This is similar to a short survey I ran the other day: I wanted some stats about how many people used wedding gift registries, so I put an ad on Facebook (targeted at married females in NZ) that said "Answer 4 questions about your wedding and be in to win $50".
70% of people who clicked did the survey, which is a really high "conversion" rate -- I suspect the $50 prize draw really helps. I spent about $0.25 per click, so all up 200 survey results cost me about $120.
- marcusbooster 17y agoSo did you actually give the $50 prize to anyone?
- benhoyt 17y agoYes -- though not yet, because they (weirdly) haven't replied to my "you've won the $50 survey prize" email. Either they thought it was spam, or they typed in their email address wrong. I'm guessing the later, and will move onto the next randomly-selected participant in a couple of days.

- philfreo 17y agoFacebook used to have a really useful (and inexpensive) Polls feature that allowed you to get something like 1000 or 5000 responses from your demographic to a multiple choice question. They pulled it for some reason though. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01/04/AR2009010400542.html http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01...
