Try using a poll

Bloggers are always thinking of creative and different approaches to keep readers stimulated. One way to do this is with the use of a poll.

A poll is a good way to get readers involved with the post. The blogger is asking the reader for an opinion about something. This makes the reader feel important and useful to the site.

Polls are good for sites that are political in nature because they serve as a quantitative measure that can motivate. A blog poll is hardly scientific, meaning that they are not a good measure for research. They are best used for human interest.

Most of your visitors will probably opt out of actually answering your poll. You may have a few who will answer more than once. However, overall, your poll will be noticed out of curiosity.
