Do I need an account to create or vote?
No. You do not need an account to create or vote. We support anonymous guest access. An account lets you save polls, edit designs later, and track detailed analytics on your dashboard. Creators enforce logins for strict voting security.
Are my uploaded images secure?
Yes. Your uploaded images are secure. We store them on a global content delivery network. Manage your files in the Media section on the create poll page. You delete your images there anytime.
How do you protect polls from spam and fake votes?
We provide three layers of voting security. You choose the rules. Restrict votes by IP address to prevent network spam. Use browser session limits for standard protection. Enforce mandatory account logins to guarantee one vote per person.
How do I control who sees the poll results?
Set result visibility before you publish. Keep results public at all times. Hide results until a user submits a vote. Lock results completely until your specified deadline passes. Keep data entirely private on your dashboard.
Do you allow editing after publishing?
Yes. You update titles, descriptions, and visual themes anytime. You do not alter answer options or switch the poll format once voting starts. This preserves data integrity.
Are my polls searchable on Google?
No. Polls remain private to your audience. Search engines do not index your individual poll links automatically. Only people with your direct link view and participate in your poll.
Understanding Poll Types
This section breaks down every poll type available on our platform, helping you choose the perfect format for your needs.
1. Single Choice Poll
A Single Choice poll allows users to vote for only one option from the list. Once an option is selected, they cannot choose another. This is designed for questions that require a single, clear answer from each voter.
2. Multi-Select Poll
A Multi-Select poll allows users to choose more than one option from the list. Voters can check multiple boxes based on what applies to them. This is ideal for questions where more than one answer can be valid.
3. Ranking Poll
A Ranking Poll allows users to arrange options in order of importance. Instead of selecting one or multiple answers, voters drag and drop the choices based on their preference. This is ideal for questions that require prioritization rather than simple selection.
4. Image Poll
An Image Poll uses pictures instead of plain text for the options. Users choose their answer based on visuals, making the poll more engaging and easier to understand at a glance.
In our Image Poll, you can set it as Single Choice (users can select only one image) or Multi-Select (users can select multiple images). You can also define the maximum number of images a user is allowed to select.
5. Video Poll
A Video Poll allows users to vote using video from youtube link instead of text or images. Voters can watch the video directly within the poll before making a decision.
Similar to the Image Poll, the Video Poll can also be set as Single Choice or Multi-Select. You can also define the maximum number of videos a user is allowed to vote for.
6. Realtime Card Poll
Our Unique Realtime Poll Card is designed for dynamic and interactive voting. Each option appears as a large visual card with its own vote button, making it easy for users to engage instantly.
Votes are reflected in real time, and rankings update automatically on the screen. This makes it ideal for live sessions, community engagement, and fast-paced audience interaction.
Managing Images & Media
Media uploads support Realtime Card Polls and Image Polls. The platform hosts images but does not host raw video files. You use YouTube links for video content.
