AidaForm: Create a Survey Online and Get More Responses

To start using AidaForm surveys, you need a user account. Click the Sign Up button if you don’t already have an account and go through the easy sign-up steps - it’s completely free! Log in to start creating a survey.

You can either start your survey from scratch, or use one of 20+ ready-made survey examples created by our research experts. All the templates are editable in the builder.

To start with a blank page, click the Create New Form button on your dashboard and select Create Blank Form at the next step.

Open the Form Elements menu on the left side. Here you can add the fields you need for your form: Full Name, Email, Phone Number, as well as your survey questions. Usually, surveys include closed-ended and open-ended questions.

Closed-ended questions are the ones where users have a limited amount of options. For example, “Have you ever been to Morocco?” or “Do you like sushi?”. Such questions can be answered by a simple “yes” or “no.” To add closed-ended questions to your survey, drag the Multiple Choice or Dropdown fields to the working area.

Open-ended questions require users to manually type their answer in the corresponding field. For example, questions like “What is your opinion on global warming?” or “How do you feel about the new iPhone model?” require more than a one-word answer. To include open-ended questions in your questionnaire, use the Short Text or Long Text fields.

In addition to these classic options, AidaForm offers many specialized field types:

• For surveys with pictures, use the Picture Choice field. Beautiful images will entertain respondents and increase the chances that the survey will be completed.
• To collect feedback, add interactive Scale, Rating and Slider elements. Use Matrix for more complex evaluation questionnaires.
• To be innovative, try our unique Media Answer feature. Collect Audio and Video messages from your audience.
• The Signature field and special checkboxes will help you to comply with all regulations and obtain consent for data processing.

Explore all the features of the Form Elements section – each field is customizable to your requirements.

Once you’ve added the necessary fields and questions, open the Form Designer to adjust the colors of your survey. You can choose one of the pre-made themes or customize it by clicking on the gear icon.

Further settings that are available in the designer menu:

• Turn icons next to survey questions on or off.
• Specify the size and type of the form font.
• Choose the size and shape of the buttons, and how you want to mark the required and optional survey fields.

When the design is ready, it’s time to publish your form. Open the Publish tab and generate a direct link to your survey – you can send it through email to your customers or publish it in your social media communities. Use the Embed on a web page function if you want to generate the code and place it on your website.

No matter which option you choose, you won’t need to use any third-party services to collect responses – you can view the survey results at any time in your member’s area. Moreover, you’ll get notified every time someone submits the form.
