(PRWEB) May 25, 2005 -- eDigitalResearch, the online market research leader, has implemented a Viewer Panel on bbcworld.com, the main website of BBC World. This will provide instant feedback on the opinions and habits of viewers to the BBCs international news and information channel, which is seen in more than 200 countries and territories around the globe.
Trails running on BBC World have boosted recruitment for the Panel, and with simple profiling, reliable research can be extracted from surveys. The Panel can be canvassed, via email invitation or online polls, for views on promotional campaigns, strategies and programming. A survey was recently run to assess the impact of BBC Worlds strapline Putting News First", which was launched in January 2005, and is currently being supported by a global advertising campaign.
Specific views can be funnelled with supplementary surveys to gain further insight, and with eDigitalResearchs ability to monitor ongoing as well as instant feedback, an evolving picture can be built.
Rufus Weston, BBC Worlds Research Manager, says it was the need for cost-effective and instant feedback from a recognised audience sample that secured the appointment of eDigitalResearch. Given the global reach of BBC World, internet and email were the obvious means by which to look beyond traditional research methods, and setting up an eDigitalResearch-driven audience panel was the access point."
The versatility of user-friendly eDigitalResearch analysis tools and a proven track record serving heavyweight media clients were also deciding factors for BBC World. Weston adds: Weve yet to explore the full marketing potential of the BBC World Panel and other eDigitalResearch tools, but we are excited by the prospect of making online research a function of our marketing strategy."
