The most important factor in getting the relevant information is asking the right questions. The right questions help the respondents to understand it and answer accordingly.

Consider a situation where a help desk technician receives a call from a frantic customer saying she has spilled coffee onto a keyboard. The technician in this situation should think and dig deeper for more information about the keyboard. The technician then instructs the customer to clean it with water, as the keyboard is easily replaceable.

Within an hour, the technician receives a call from the customer's manager, demanding to know who suggested putting water on an expensive brand new laptop. The technician in this situation should have asked for more information about the keyboard, such as the brand, its specifications and so forth.

Looking at screen-scraping at a simplified level, there are two primary stages involved: data discovery and data extraction. Data discovery deals with navigating a web site to arrive at the pages containing the data you want, and data extraction deals with actually pulling that data off of those pages. Generally when people think of screen-scraping they focus on the data extraction portion of the process, but my experience has been that data discovery is often the more difficult of the two.

The data discovery step in screen-scraping might be as simple as requesting a single URL. For example, you might just need to go to the home page of a site and extract out the latest news headlines. On the other side of the spectrum, data discovery may involve logging in to a web site, traversing a series of pages in order to get needed cookies, submitting a POST request on a search form, traversing through search results pages, and finally following all of the “details” links within the search results pages to get to the data you’re actually after. In cases of the former a simple Perl script would often work just fine. For anything much more complex than that, though, a commercial screen-scraping tool can be an incredible time-saver. Especially for sites that require logging in, writing code to handle screen-scraping can be a nightmare when it comes to dealing with cookies and such.

Do you know how to best plan your next poster printing project so that the resulting ad appeals to your potential customers?

Market research is a critical component of any marketing strategy. There are many expensive sources of customer information available today. But, if you don’t have a large marketing budget for market research, what can you do? There a four easy and inexpensive ways to gather marketing data by using your existing customer base.

You will start with the commitment to collect data constantly.

1. The Constant Thirst for Customer Information

Every customer and every prospect represent an opportunity to discover what your larger market wants and needs. But you have to be on your toes! In addition to selling your product, you need to be focused upon collecting data also. This will only happen if you understand and value what customer data can do for you.

Every time a prospect or client talks to you on the telephone or visits your web site, use the opportunity. Prompt customers or visitors to tell you more about their needs. Make certain you have a feedback form that is easy for them to use. It should also have an incentive attached so they will take the time to provide you with valuable information. That incentive might be a discount off a next purchase or an entry into a drawing for one of your products.

Data analytics uses scientific tools to analyze data in order to draw conclusions. Almost all industry verticals are using data analytics as a tool in order to make better business decisions. Often data analytics is misunderstood as data mining but focus and purpose for both are different.
While data mining is all about sorting through huge databases in order to set up hidden relationships and identify patterns which are not revealed, data analytics focuses on obtaining conclusion.
The science of Data Analysis is generally divided into:
Exploratory data analysis: where new features in the data are discovered.
Confirmatory data analysis: where existing hypotheses are proven true or false.

In order to draw conclusions from non-numerical data like words, photographs or video, Qualitative analysis is used.

I just love the so called political correct terminology used today. How they decide it's really a political correct term is beyond me. Why don't they call it what it is; misleading terminology, whitewashing, sugar coating. Example: collaterial damage ie. innocent people fatally killed in the wake of combat.

Now the new term for collecting information on people to compile marketing lists so that we can all receive more junk mail, marketing phone calls and faxes is a cute little term called Data Mining.

This is a quote from a banking website on the subject:
Let me try to clarify this. We are wanting to contact our commercial customers' payors that do not bank with us. We would get the information off their checks when our commercial customers deposit them. For example, I use ABC Cleaners and pay by check but I bank at a different bank than the Cleaners. The Cleaner's bank would take my information off my check to contact me.

A very important stage of the research design is collecting information. There are countless decisions which the researcher must make in terms of how information can be collected for a survey. The choice greatly depends on the question being asked by the researcher and the object which is being researched. The choice of a type of approach often depends on the chosen type of information to collect: qualitative or quantitative. There are a number of distinctions between these approaches. Quantitative data is concentrated on quantity, while qualitative data is focused on the quality of a logical structure. Other researchers suggest the research to be directly connected with the hypotheses we have about ontology, human nature and epistemology. However, data collection can be of two kinds.

The first kind of data collection is Primary Data. It is the original information gathered by a researcher himself. This information is direct, authoritative and not exerted by the influence of anyone’s point of view. The second kind is called Secondary Data. Despite that a research will probably be grounded on the original information collected by the researcher (primary data), the researcher must become acquainted with secondary sources.

The World Wide Web is home to millions and trillions of web pages that continue to expand by the second. The web pages contain quality information and resources on extensive genres from across the world. Since Internet came into existence, it has evolved and developed into an international platform that offers tremendous business opportunities to the corporate world. Businesses across the world make use of internet as a powerful alternate sales channel for their proceedings and fuel their advertising, promotions, sales and marketing efforts through it. At present, online businesses are flourishing and recording immense financial growth.

Importance of Data
As the Internet continues to grow and evolve, so is the importance of data mining functions strengthened. Since data is what makes up the internet, it is what decides the success factor online. Data is a crucial aspect of all businesses whatever their prime objectives are. This is because without data, there would be no record of business proceedings and there would be no ground on which to base marketing decisions on. Data provides crucial information about the market and the audience and also tells what would work and what would fail. Quality information fuels successful business decisions and the same time poor data results in unproductive business endeavors.

Probably the most common technique used traditionally to extract data from web pages this is to cook up some regular expressions that match the pieces you want (e.g., URL's and link titles). Our screen-scraper software actually started out as an application written in Perl for this very reason. In addition to regular expressions, you might also use some code written in something like Java or Active Server Pages to parse out larger chunks of text. Using raw regular expressions to pull out the data can be a little intimidating to the uninitiated, and can get a bit messy when a script contains a lot of them. At the same time, if you're already familiar with regular expressions, and your scraping project is relatively small, they can be a great solution.

Other techniques for getting the data out can get very sophisticated as algorithms that make use of artificial intelligence and such are applied to the page. Some programs will actually analyze the semantic content of an HTML page, then intelligently pull out the pieces that are of interest. Still other approaches deal with developing "ontologies", or hierarchical vocabularies intended to represent the content domain.

There are a number of companies (including our own) that offer commercial applications specifically intended to do screen-scraping. The applications vary quite a bit, but for medium to large-sized projects they're often a good solution. Each one will have its own learning curve, so you should plan on taking time to learn the ins and outs of a new application.

Shakespeare, what a line and iconic presentation those words have become of human dilemma, the significance of work of literature is beyond doubt a great task.

Some literary works find preservation at time irrelevant owing to the fact that nothing suppresses them and they become a statement of times people lived in.

In modern age, the twenty first century, the preservation of books, literary masterpieces have become a major venture for even the giant corporate such as “Microsoft” and “Google”;

Patents are not new, their presence was noted long back during 16th Centaury. In U.S. at the Constitutional Convention of 1787, a federal patent power was proposed by James Madison and Charles Pinckney and was adopted without debate as Article 1, Sec. 8, clause 8. The history of Patent Law began all the way back with the Constitution of the United States which was specific about providing protection for those who invent new and unique products. But after the TRIPS, intellectual property rights and patents gained importance to the business communities and industries. The retrieval of the patent information was made easy by internet and access to different patent databases. Patent are the source of the technological innovation and detailed mining of patent literature is proven to be useful of the Completive Intelligence.

This article is meant to be a brief review and reminder of some valuable yet often bypassed techniques to collect data on international markets and consumers.

When thinking of market research, surveys are most likely the first technique that comes to ones mind. However, surveys are a quantitative research and, in order to understand customer behavior and the social and cultural context in which our business will operate, we will need to perform some qualitative research as well.

Qualitative methods are most certainly a more appropriate option when in need of researching patterns and attitudes in customer behavior, understand the depth of the environment around the customer, and understand the cultural characteristics then influence a customer – especially when the marketer is not familiar with the country of culture.

Web mining, an extension of data mining implies employing the techniques of data mining to documents on the Internet. Web mining is used to study various aspects of a website and recognize the relationships and patterns in user behavior in order to get an insight into crucial information. For example, if you have to improve the accessibility quotient of your website, you need to know crucial points that need to be improved. Web mining services presents you the required results. It takes into consideration the IP addresses of website visitors, browser logs, cookies and so on.

Web mining tools analyze these logs and process them accordingly to produce meaningful and understandable information. For example, various bits of information can be analyzed to track the browsing route of website visitors. This may assist you in devising ways to make your website more effective.

The whole process of web mining involves extracting information from the internet through traditional practices of data mining and applying it to specific features of the website.

Types of Web Mining

Web mining helps to discover information, find related data and documents, identify patterns and trends and make sure that the web resources remain efficient. There are three main types of web mining:

• Web Content Mining

• Web Usage Mining

• Web Structure Mining

Web Content Mining

This process seeks to discover all the links of hyperlinks within a document in order to generate a structural report on the web page. Information about various facets, for example if users are able to find information, if the website structure is too deep or too shallow, are the web page elements placed correctly, what are the most visited and least visited areas of a website and do they have anything to do with the page design, all these are evaluated and analyzed for further research.

Web Usage Mining

In this process, data mining techniques are applied to discover patterns and trends in the browsing behavior of website visitors. Navigation patters are extracted and so that browsing patters can be deciphered and website structure and designed accordingly. For instance, if there is any particular feature of the website that visitors tend to use very often, you should seek to make it more pronounced and enhanced in order to increase the usability and appeal more to the users. This process makes use of logs and accesses of the web.

By understanding visitor movement and behavior as they surf the internet, you can seek to cater to their needs and preferences better and thus make your website popular among the internet masses.

Web Structure Mining

Web structure mining involves the use of graph theory to analyze the node and connection structure of a website. And as per the nature and type of web structure data, web mining is further divided into two types.

One, extracting patterns from hyperlinks on the internet. A hyperlink is a structural web address that connects the web page to another location. Second kind of web mining is mining the document structure. A tree-like structure is used to analyze and describe the HTML or XHTML tags within the web page.
