Using Bibliometrics and Text Mining to Explore the Trends of E-Marketing Literature from 2001 to 2010

Abstract

This paper describes a hybrid approach, using bibliometrics and text-mining, used to analyze longitudinal trends in the literature of e-marketing research from 2001 to 2010. The abstracts of 888 articles from six leading marketing journals were analyzed. The analysis identifies several core topics and themes of e-marketing research and reveals trends occurring in this growing area. The study reveals that combing bibliometrics with text-mining is a useful way to identify themes and trends for a topic in the literature and can produce meaningful results to help researchers achieve a deeper understanding of an area of interest.
