Research is the process of gathering information, evaluating it, and applying it to a question or problem.<ref>http://guides.maconstate.edu/research</ref> When writing for digital media, research allows writers to narrow their focus. Having a narrow focus makes a blog more interesting and the writer an expert on the topic. Web searches on [http://www.google.com Google] and [http://www.wikipedia.org Wikipedia] allow blog writers to gather more information on their selected topic, discover what other bloggers have already written, and gain more insight on their targeted audience. Do not limit research to online sources- articles, books, and scholarly journals can also be useful sources of information. | Research is the process of gathering information, evaluating it, and applying it to a question or problem.<ref>http://guides.maconstate.edu/research</ref> When writing for digital media, research allows writers to narrow their focus.
