Σύνοψη	Field-based netnography combines the systematic online community observation of netnography with direct in-person fieldwork. Researchers move between digital spaces and physical sites where the same community or practice exists, triangulating online discourse with face-to-face encounters. This approach is particularly suited to communities whose identity and practices span both online and offline worlds — fan communities, patient groups, activist networks, and professional subcultures, among others.	Participatory Netnography is a qualitative research approach in which the researcher becomes an active, contributing member of an online community in order to study it from within. Building on Kozinets' netnography framework, it extends the purely observational stance to active participation — the researcher posts, replies, and engages authentically — generating richer, context-embedded data about online social life, consumer culture, or community practices than passive observation alone can provide.
