Common questions about creating polls and surveys on VoteGenerator, a free online poll maker with ranked-choice voting and no sign-up.
VoteGenerator is a free online poll and survey maker. You create a poll, get a shareable link, and collect responses in real time. No account is required from the poll creator or from voters.
No. You can create and share a poll without registering, providing an email address, or installing anything. You receive a private admin link to manage the poll and view results.
Voters are never asked to identify themselves by default. Optional anonymous mode goes further: when enabled, voter names are discarded, comments are shown without attribution, no device or location data is recorded, and timestamps are stored as dates only so votes cannot be re-identified by their order.
Up to 100 responses on the free plan, with 3 active polls at a time. The Pro plan is $19 per month for 10,000 responses, and Business is $49 per month for 100,000 responses.
The free plan allows 3 active polls with up to 100 responses, across all 8 poll types including ranked choice and multi-question surveys. Polls stay open for 30 days. There is no credit card requirement and no trial period — the free plan does not expire. If a poll reaches its response limit it stops accepting new votes rather than generating a charge, so there are no surprise bills.
Voters rank options in order of preference. Results use instant-runoff: if no option has a majority of first-choice votes, the lowest-ranked option is eliminated and those votes transfer to each voter's next preference. This repeats until one option holds a majority.
Yes. Every poll provides embed code that displays the poll inside an iframe on your own site. Business plans can remove VoteGenerator branding from embedded polls.
