Address informed consent and include your contact info Determine how data will be entered into the computer Do a couple practice runs yourself. Include error detection variables in anonymous web surveys Do a pilot run with a subset of the target population. Determine schedule for initial contact with participants. Download the data frequently. Granello & Wheaton (2004)

Dynamic methods for online research Created a reusable database of survey questions. Can apply this system to other studies /questions. Software creates data tables of responses . User-friendly and automatically validates entries. Calculates statistics automatically. Generates SAS and SPSS program files for advanced analysis. All of the code for this process is open-source.
