- Unbiased by research process The primary nature of blog data is that it cannot be influenced or interfered with by the researcher. As a result, it is immune to many of the flaws and prejudices that many other methods of data collection, whether in-person or online, suffer from. The Hawthorne Effect is typical of these factors (Hartley 2001). Particularly under the influence of the Hawthorne Effect, respondents tend to embellish or offer information in order to win over the interviewer. However, since it is assumed that the blogger is unaware of the research when writing, blog contents are unaffected by the researcher. Sample limitations - Wide range of subjects Due of the medium type that bloggers must use as a requirement, the data sample made available through blogs may be skewed. An affinity to writing in general and to writing on a computer in particular is necessary for a blogger. It is anticipated that "tech-phobes" will not make up the blogging population, and that older age groups and less developed economies will have uneven presence. However, as was already mentioned, the population is blogging at previously unheard-of rates. Additionally, it is anticipated that as the population of people who are technologically literate grows, blogs will become just as prevalent and all-pervasive as mobile phones. Written by Name Style
- Blogs as a source of data A seductive source of qualitative data is blogs. This section examines the advantages and drawbacks of using blogs as a source of research data. Benefits Codified data accessibility and convenience The synchronous, time-consuming mode of gathering is one of the main issues with qualitative data collection. Typically, focus groups, observation, and interviews are used to gather qualitative data. The interviewer and the subject(s) must both be available for these strategies to work. Additionally, in order to capture all of the cues that are offered when data is being collected, the interviewer must maintain a high level of awareness and focus throughout the process. This places extra restrictions on the process of gathering qualitative data. Blogs, which are easily accessible in print form, provide rapid access to rich, codified data in a useful bundle that is already prepared for analysis. Blogs are more convenient and demand less time and resources because they do not require synchronisation between the researcher and the subject. Another source of convenience is the blog's content, which is frequently categorised by the author according to their choice of subject, attitude, or motivation. This makes it possible to access the most important information more quickly and easily. Written by Name Style
