*Guest Post by *Marina Sans*, Video Services Account Coordinator, Spain & Portugal of *[The Orchard](http://www.theorchard.com/?ref=hypebot.com)* on [The Daily Rind](http://www.dailyrindblog.com/youtube-poll-cards/?ref=hypebot.com)*It’s been a while since YouTube rolled out its [Cards feature](http://www.dailyrindblog.com/use-youtube-cards-all-videos/?ref=hypebot.com) — the mobile-friendly evolution of [annotations](http://www.dailyrindblog.com/youtube-annotations-album-preview-video/?ref=hypebot.com) — which has proved to be a powerful tool to increase engagement and click-through rates. In the past, you could choose between four types of cards: **Video or Playlist**, **Channel**, **Donation** and **Link** (which includes both Merch and Associated Website) — check out [this Daily Rind post](http://www.dailyrindblog.com/use-youtube-cards-all-videos/?ref=hypebot.com) for more info — and now, [**Poll** cards](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXlY6EbWBiQ&ref=hypebot.com) have been added to that list.[![YouTubePolls](http://www.dailyrindblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/YouTubePolls.png)](http://www.dailyrindblog.com/youtube-poll-cards/youtubepolls/?ref=hypebot.com)This new type of card allows you to make your videos even more interactive by letting viewers participate in a multiple-choice poll. You can define your poll’s title and up to five poll choices, and the best part is that you can **see the results in real time**! As with other card types, you can have the poll card show at a specific time in the video and see how it is performing through your channel’s analytics:[ ](http://www.dailyrindblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Captura-de-pantalla-2016-02-18-a-les-13.15.22.png?ref=hypebot.com)[![Ticketmaster logo_1](http://www.dailyrindblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Ticketmaster-logo_1.png)](http://www.dailyrindblog.com/youtube-poll-cards/ticketmaster-logo%5F1/?ref=hypebot.com)We have some early performance results, too: a poll card got a 7% of clicks per teaser shown and 145% of clicks per card shown. Considering that the average for other card types is 1% and 10% respectively, these are great results. It’s a fantastic way to encourage viewers to engage with your content while giving you valuable insight as well. For example: don’t know which music video you are going to publish next? Let your fans tell you!To make it easy, here’s **[how to create a poll in your videos](https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6296585?ref=hypebot.com)**:

2. For the video you want to add a poll to, click **Edit**
3. In the top tab bar, click **Cards**
4. Click **Add card**
5. Next to the Poll option, click **Create**
6. Add your poll’s title end up to five poll choices
7. Create the card and adjust the start time for the card teaser in the timeline under the video
