Sentiment analysis has grown rapidly which impact on the number of services using the internet popping up in Indonesia. In this research, the sentiment analysis uses the rule-based method with the help of SentiWordNet and Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm with Term Frequency–Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) as feature extraction method. Since the number of sentences in positive, negative and neutral classes is imbalanced, the oversampling method is implemented. For imbalanced dataset, the rule-based SentiWordNet and SVM algorithm achieve accuracies of 56% and 76%, respectively. However, for the balanced dataset, the rule-based SentiWordNet and SVM algorithm achieve accuracies of 52% and 89%, respectively.
