PollDaddy - the online polling and survey tool has been acquired by Automattic (company behind the popular WordPress blogging platform). This is Automattic’s second major acquisition in a short time. Just three weeks ago, Automattic also announced the acquisition of IntenseDebate, a popular blog commenting plugin.

PollDaddy users had created about 1 million polls and users have cast over 195 million votes. The online polling market is highly contested with dozens of competitors, yet PollDaddy has established itself as a high-quality choice among bloggers and, for many, has become synonymous with online polls.

PollDaddy Integration with WordPress

WordPress.com has already integrated PollDaddy’s functionality for its users, who can now easily add surveys to any blog post, which will surely give PollDaddy’s user numbers a significant boost. Automattic is also making a PollDaddy plugin available for self-hosted WordPress blogs.
