Wix Poll Tips & Recommendations
Whether you’re looking to engage existing users, reach new audiences, collect leads, or gather data for your businesses an elegant poll may be the way to go. It’s extremely engaging, quick to build, and easy to share.
Consider Your Audience
Select a poll question that will appeal to your users and visitors. You may want to make it controversial or humorous for additional appeal. The more they care about the topic you’re discussing, the greater your engagement will be.
Keep It Short, Clear & Easy
Aspire to keep the question and answer options short and simple so that any user can understand them and participate. Verify that the answers cover all the options and don’t overlap so that participants can accurately select the option that represents them best. If you want to ask more than one question, consider our survey maker option.

Include images or videos to make your poll stand out. You can add one visual that illustrates the question and different additional visuals to each of the poll answers. Visuals will increase response rates by drawing the attention of your audience.
Customize For Your Goals & User Type
Customize different features and settings of your poll without having to code. If your goal is maximum engagement add sharing buttons to encourage users to share it on their social media feeds.
However, if you’re aiming to collect leads use our contact form builder to include a lead form right before showing the results. If you’re research-oriented, consider requiring a social profile to vote and block repeat voting.
Get Noticed
Position your custom poll in a prominent place on your website so that all your visitors will notice it. display it in an enter/exit popup, or dedicate a specific section to alternating polls. Once published, share it across your social channels, in marketing emails, etc.
