Comments on: The Importance of a Demographic Survey for Your Media Kit

I recently did a couple of surveys of my readers. I used three survey tools; Survey Monkey, iContact’s survey feature, and Google Docs. Google doc won hand’s down not only because it’s free but because it was easy to download the information and they have pretty graphs, and did I mention it was free?

The only problem I have with doing surveys is getting people to participate. It may be a universal thing so I won’t worry about it too much, but it sure is nice to have a nice sample of participants.

I’ll pull my survey results together to include in the media kit I’m creating (from a free template of course ;-).

If your blog is registered with Alexa, you can access a lot of this information about your readers directly from their site! They track these stats and then tell you them based on the individual readers of your blog who are also registered with Alexa. The stats are supposed to be pretty accurate, and you might have an easier time accessing them than trying to get your readers to take a survey, though the survey is still a great idea!!

Thanks for this!!
