Subscribing to The Nut Graph
 
Dear reader,

As you know, The Nut Graph has to figure out a way to be a financially sustainable business. One way to help any news site earn revenue is through subscriptions. Indeed, The Nut Graph is seriously contemplating a paid model so that we can continue doing the public interest journalism that we do.

But before we embark on a subscription model, we’d like to have your feedback. We hope you will take some time to answer the questions below. Your responses will help us determine readers’ willingness to subscribe and reader expectations from being a subscriber. Additionally, the survey will give us valuable feedback about The Nut Graph and about who our readers are.

The survey will take less than five minutes to complete, and all the information collected will be anonymous. The survey is limited to one response per IP address, but we will not store any information on your IP address, nor disclose the IP address to a third party.

The survey will run from 24 Dec 2009 to 31 March 2010.

Should you have any questions about this survey, please e-mail jacquelinesurin@thenutgraph.com

Thank you for your time and support.
