Vote in our poll(s), tell us what you think! Answer the Why? or What? questions

That’s right, vote in one of our polls and tell us what is going on, what you think, how we should do it…!

We have been trying to get some feed back on what everyone is thinking, what is going, what would be the best direction for us to go in with MyContractorList.com with little response.

We know people are visiting our site and not just one or two but maybe even three or four but really, we have wonder why all the traffic with very little response?

What Is it? They just don’t like the site?

Are we not offering what they want? We offer to much? We offer to little? Site is to hard to navigate? They don’t like the look of the site? They don’t, maybe they don’t or maybe its this…BUT we are still getting traffic, repeat traffic so WHAT IS IT!!! Why so little participation? We have discovered is that you can ask yourself those questions and many more questions to the point of driving yourself crazy.

We know Its a great site, but why? we are networking, twittering, face-booking, blogging, advertising, various promotions, always making changes to better improve the site, but why so little response, with so much traffic or are we just impatience…we needed answers.

The solution, we decided to cold call some of our members to get some good honest feedback and we even managed to speak with some people who view our site, know our site but aren’t registered members.

What we found out: was most people, members and non-members check out the site almost daily to view the new changes, see who the new monthly feature is, check out the contractor classified ads, view the talk forum & look for new postings, read the blogs but they don’t log-in very often.

Most like the site the way it is, they think its a great thing (so do we) and when the economy gets better they will definitely use it.

When we ask why don’t you log-in and view the posting boards or post in the talk forum, reply to someones comments or post? They say its because their is very little going on, with the economy in the slump its in the last few times they check the posting boards their where no posting (that’s true) and they can view the contractor classified ads without logging-in and the talk forum hasn’t had a lot going on either and why log-in just to respond to one thing?

But we need some guidance on what you think!

We have to keep the site secure that is the reason for the log-in requirements but we do need to know what you think. So we have added polls throughout the site to help us get the guidance we need and you or they don’t have to log-in to vote in the polls, just pick and click to vote no log-in required!
