The final step just asks for your name and email address, after which Doodle displays your poll so you can share it and vote in it. Select this option to keep people from seeing each other’s votes.

Hidden poll: By default, the results of Doodle polls are visible to everyone who has the link, which is usually good.

Limit participants to a single vote: Employ this option to prevent people from signing up for multiple options.

Limit the number of votes per option: An example of where this option is helpful is if you want only so many people to bring a main course, salad, or dessert to a picnic-otherwise, the menu can get out of balance.

We’re fond of this option because many scheduling questions don’t have a simple Yes/No answer.

Yes, no, if need be: Select this option if you want to allow your participants to have a “maybe” or “if it’s absolutely necessary” or “you can twist my arm” option.

Once you click Continue, you move on to the Poll Settings screen, which provides four useful settings: In the screenshot, we’re using Doodle as a volunteer signup sheet. With a text poll, you can enter anything you want for the poll options. Note that if you’re creating a poll for an event you need to attend, it’s not worth including dates or times when you can’t make it.

Week view is the most common way that people use Doodle, because it’s how you choose times for a meeting.

In Month view, you get a calendar from which you can pick days and optionally add times. You have three choices here: Month, Week, and Text. The second step is where all the magic happens. The first step merely asks for the title of your poll and an optional location and note.

You could even use a Doodle text poll to see who among a large group of volunteers can help at a series of 5K races.Īfter you click the big red Create a Doodle button at the top of the Doodle Web page, you work your way through a four-step wizard. For example, you could use a text poll to see where a large group would like to have a party (your house, the park, a favorite restaurant), or what sort of food people want for lunch (Thai, Mexican, Ethiopian). In contrast, a text poll lets your respondents vote on anything. Use it when you’re trying to determine if the club Zoom call should be Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, and at 11 AM, 3 PM, or 5 PM on one of those days. A time poll is best if you want to let your respondents vote for specific dates and times. The first step is to figure out what sort of poll you want-a time poll or a text poll.
