Statement of Principles

Virtual Surveys are the Website Research Experts. Founded in 1998 we were the first agency in the UK
to specialise in website and online research. Our research skills and online expertise combine to deliver
the required insight to drive your business forward.

Website Research
Understanding your customers and how they interact with your website is vital to building an effective
online presence. Working closely with our clients on literally hundreds of website projects, Virtual
Surveys has developed a broad range of techniques to help really understand how to fulfil customers’
online needs, including:-
• V-Survey: a pop-up survey technique amongst visitors to your website. Find out who is visiting
your website, what they are trying to do or how they rate it versus other sites?
• V-Surfs: individual accompanied surfing depth interviews to assess the usability, functionality or
content of your website.

Research 2.0
Virtual Surveys is at the forefront of using Participatory Web approaches for research purposes, under
the banner Research 2.0. Using our customcommunity platform we can meet a range of long term and
short term objectives.
Our customcommunity allows various functionality to be incorporated, including discussion areas,
personal blogs, surveys, polls, SMS uploads, video & other stimuli uploads etc.

Online Research
Virtual Surveys combines online expertise with research expertise to provide you with true customer
insight and the best possible return for your money.
