Other forms of research

.Experiments- The good things about doing experiments are that the results are hard evidence you have got them so you know that they are true and factual. The bad things that you could find doing experiments, could be that you need a lot of people to carry them out on to get good results and not many people will help you.


.Participant Observation- This is where the researcher also takes part in the activity, this could be good because they will get an understanding of the product and gain the full potential out of it. It could be bad though because they are biased to it.


.Historical Research- It is good because you see how a product has evolved over time to keep up to date with technology, you get the whole background and contacts throughout doing this research. A bad thing might be that the product hasnt changed overtime.


.Rhetorical Analysis- The way something persuades the target audience by "saying theyre ugly" to buy there products. It is good if they do it in the right way for example if someone on telly is explaining the bad things about their skin and then say but this cream solves everything you may want to buy it. But the bad thing is if it is done wrong by someone saying it in a different way.

.Comparitive Analysis- This is good because you get to see something as a whole and break down the good and bad points. It could be bad if there is not much difference between two products.

.Competitor Analysis- Gives a good view of the market what your up against what you need to be better than and different from.
