conducting interviews to explore the topic thoroughly

Explanation: interviews (when planned and systematic) are a formal research method. Browsing the web and casual conversations are informal, and "creating surveys to see if the topic is interesting" sounds informal in purpose even though surveys can be formal if designed for research.
