General Research Methods: Hidden News Moms Should Read!

When it comes to general information you are looking up where exactly would you start looking? Do you look in books, magazines, libraries or on the internet? Well, if you are looking for a rare piece of information I would suggest your library since they would have most everything they have already in there local computer system.

Looking there would be neat since it is filled with books and the old ones have that old smell to them. It is like taking a step back in time to when the book was written and you feel transported back to that very time.

But, the main way to research any subject at all is to research everything on the internet. This allows you to search through many sites like: public domain, government sites, wiki sites, and the thousands of search engines out there as well.

Do you have any idea what type of info your trying to uncover? Like the format of the information? Some want MP3’s or PDF’s. Yet others want Doc files or Power Point Presentations or maybe an excel spreadsheet? There are also maps, guides, directories and all of them are more then likely on your subject your attempting to locate.

So, what I am getting at really is you need a game plan to get research done really. You need to map out exactly what it is you are trying to find, what format you want it in like I outlined above. You need to know what you want to do with the information once you do find it.

It may seem like I am asking you for the moon here but I am not really. Research is not easy if you are doing it correctly. ;-) I should also point out that once you start with the general information and make your way down to something more specific that is what we call a Niche.

Drilling down to a specific niche is really what you want to do. So start out broad and keep narrowing down your focus until you get exactly what it is that you are looking for. You will be happy that you did just that once you find the information it is that you are looking for.

I bet the thought has crossed your mind about who the heck am I, exactly? I have been in one form or another doing this type of research for approx. 15 years give or take a year. I find it rewards and fascinating how I am able to be find something that people would not even try to find. This is my passion and I hope you enjoy it as well. The above should set you on the right course to drill down and maybe find what your looking for. I wish you the best of luck on your quest for knowledge.
