What is the difference between a poll and a survey?
A poll allows you to ask just one question, and enter some predefined answers for your voter to choose from. A poll can be placed in line in your webpage and when your user votes, the results are delivered back to the poll without the page refreshing. With a survey, you can ask many questions. A survey usually takes up a full webpage and you would just send your users a link to that page. Surveys have many different question types that allow you to collect very different types of data.
