[DISCUSS] Survey Banner on Main Site

[Dmitry Blotsky <db...@microsoft.com>]

Hey folks,

A suggestion came up to put a dismissible banner on the Cordova website that points to the survey we’ve put up, so that it will reach a broader audience than Twitter. Raghav Katyal is working on this right now. However in discussing styling, we had an idea...

What do you folks think of making the banner in the great nostalgic style of 2000’s “you are the 1000th visitor” ads, with flashing colors and Comic Sans? We think it would be hilarious. What do you all think?

Kindly,
Dmitry

If we look at GA for survey vs GA for website, there is a huge difference in the demographics. For example, there are almost no survey impressions from India, while India contributes the largest % of website users of any country. 

I'm all for using other channels to promote the survey, however, the website represents the biggest userbase that we should ideally ensure gets a look at the survey to ensure we have captured our target segment's opinions.

As for theming, I would maintain the same elegant theme as our current website and make it unobtrusive and dismissable.

Personally, I think the site looks too good for a banner that doesn't fit with the theme. Why don't we just do a blog post about the survey instead and promote it on other channels (google groups, framework mailing lists + their slacks)
