Fourth Virtual Promise survey can now be completed online
Howard Lake | 15 January 2004 | News
Virtual Promise 2003, the fourth annual survey of how charities are using the Internet, can now be completed appropriately enough using an online survey.
The questionnaire, individual responses to which are kept confidential, will help provide valuable benchmarking data for charities using the Internet. Run by research organisation nfpSynergy, the survey is seeking input from as wide a range of charities as possible.
It covers areas such as

- what facilities/functions are on your Web site?
- wow do you measure usage of your Web site?
- which domain name variants have you registered for each of your domains?
- how are you marketing your Web site?
- what budget has your charity provided for your Web site?
- do you use a content management system?
- are you using mobile telephony and SMS as a communications tool?
Everyone completing the survey and entering their e-mail address will receive a free summary of the results.
Virtual Promise is one of the very few surveys of how UK charities are using the Internet, and it must surely be the only one that has data covering more than a year. As such it is important that it generates a good response rate, so UK Fundraising encourages you to fill in the online questionnaire.
We shall of course report on the survey’s final results.
