Research Methods

How is social media research conducted?

Social media research relies on a set of tools and methodologies that focus on extracting and analysing data gathered from the internet and all varieties of social media channels.

An example of social media research is aggregating social data that’s tied to specific events or issues. Social data provides insights based on behavioural, thematic, spatial, emotional and many other aspects.

Social media research proves to be a very useful resource for understanding how social media channels are used - from who’s using them to what people are saying. Social media research focuses on the idea of monitoring social behavior online - which includes observing the content produced on social media channels.
