Run a Survey Online Using Forms in Google Doc

When a person wants to buy any product, he first asks to his freinds or colleague to know the review. But many times its not possible to ask every single person he knows. also its not possile to personally go to everyone and ask them. I found one good solution for this. Sending them the online survey forms which is very easy to do. You can add as many numbers of questin to it and send it via mail to all your friends.

Steps are:

Step 1: To get started, open your Google Docs home page and create new form using the Create new button. If you are already working on a spreadsheet and want to integrate a form in the same you do so by clicking on Insert—>Form.

Step 2: A new form will be created and you can get started by entering the title and brief description for the form. You can add questions to the form using the Add new button at the top. The questions can be put up in many ways such as text, paragraph, multiple choice etc.

Step 3: When you are done creating the form it is time to share it with your contacts and gather the data. You can either email the the form to your contacts,or embed it on blogs and forums using the iframe code form More action –> embed.

Step 4: All you need to do now is wait for the response from the users.



Note: You can use one of the many themes available to spice up your form.
