Crowdsource ideas with polls

Whether you’re a recipe blogger looking for inspiration for your next dish, a fiction writer pondering your next short story, or a photographer gauging interest for your next webinar topic, you can tap into your audience with polls. Ask your readers and followers targeted multiple-choice questions to gather their responses.

Gather data with surveys

In addition to polls, surveys capture information, whether you’re collecting feedback from existing readers or clients or gathering data and preferences from potential customers that have found you online.

With a survey, you can compile information in different ways, including multiple-choice questions, free text questions, ranked items, and more.

Integrate interactive content with quizzes

Need a way to evaluate the language students you tutor? Or perhaps you’d like to send initial tests to new students in order to place them at the appropriate level.

With a quiz, you can ask people a variety of questions and manage how quiz results are displayed (or not) to them. You can also optionally set a passing score.

Get quick feedback with ratings

With ratings, readers can quickly evaluate your blog posts, photos, and other types of content on your site. Choose a rating system of stars (one to five), or a simpler “thumbs up/thumbs down” option.
