Visitor's Poll Results

The purpose of this poll was to gather data so that potential advertisers can gauge the relative value of the various advertising packages we offer. We thank all who participated!

Responses were gathered for five weeks during June and into the first week of July, during which period the magazine was visited approximately 2100 times. The poll was not scientifically conducted, but we did discard obvious duplicate responses. We stopped when we received 100 "legitimate" responses. Here are the results:
