Digital Multiple Case Study — Digital Multi-Site Case Research

Digital Multiple Case Study is a qualitative research design in which two or more bounded digital cases — such as online communities, social media platforms, virtual organizations, or digital ecosystems — are studied in depth and then compared systematically. Grounded in Yin's case study methodology and adapted for digital settings, the approach combines the contextual richness of single-case inquiry with the analytic leverage of cross-case comparison in online environments.
