Who makes Poll Maker
Poll Maker is a registered business name of My Plaza Pty Ltd, a privately owned Australian company. It was founded in Sydney in 2003 by Martyn Stephens and Michael Hodge, who lead it today from the Innovation Campus at the University of Wollongong. The same team builds Quiz Maker and Pulse Form Creator.
Martyn wrote the company's original online survey platform in 2003 and remains the architect of the technology Poll Maker runs on, from its database design to the global network that serves every poll.
Michael has led the company since 2003. He studied Computer Science and Psychology at the University of Wollongong, and writes and reviews the question sets in Poll Maker's survey question library.
