Good afternoon freelancers, to you who use, read, post to and interact with the
Community FAQ here, the posts on it, peoples questions and the other of you that do. Not to leak out
highly sensitive company secrets or anything lol,

but I heard
from an echo that the
powers that be were thinking about introducing
polls to the
Community FAQ here. It was more of a statement really about how they/we/it need them.
And that made me wonder, do, would and why would it/us/we need polls for And obviously everyone knows, because polls are and can be very cool to have and very revealing/insightful/fun to start yourself, vote on and interact with and see which of the choices is the most popular. Which is cool but they could be very good for the SEOClerks Community FAQ. So yeah!! Hope you don't mind me leaking this but I thought I had to use my initiative and put a poll out about having polls here.
Yeah I thought it sounded really good and would personally love to see it. Because polls are great
conversation starters and are very
magnetic by nature. They bring people together, make them come back and are highly shareable. So the need, I'm guessing, would be for all those reasons, and more. I mean, it makes sense anyway. Because we're a
community. And communities like
forums and
social networks have and make use of
polls and all sorts of
media elements and
interactive gizmos/widgets and that. Facebook adopted polls long ago for these reasons.
Polls, on the SEOClerks
Community FAQ. Optional of course, (you can still create normal post) but would be really cool to create polls on things and find out the truth about what people prefer and stuff. On things like SEO especially!
Some possible basic 2 choice poll idea examples:
- Google vs Yahoo vs Bing
- Hootsuite vs Massplanner vs whatever
- SEMrush vs Buzzsumo vs Moz etc
- Blog Commenting vs Forum Posting
- Guest Posting vs Article Marketing
- SEO vs SMM etc etc
- Apple vs Samsung
- Razzy vs Chuck Norris
Either two or multiple choice answer polls of all sorts and kinds!
So I just thought I'd post this just to put the feelers out there and see what people think!
Should the
SEOClerks Community FAQ have polls?
Would you like to use them or you don't really care?
What pros and cons can you think of on (for/against) them?
What are some possible good, useful or fun polls we could create?
I personally think it would be really cool and am all for it

You gave us some nice examples of possible polls, I'm especially interested in finding out what the SEOclerks community is using in terms of SEO tools, like the "SEMrush vs Buzzsumo vs Moz" example poll.
Second, together with polls maybe we should also have "debates" where the users can vote with "Agree" or "Disagree" on various statements regarding the SEO and online marketing industry.
So yeah, I'm all in for additional features, the FAQ section is growing and should continue to develop and introduce new stuff.
Cheers. Same here. Polls can be a nice feature to have in a content-based community like this one!
