Help Ghacks by filling out a survey

You might have noticed the survey banners in the sidebar or below posts. Those banners are from a cpm company that require at least 200 filled out surveys before they make targeted and well paying banner campaigns available for that website.

I do not like filling out surveys myself and I can understand everyone who does not want to fill them out. Yet, I would like to ask for your help in reaching the 200 survey limit (I have 20 currently) so that I get access to the targeted campaigns.

The survey consists of just a few click-through questions that take about a minute to answer. Many of the questions do not have to be answered, for instance about the household income and the survey does not ask for personal information that can be used to identify you.

It would be really nice if you would fill out this short survey, it would help me a lot to reach the 200 needed surveys.

Thanks for taking the time to read this even if you make the decision to not fill out a survey.

Yo. Filled that thing out. Didn’t take long really. Interesting questions about age and web design though. :)

questions about income and number of people in the household… pfshhhh *EDIT* Ok i read the whole post now and you can skip that bit, but why ask in the first place if it doesn’t have to be filled in…

You are welcome. Typical marketing surview.
I don’t like such things, but you are helping me, so I was happy do this little favor for you;)

Martin says, February 17th, 2008   

Guys you are really nice. As I said I totally understand if you don’t want to fill it out, I would not fill one out myself unless it would be for a friend or website that I used regularly ;)

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at websurvey.burstmedia.com.

Cheryl says, February 17th, 2008   

Yup, I filled it out too.

Your site is one of the few I religiously check every morning before going to work. Appreciate the work you put into it. I’ll gladly fill out a form.

Done!

I didn’t have to identify myself, so I filled it out. As usual, the questions makes no sense. They seem to think that I see ads when browsing. I don’t since I use FF & adblock plus.

Survey completed. Doing my small part to help out your site, Martin.

Page 1 asks for my age.
When I click NEXT it tries to download: http://websurvey.burstmedia.com/scripts/perseus6.exe

I don’t mind filling in a survey for you, but I refuse to download executable files.

Bruno 'ReX' Barbieri says, February 18th, 2008   

Martin, i daily visit your site to see the new posts, i filled the survey.

Marc-O says, February 19th, 2008   

done.

I try to answer surveys I find useful, because as a data worker myself, I understand the value of such things.

Sad this survey is pretty badly made itself. Asked me the same question 3 times.

Anyway, hope your count is high enough now.
