentiment analysis methods or discovering new problems related to these methods is essential. In this context, we must be aware of the general information relevant to this area. This survey presents a summary of the necessary stages for building a complete model to be used in sentiment analysis. For each procedure, we list the popular techniques that have been widely used in recent years. In addition, discussions and comparisons related to these methods are provided. Additionally, we discuss the challenges and possible research directions for future research in this field.
