Mumsnet Census

58 replies

Just filled it in, and I think I need an extra option for the 'how often do you visit Mumsnet' question - 'Every ten minutes or so' or even 'Once I'm on, I don't really leave all day'.

Good point Cupcakes. Mumsnet, I do not wish to receive anything through the post! Thank you.

SaintGeorge · 29/06/2006 13:43

I wouldn't stress about it.

It clearly says on the census page "Please rest assured that none of your personal details will be given to any third parties.."

Hello,
Promise we are not passing any specific information to advertisers - we're just going to aggregate it, so you're right we don't need specific postcodes. We'll change the postcode thing to by region tonight - in the meantime please do include only the first bit. Thanks for pointing out and very sorry for any undue worry.

Is it more assessing what your average MNetter is like so you can sell advertising space on MN?

I have filled in census already, just wondering.

JustineMumsnet · 29/06/2006 13:53

Yes pretty much Cupcakes, plus we want to know about how the average mumsnetter uses the site, so we make sure we thinking along the right lines for improvements etc

I filled it in, but got a bit annoyed that it assumed you live in the UK - I don't and there are plenty of other mnetters who don't as well.

zippitippitoes · 29/06/2006 14:08

I guess the advertisers aren't interested in overseas posters!

footprint · 29/06/2006 14:09

Good point, never thought of that!! (Bit dim, me!)

JustineMumsnet · 29/06/2006 14:10

Oops another oversight - promise we are interested in you if you live overseas - will fix tonight along with postcodes.
Sorry!

RTKangaMummy · 29/06/2006 14:20

Oh crikey I have just done it and filled in my postcode in FULL !!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with the job catagory not having enough choice

FlameBoo · 29/06/2006 18:02

Hi - we've now updated the survey to ask for English region, Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales and have included a field for Other for anyone outside the UK.

Self employed is now a option in the working status question and finally, you now hae the chance to say you spend days at a time on Mumsnet.

Thanks for filling it out!

JJMumsnet · 29/06/2006 18:09

Flameboo - tis fine to do again. Just put a little note next to your email address, eg "jj@mumsnet - this is the right email".

FrannyandZooey · 29/06/2006 18:09

Aww, I want to fill it in again now

kalex · 29/06/2006 18:15

LadyTophamHatt · 29/06/2006 18:21

done.

counldn't decide how many hours I spend on MN so just clicked "days at a time"

thats pretty much almost true aswell!!

JJMumsnet · 29/06/2006 18:23

When the survey is over, we're going to go through and change the postcodes into regions for our statistics. Please don't worry about anyone getting the information. And if anyone has a handy reference on which postcodes belong to which regions, it'd be much appreciated.

Thanks again!

suejonez · 29/06/2006 18:39

We use a postcode identifier in work I'll have a look for it.

FlameBoo · 29/06/2006 19:13

[email protected] - yes, I am the moron who doesn't know their own email address

I've done it, PLEASE will you publish the results (anonymously of course)? I wonder if we'll be surprised or not if you do?
