We've just released a new customizable poll feature, in partnership with PollDaddy! You can now drag and drop a poll on your page, edit and customize it right from within the Weebly editor. Here's a sample poll:
The new polling element comes jam-packed with features, and you don't even have to leave Weebly to use it! Simply drag on the "Online Poll" widget from within the "More" category, click it, and then click "Edit Poll".
Picture
From there, you can create multiple polls, set up the question you're asking, add and remove answers, and set up the poll theme. After you're done, click "Save Poll" -- the overlay window closes and you're immediately back in the Weebly editor. It's as simple as that!

We've been working at a break-neck pace to keep making Weebly better and better for you. We're monitoring your feedback very closely, and developing the features you request most. You can always make your voice heard at our Weebly slinkset page.

Thanks again for using Weebly, and we appreciate your support!

Wow. That is great. I have used a polldaddy poll in my classroom website with my students, www.mrwylie.com, but it is great to have that feature built in. Now that it is so easy to do, I will likely include it in my education technology blog too, www.educationtechnologyblog.com.

Thanks Weebly! The improvements are great. Look forward to seeing what comes next.

09/16/2009 7:53pm

I'll probably insert one of these into my blog tomorrow to see how it works. I'm looking forward to seeing this new feature in action on my page.

Good update!

hey guys nice update. I really like the poll i think i will put it on my weebly site.
Keep up the good work guys, come up with more nice good awesome stuff.

09/17/2009 3:39am

Nice addition! I was just thinking the other day what fun stuff would be coming our Weebly way and I wake up this morning and here it is! Very cool. I can't wait to play with the new polls! Thanks!!

09/17/2009 4:03am

Fantastic new feature. Will definitely be using it in my blog to help make posts a bit more engaging. Thanks

09/17/2009 7:10am

Wow..nice layout.
It'll be very useful to know what my visitors think about a lot of things.
Thanks again Weebly

09/17/2009 8:51am

This is much handier than having to copy and paste html from some other website. Looking forward to more updates.

09/17/2009 2:38pm

The best thing since the sub-pages! Awesome work guys! Keep it up!

You know it`s kind of funny that you guys partnered with PollDaddy.com because just yesterday I was going with Micropoll.com and I looked around for a new poll maker and came across PollDaddy. So I signed up, just yesterday, and now you guys already have it on Weebly. I think it`s so awesome. Thanks Weebly!

Thank's for the new poll update . Love it .

09/18/2009 1:18am

cool addition! keep 'em coming!!!

09/18/2009 4:07am

Cool feature, you should add the polldaddy BETA ratings. To get them on my website, I had to sign up at polldaddy.com and get the HTML myself. It would save a lot of hassle if you could add them!

09/18/2009 7:57am

I think it's a great tool for bloggers. You can ask your readers what they wnat to see on your blog, which gets more readers for the blogger.

09/18/2009 1:59pm

How wonderful!!!

09/18/2009 5:17pm

Yay! Another great element.

This definitely sparks my creativity and opens up many possibilities.

Hurrah for Weebly!

Thank you!

09/18/2009 11:02pm

Great. I will definitely use it on my site soon.

Keep up the good work!!

09/18/2009 11:15pm

That's great!

09/19/2009 10:44am

This doesn't work for me. It is just stuck on the default question.

Daniel
09/19/2009 12:34pm

It's nice, but would be good to be able to have a poll without the name of the service provider at the bottom, even if a small fee was due

09/20/2009 8:20am

Great new feature, thanks!

09/20/2009 8:21am

Nice new feature to use!

09/20/2009 9:39am

Eeee! Looooove that feature. Great going!!!!!
I've already used it and it is AMAZING!!!

09/20/2009 3:49pm

This feature is so cool! I`ve used like a million times before on other platforms, great to see that it`s available here! =D

09/20/2009 9:27pm

wow.. that's good..so nice and cool..improvements are so good...:D thanks for this! have a nice day :)

09/20/2009 11:16pm

Dang, I already have a PollDaddy account. I made it right before you started this! So I guess I don't need this because making them is already so easy. :P

09/21/2009 9:27am

Weebly does an amazing job of partnering with companies like poll daddy and wufoo. I don't have a place to use Poll Daddy at this point, but I going to find one soon. WEEBLY, I LOVE YOU!

09/22/2009 7:42pm

Ummm I am just happy Weebly was affordable for me. All the features are great regardless.

09/23/2009 2:40am

Like it!
I've used Polldaddy a few years ago so this is a great feature to tie in. the only problem is that I can't retrieve my password to access it - but that's not your concern!
When that's fixed I will insert one into a page on my site regarding online survey tools at http://andykirkelearning.weebly.com/online-survey-tools.html

09/23/2009 3:03am

Weebly did a great job in enhancing the features of the website thus creating a wide audience

09/23/2009 1:44pm

love this new feature.
Keep it up.

09/23/2009 3:18pm

Pretty cool new feature.
Not sure if i'll use it, but it sure looks cool

09/23/2009 3:47pm

I love the poll feature!, I only joined the other day and have already got my poll up and running! Thanks, looking forward to the next new feature!

09/23/2009 5:21pm

Super duper cool I use it all the time on my web-blog which you should TOTALLY CHECK OUTT!!!

http://eleanorsbookshelf.weebly.com

DO IT I DARE YA!

09/23/2009 10:15pm

Gosh thanks, really david, this one's really handy, I'm gonna use it for my pages which don't have comment boxes or something like that. :) Love it! A big <3

it should be a non-sponsored poll feature.

09/24/2009 1:43am

I only joined the other day and have already got my poll up and running! Thanks, looking forward to the next new feature!

09/24/2009 3:09am

09/24/2009 7:34am

hey,
i don't like the new poll feature
i think they should have games on this site

09/24/2009 6:41pm

Thanks you Weebly!!! I love this feature and I have wanted it for so long- keep up the good work!

09/25/2009 7:28am

WHY NOT ADD SOMETHING WE CAN USE LIKE BETTER E-COMMERCE OPTIONS? A POLL IS JUST FILLER BUT E-COMMERCE VARIANTS WOULD BE OF BETTER USE.

09/26/2009 11:01am

I'd probably use it if my website worked!
I agree with Katrina... Better e-commerce options would be good.

09/26/2009 2:51pm

Hi mariuslandman,

We are extremely sorry that your website is experiencing this downtime, and we are working as fast as possible to resolve the situation. Currently, Weebly's primary IP address is experiencing a "denial of service attack". This means that a massive number of computers around the world are all being told to simultaneously request information from our servers, which in effect, overloads our routers, and prevents them from displaying your website.

Denial of service attacks usually don't last more than 1-2 hours, but in this case, the attack has been going on longer. You may remember that a similar attack happened to Twitter.com recently. These types of attacks happen rarely and are unfortunately very difficult to defend against. We anticipate that we will have the situation fully resolved within the next few hours, but hopefully sooner. We are very appreciative of your understanding, patience, and support of Weebly.

Best,
Dan

the poll is ok...

09/27/2009 7:19am

It's so cool! I love the customizable features! You've done it again, Weebly! Keep going down Improvement Road!

09/28/2009 3:42am

How do you make a account?

09/28/2009 1:01pm

this is a very nice blog post. thanks for this useful post.

09/28/2009 3:30pm

I LOVE the new polls, but I really would like to have a chat room on my website for my fans to talk about the polls.

09/29/2009 4:42am

My site is down. It's been on and off -mostly off - for the last 5 days and this needs to improve. I'm in a critical stage in an offline biz startup, and much of my work out in the field, meeting prospectice clients and partners, is going to waste when they can't even see that my company is "for real" by visiting the site. I'm losing serious money, and I KNOW I shouldn't expect much from a free service like this. I really like the sitebuilding tool and all the cool new features you're rolling out, but my plans to eventually become a paying weebly user are quickly being deflated by this lack of reliability. Too bad, really.

I guess what I'm saying is - I would need a guarantee that something like this won't keep happening, but since that seems undoable I guess I have to look elsewhere.

It would be nice to get a quicker than 3 weeks response to support questions.

09/29/2009 6:12pm

OK!!! Enough is enough!!!! I have a pro site that means I PAY FOR YOUR SERVICE!!!! Why is it that my files CAN NOT be downloaded from my site???? I have had to build another very basic site using GOOGLE just so my customers can get the information needed to keep my business running!!!! Could somebody please get back with me ASAP!!!! I need answers/HELP NOW!!! This is my second message to your "Support Team" the first was over 48 hours ago!!! What kind of support is this???

09/29/2009 6:32pm

This nice feature... It's can be great...

09/29/2009 6:58pm

Jeff Cargrill,
I have the exact same problems. All of my video files are messed up. This is hundreds of hours of work and is costing me BIG TIME with my clients!!!!! I am also a pro user and PAY FOR THE SERVICE!!!!

09/30/2009 4:58am

Hi, Even I have the same problem... big messup with my clients too.

09/30/2009 5:43am

weebly you are soooo awsome, :D

09/30/2009 8:44am

So, can you take the polling feature off the suggestion list now that we have polldaddy integration?

09/30/2009 5:01pm

I use poll daddy to help me "hear" my fan's opinions. This is a great way of not hurrying anyone to hear my new stuff. Great thing to have! Thanks Weebly for a great widget and a great site builder!

The polls are great, the Ddos blackout wasn't. But, Weebly handled it! Go PRO and show your support and reassurance!

10/03/2009 2:11pm

Great feature! This is something that I've been hoping for as it offers more two-way communication with people that view my website and makes it "stickier".

10/04/2009 4:37pm

I love it!

10/05/2009 5:16pm

Hey does eny1 no how 2 publish ur site as a subdomain when its already set as a domain???? help! thxxx! and i like the polls

10/05/2009 5:20pm

I don't like this poll. It gets in to a lot of trouble. I wish weebly could use a different poll company.

10/05/2009 6:49pm

The addition of an online poll should help non-profit organizations, such as Nemacolin Castle, make future policy decisions with the input of its patrons. Thanks, Weebly. Good job!

10/06/2009 8:58am

Its really a creative invention. I liked it very much.

10/07/2009 11:00am

thanks. polling is good for feedback.
keep continue your improvements...

10/07/2009 11:43am

polls won't work for me

Weebly corrupted again... why are there no pictures on our websites? Why can't you inform your pro-members when your system breaks down - otherwise we direct customers to our site and its not there!!!! You guys are mad to not inform your paying clients...

Just received a 50% coupon off services for the problems were were experiencing last week with down sites. If I am already a pro user what else is there to purchase?

hey weebly fans do you like weebly.com

10/09/2009 7:07pm

I tried alot of options in this. I liked it very much. I enjoyed alot.

10/10/2009 6:31am

Sounds great, always loving weebly updates.

10/10/2009 7:39am

How do you create a page without selecting a site? There's no website to even select anyway! I guess I'll find a different site to make my own site on! This is just freaking dumb how you can't select a site. >_>

10/11/2009 1:08am

shall we creat more site pages for some other ideas 。

10/11/2009 1:46pm

weebly is awesome!!!!!

SOO USEFUL! I L~O~V~E it! It is just too cool! It helps me see how many people are like me or my friend, and also if the people who visit our site really care! awesome 100/10! Keep up the good work!

P.S. you should look into ShoutBox! Great widget, check it out on my website.

10/11/2009 4:05pm

it's ok. i guess i just don't have a use 4 it

10/11/2009 7:53pm

This is an awesome addition! I've already used it twice on my fan site!

11/05/2009 5:29am

I love weebly! I have been absolutely attached with it. I have never joined a blogging place before, and I found this one! Please bear with me into finding some more features around weebly. I find that we'll be a great big family, soon enough. Thank you, weebly!
