Research - Gaining Survey Results

In order to gain the most useful and conclusive results, we need a large number of people to complete our survey. Therefore, we need to give the link to our survey to many people. The most effective way to do this would be to utilise social networking sites, such as Tumblr and Twitter.
On tumblr, we would post the link and add a message explaining what the link is. From the image below, we can see that my post has 26 notes, which means that 26 people have either liked the post, or reblogged it. As a consequence, I would expect around 26 people to complete my survey.
In addition to displaying the link on Tumblr, I also tweeted the link to around my 140 followers. I would expect around ten of these followers to both see my tweet and complete the survey.
I have also asked family members to complete the survey, so that we can get a range of people completing the survey, and not just young people - the main users of social networking sites.
