The example of research I have been given is on Dubstep.
He has used different research methods, one being background information, giving examples in the form of screen prints, from sites such as WIKIPEDIA
He found out the popularity statistics using websites like doubleclick.com.
He used his own opinion and asked himself questions:
What is the history of this niche audience?
Where online does this audience hang out?
What peripheral interests are shared among this group?
What types of offline publications are there?
For this research he uses:
- Websites
- Record labels
- Artists
- Blogs
- Forums
- Radio Stations
- Magazines
He analyses how how people got to each website, using SERPs (Search engine results page)
Hi Kathryn, you may want to delete the page formatting on this, or rewrite into your own words, so it is easier to read
