Surveys by Feedback Cat Plugin

Surveys by Feedback Cat Helps You Grow Your Business Or Blog By Making It Easy To Gather Feedback Using Onpage User Surveys.

Surveys by Feedback Cat is the first WordPress plugin that lets you read people’s minds.

Well, sort of.

When you use our plugin you’ll be able to know what your users are really thinking.

Unfortunately, though, “reading minds” here doesn’t mean doing anything out of the X-Men movies. We’re not talking mind reading in that sense.

Instead, Surveys by Feedback Cat lets you create surveys and get direct user feedback. With this feedback, you will know what your users are thinking. You can then use their thoughts from the survey to grow your business more effectively.

So, do you have 2 minutes?

That’s how “long” it takes to set up Surveys by Feedback Cat. You’ll find complete installation instructions below. But don’t expect anything long or time-consuming. It really is easy to get up and running with Surveys by Feedback Cat. You can do it in 2 minutes. Seriously!

Then there’s the whole issue of price.

Brace yourself. Sit down if you need to. Stop chewing a chicken bone, so you won’t choke on it.

Surveys by Feedback Cat is…

FREE!

Libre. Gratis. 免費.

You can set up your surveys and get powerful user feedback at NO charge.

Speaking of free – Surveys by Feedback Cat is proudly 100%, bull**** free.

That means you can use our plugin without being harassed by annoying up-sells.

We’re NOT going to be cheapskates and only let you do X number of surveys for free.

We also respect you enough to NOT shove a branding link inside your feedback forms. They are your surveys, after all. We’re just along for the ride.

Got all that?

Hope so. Here are just a few more things you need to know.

First, once you set up Surveys by Feedback Cat, make sure your email inbox is ready. All user feedback is going straight to the inbox – meaning you don’t want responses from surveys to accidentally get flagged as spam.
