Goals
- Impetus: Need for a subjective and “direct from the user”
compliment to the information in the site content ratings, web
metrics, search metrics, support calls, general feedback, and other
business owner customer input channels.
- Primary Goal: Provide a process for gathering end user
experiences regarding the usability of the site web presence in a
cost-efficient manner.
- Secondary Goals:
- Create a survey infrastructure for an Internet UCD Program.
- Generate a pool of profiled users to provide timely answers to
questions about site site design and performance.
- Create a community of site users by providing summary
information and insightful conclusions to survey results.

Strategy
Using a series of 5 (or 6) online surveys to segment users by 18 sections
of the site, then collect feedback on specific user tasks they indicate are
important and that they use frequently.
- Survey 1: Importance of site sections, and join web survey panel
- Intercept survey, respondents volunteer with email address
- Survey 2: Gather users tasks
- Email invite, opt out, track previous responses, more demographic info
- Survey 3: Rate task importance and frequency of use
- Email invite, track previous responses
- Survey 4: Rate usability of site in relation to specific task
- Email invite, track previous responses
- Survey 5: Repeat survey 3 when significant functionality is added to site
- First instance being the redesign
- Survey 6: Repeat survey 4 (1-2 months after launch)

Survey Invite Email site Business Owner,
You are being invited to complete this survey because as a business owner you have insight into the tasks your
web site visitors need to complete. The results of this survey will be used to improve site design and focus
resources.
The purpose of this survey is to ask you to rate the importance and frequency of use of tasks your users might
complete on site. The tasks were compiled from the responses to another survey, completed by site end
users. While not exhaustive, they represent some of the key tasks by which we can judge the usability of the
site.
You will be asked only to rate the sections for which you are responsible. Also, you will have the opportunity to
add up to two addition tasks for that section. There are eighteen (18) site sections, and a number of tasks in
each. It should take about 15 minutes to complete. Your ratings will refine the list presented in our next user
survey
In a follow up survey, users will rate each of these tasks according to how well the site supports them now. We
will then repeat the survey periodically, most notably after the April redesign.
Please click the following link to access the survey: |LINK1|
We ask that you complete this survey by January 12.
Thank you for your time and input,
