Frequently asked questions

Should I put demographics at the start or end of a survey?

Most researchers place demographics at the end to avoid priming respondents. For very short surveys, putting them first is also fine.

How do I make demographic questions optional?

In SurveyHeart, simply turn off the required toggle on any field you want respondents to skip. This is common for sensitive questions like income.

Can I add more specific demographic categories?

Yes. Edit any Multiple choice or Dropdown field to add, remove or rename options to match your specific research context.

Is this questionnaire template free?

Yes. The template and SurveyHeart's free plan cost nothing, with unlimited responses and no time limit.
