ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, a system is provided for collecting a user response to an explicit question specifically concerning a particular web page of a website. An icon viewable on the particular web page the explicit question specifically concerns is operable to present the explicit question specifically concerning the particular web page to each user that accesses the particular web page while the user is viewing the particular web page and without requiring the user to access any web page other than the particular web page. Software associated with the icon viewable on the particular web page the explicit question specifically concerns is operable to receive a response to the explicit question specifically concerning the particular web page from the user while the user is viewing the particular web page for reporting to a website owner associated with the particular web page without requiring the user to access any web page other than the particular web page.
