It helps to know who your readers are. So I’d like your help in completing a very tiny (four questions) survey I’ve created.
Click here to answer those four questions
I will publish the results here on the blog once I get 100 responses (anything below that wouldn’t be representative).
And to make it more entertaining, I’m going to make some guesses as to the results – and see just how far off I am. Feel free to join in the game – a prize to the closest guesses:
-
I think 20% of readers will be journalists, 20% management, 5% technical, 10% other, 25% educators and 20% students
-
The top five countries of readership: USA, UK, Australia, Ukraine, Brazil
-
50% will not use RSS readers; 20% Google Reader; 15% Bloglines; 15% other
-
50% won’t remember how they came across the blog; 15% links; 20% search; 10% Facebook; 5% blogroll
Many thanks for your help. Look forward to finding out how wrong I am…
Oh, and by the way: click here to answer those four questions. The survey is now closed.
UPDATE: The results are in.
a 100 responses doesn’t make it more representative than 10 or 1.000 – except the 1.000 is close to the number of total readers in this period …
booo… survey closed. I demand my democratic right!
Knew someone would pick me up on the ‘representative’ line – yes, I know. As it happens, Surveymonkey will only take 100, which is a shame.
