Pollhost

Posted by Kenneth Ronkowitz on


Here's some information about the pollhost.com service that I used to create the poll in my previous posting. I have only just started using it, so it's not a strong recommendation at this point but here's some info for you in case you want to use it on your site.

  • The poll service is free but they do place advertisements on your poll results pages (no ads on your site) and a link back to Pollhost.com. You can pay for an ad-free version.
  • They will remove polls from your account if it hasn't received a vote in over 30 days.
  • You can have up to 15 active polls - of course, if you hit max, you can create a second account.
  • You design your poll and they give you standard HTML code to paste into your page. If you have no access to your site's code, there's an option to instantly generate a page on Pollhost.com which will contain your poll box. Your poll will be immediately accessible on a randomly assigned URL such as xyz.pollhost.comand you can simply place a link to on your site.
