It is important for sites or networks selling advertising
space to be able to offer advertisers relevant information about the people visiting
their site or sites. Advertisers want to know who they reach with their ads. If they
are women or men? What their age is? Where do they live and what is their education? The
VisitorQ surveys were developed to make it possible for sites to provide this information
to advertisers.
Since February 2001 CQ Marketing Research carry out
tailor-made VisitorQ surveys on all sites in
AdLINK Sweden's network.
The following questions are included in these surveys:
* Overall impression of the site
* Willingness to recommend site
* Internet purchases and orders
* Product category interest
* Place of residence
* Education
* Occupation
* Income
* Gender
* Age
* Marital status
* Children in household
For sites not part of AdLINK's network there are three
versions of VisitorQ: Basic, Extended och Tailormade.
VisitorQ Basic includes questions on the basic demographic
facts about the visitors, while VisitorQ Extended also includes questions about their
habits on the site, their general Internet habits and their interest in various product
categories. VisitorQ Tailormade is based on the Extended version, but site-specific
questions are included according to the individual site's needs.
VisitorQ Basic includeds the following questions:
* Gender
* Age
* Place of residence
* Education
* Marital status
* Occupation
VisitorQ Extended includes, in addition to the questions
included in the Basic version, the following questions:
* Income
* Frequency of visits to the site
* Startpage in browser
* Bookmark
* Internet purchases and orders
* Product category interest
* Main use of the Internet
VisitorQ Tailormade includes the same questions as the
extended version, but additional questions are added according the each client's
specific needs.
The VisitorQ surveys are carried out by taking a random
sample of the visitors to the site. The sampling can be made by means of a script
developed by CQ Marketing Research or in some other way that is suitable for the site.
The survey is carried out during four to seven days. The survey is administered on CQ's
servers, which means that there will be no extra load on the site's servers.
Presentation of results is done according to the clien't
needs. Results can, for example, be made available on a password protected web-site or
presented on slides at a formal presentation.
