How can I target the appropriate audience with my survey questions?
When Google Surveys collects responses from the “general-Internet audience, ” it uses published Internet-population data sets for the target-population distribution. For example, when targeting United States, the United States government’s Current Population Survey (CPS) Internet Supplement is the target population distribution. For details, see our methodology overview. Note that our audience incomes are the median income of the areas we surveyed.
You can target questions based on inferred demographics (age, gender, or geography) from the first step of the survey-creation wizard.
For custom audiences such as dog owners or people who play golf, you can use screening questions that let you screen respondents to ensure that they are in your target audience. A screening question can be any non-binary, multiple choice question such as Yes / No / I plan to. As an example, respondents first see your screening question and then those who select “Yes” or “I plan to” answer the following questions from your survey.
What types of language targeting are available?
Creating surveys in different languages
When targeting surveys to Android-smartphone users in specific countries, you may have the option of choosing languages. When you select a target language, your survey is shown to any user who has opted to take surveys in that language. You are required to write your survey questions in that language.
For example, if you select Spanish in the U. S., your survey is targeted to any user who has elected to receive surveys in Spanish. This might include users opting to take surveys only in Spanish, as well as those taking surveys in both English and Spanish.
Survey translation
Google Surveys does not provide any survey-translation services. All surveys must be written and submitted in the language that the survey is targeting. Surveys are not automatically translated.
Multilingual targeting
Additionally, in some countries, you may choose to target a subset of users who speak multiple languages. When targeting these multilingual users, you are prompted to select the language of your survey questions. This lets us ensure that the question mechanics (e. g., the “Submit” button) are in the appropriate language.
Language and subpopulation validation
We run periodic validation surveys to help us verify the chosen language capabilities of Google Opinion Rewards users. These tests evaluate language fluency and proficiency. One of the primary use cases for language filtering is to target specific subpopulations. For example, in the United States, researchers may use screening questions to target bilingual respondents that identify as Hispanic or Latino. We evaluate survey results from these subpopulations in addition to language.
How and when to use language targeting
Some example use cases for language targeting include:
Evaluating language-specific creatives, promotions, or other marketing materials
Comparing behavioral characteristics or preferences between language populations
Amplifying general population research with alternate languages (e. g., French speakers in Quebec)*
Filtering to a specific audience to increase incidence of a subpopulation*
*Any surveys targeting sensitive demographics must comply with program policies.
Where will my survey questions appear? Questions appear throughout sites in our publisher network in order to get a representative sample of respondents. Users complete survey questions in order to access high quality content around the web, and publishers get paid as their users answer. Google and many publishers want to protect their readers’ privacy and ensure that any proprietary data they have about their readership is not exposed, so we do not supply a list of the sites where individual questions run.
Can I create matrix-grid-type questions?
Google Surveys does not support matrix questions, or grids with response categories along the top and a list of questions down the side, which often prompt participants to abandon surveys (Brecko, Carstens; 2006). Instead, we suggest that you break out each row of a matrix question into its own separate multiple choice or rating question. This way, respondents can focus on each question and provide more accurate answers.

How to Make a Poll on Discord – A step-by-step Guide – Remote Tools
In this article, you’ll learn how to make a poll on Discord, on both web and mobile, using poll bots, as well as without using them.
Online polls are a great way of gauging public opinion on various topics and matters. They can be a powerful way to get feedback on a product or service. Polls are also good for understanding the psychographics or demographics of your target audience.
If you’re a steamer and you have a Discord community, you can use polls to keep the community engaged and give your followers a way to make their views known. Further, polls have a higher participation rate than asking people to type out their answers, because they require just one click.
Even if you are a part of a company that uses Discord for work-related conversations, using polls on Discord can be really helpful. You can ask all members of the team when or where to hold a company retreat, for instance, or generate quantitative feedback on a new product feature by asking simple yes/no questions.
There are many ways to create a poll on Discord, as we explore in more detail in this article.

How to use Discord poll bots to create polls
Using Discord’s own in-built ‘reactions’ is a great way to quickly set up a poll and generate results. The way this works is, you type in a message and send it on a channel where you want to ask the question. Note that you must tag @everyone to notify them of the poll. Next, just ask members to express their stance using Discord’s built-in emoji reactions.
For instance, if it’s a simple Yes/ No poll, you can ask members to react to the message and use the ✅ (Tick mark) for ‘Yes’ and ❌(Cross) for ‘No’.
Here’s the step-by-step process on how to make a poll on Discord using Emoji reactions:
Step 1. Navigate to the server and channel where you want to input your poll
Step 2. Type in your poll question
Step 3. Press ‘Shift + Enter’ to move to a new line, tag @everyone, and type in the instructions for the poll
Step 4. That’s it, members in the channel can input their answers to the poll question by reacting to the message with the chosen emojis
If you are running a poll with more than two options, you can number each option in the poll instructions and ask members to vote by choosing the number emojis, like this:
Note that there are both benefits and drawbacks to using reactions to make a poll on Discord.
It’s fast and easy to set up.
You can see results instantaneously by checking how many people have voted for which option.
However, members won’t be able to cast their votes anonymously, because when you hover over the reactions, Discord will also show who posted that reaction.
Members may not respect the poll’s instructions and instead react to it with irrelevant emojis.
Further, your poll question might get drowned out by newer messages.
You can also create a new dedicated channel on your server for polls and questions. To do so, follow these steps:
Step 1. Click on the ‘+’ icon next to “Text channels” on Discord, in the left sidebar
Step 2. Enter a name for the channel (like “Polls”), and click on ‘Create Channel’
Step 3. Click on the gear icon next to the channel name, and go to ‘Permissions’
Step 4. Under “Roles/Members”, select @everyone and select only “Read Messages”, “Add Reactions” and disable other allowed actions
Step 5. Click on ‘Save Changes’
Now, you can use this channel solely for the purpose of making polls on Discord. Other members of the server won’t be able to post their own messages in this channel, they’ll only be able to read and react to your poll messages.
Discord is not just a text & voice chat application, but so much more. It offers extensive customisation features and even allows developers to create ‘bots’ to perform a range of tasks within the app. You’ll find Discord bots to automate certain functions and even enhance the experience by expanding the platform’s functionality.
Similarly, you can integrate the Discord bot ‘Poll Bot’ into your server to create and manage polls. Here’s how to do so:
Step 1. Go to Poll Bot listing on the website and click on “Invite”
Step 2. Sign in to Discord and select the server you want to add the bot to from, under the “Add to server” dropdown
Step 3. Click on “Continue” > “Authorize”
Step 4. Click on “Authorize” and complete the verification process
Step 5. Now, open the Discord app (either on web/ desktop) and log in
Step 6. Go to the server where you installed the bot, and open the channel where you want to create the poll
Step 7. Create the poll using the bot (check below for steps)
Note that Poll Bot lets you create 3 types of polls:
1. Yes/No poll:
Type in the following in the message box and hit enter:
+poll Your question here
Poll Bot will then display your question, as well as a thumbs up, thumbs down, and shrugging reaction emojis.
Channel members can then click on the reaction emojis to cast their votes.
2. Multiple reaction poll:
+poll {Your question} [option 1] [option 2] [option 3]
Poll Bot will then display a message with your question as well as alphabetical emojis for each option.
3. Strawpoll:
+strawpoll {Your question} [option 1] [option 2] [option 3]
Poll Bot will then reply with a message containing a link to a poll on
Channel members can click on the link to go to the strawpoll poll and cast their votes.
