Polls encourage your audience to come back to your blog to read results and to invite others to your blog to vote. SodaHead polls go beyond tradional polling by making it a rich user experience for the voter. Whether you blog about the presidential elections just around the corner, something controversial in the news, your favorite sports team, the new trend or just a random thought -- invite your readers to chime in with a simple click.
