SodaHead Polls Review
There are lots of reasons why poll plugins, are being used in WordPress blogs. Main reason is that it increases interactivity, and secondly, it allows the user to get feedback from his readers by allowing them to voice out their opinions regarding a certain subject.
If you’re looking for a plugin that will do this trick for you, then you might want to consider SodaHead Polls. It will allow you to make polls, vote, put comments and post polls on any website. It also has this rating system that will give you an idea which article has the best content, as this plugin gives you an idea how people think. It will allow you to see people’s views, opinions as they express themselves on issues relevant to you via your chosen poll/questions. Cool huh?
Usability
I’ve tried a couple of poll plugins and services, and so far this SodaHead Polls is the most comprehensive. Reviews are right, that this plugin really is easy to use. If you want to add a poll into a post, just click on the SodaHead icon in the “Upload/Insert” listing and configure how your poll will look like by answering the fields in the screen that will appear. If you want to add a poll in your side bar, all you got to do is go to your blog’s widgets section, then find “Polls” and drag it into the desired sidebar on the right. You can add images and customize the look the way you want it, and you can do just that in a jiffy as the options are well laid out. No wonder this is being billed as the best poll widget available. However, it also is the most annoying. Because after installing the plugin, i keep on getting numerous emails from someone i don’t know.
