PollDaddy - Free Surveys and Polls for your Blog

Last year I was helping my wife to create on-line survey as a part of her academic research on psychology. Tell you truth, it was not easy to find a good site that will give the sufficient flexibility, will allow significant survey length, and will be free. I do not remember, which site we have finally selected, but the chosen site was just the best from the available, and was far away from the “service of our dreams”.

It seams, that I just missed in my search an interesting online tool PollDaddy, which gives trouble-free opportunities of creating free polls and surveys, and placing them on any website, blog, or social networking site, like MySpace, hi5, Friendster and Xanga. PollDaddy application is simple and flexible, allowing high degree of styles and appearances customization to match the interface of website or blog. Poll can be delivered to the reader and potential responder through JavaScript, flash, direct link, widget or RSS.

Basic services PollDaddy are free, without adding sponsored advertising or redirecting users out from the site, hosting the poll, however, there is the link to their Web Site on the form. In November 2007, PollDaddy introduced the second version, improving reporting, tracking, fraud detection, and voter location features. While the current services remain free, some of new features will be available exclusively with the PRO account for the moderate fee. Current limitations for a free account holder are 10 responses per month and 10 questions per survey.
