The WooThemes Blog

We recently hosted a little survey within the WooCommunity (members only) to figure out just how we could further improve WooThemes for our users. We got more than 3000 responses on the survey and we’ve already started to put some new decisions in place based on your feedback.

To say thanks, we also promised to give away 4 x 16GB iPad 2′s to some lucky winners. Jeff got the the honour to pick 4 random numbers which we then matched with the respondent list. Here’s the 4 winners:

• Nick Kask
• Bob Dunn
• Frank Groet
• Phil Greenwood

Congrats to these winners and thanks to everyone else that helped us out by taking the survey. For those that weren’t so lucky to have won a shiny, new iPad, your reward will be in all the awesome stuff we release in the next couple of months.

We really believe in the wisdom of the crowd and we have thus decided to launch a little survey of our own… The WooThemes Survey is the first of its kind in many regards, considering that there has never before been a survey to track the preferences / opinions of WordPress users in terms of themes in general, the commercial themes market and everything that goes along with this.

So with a little bit of help from the awesome interface at PollDaddy we’ve setup a survey containing 30-odd questions aimed to help us guage your preferences / opinions in this regard. The survey serves a dual purpose in the sense that we are trying to get feedback on general WordPress themes issues, as well as opinions with regards to WooThemes itself. The survey is however open to anyone, as the few WooThemes-specific questions are only aimed at current WooThemes users.

We also intend on sharing some of the information we can mine from the survey with regards to the community’s views on WP themes and the future thereof (whilst we will obviously exclude the information relating only to our business).

We are hoping for as many responses as possible and have therefor decided to give away at least 3 Developer Subscriptions to 3 lucky participants. The survey will be open for the next 3 weeks and will thus close on Wednesday, 3 December 2008.

So hop, skip & jump over to the WooThemes Survey and get cracking on those questions… It’ll only take you 5 minutes…
