What Do You Most Want to Learn About Prepping? [Poll Results]
Last week I ran a poll asking readers what aspect of prepping they most want to learn more about. My intention is to use the information provided when planning future posts. These polls are a great way for me prioritize your needs and to make the blog better and more useful to you.
The results were clear – the majority of readers want to learn more about living off-grid (34%), food storage (16%) and retreat defense (14%), for a total of 64% out of a total of 519 votes. These results help me put together my editorial calendar over the coming months.
I will admit being surprised by some the results,for instance I thought book and product reviews would rate higher in the results…
Here’s how the graph looked.
Now that I know what you want and need – I’ll start developing a number of posts along these lines. Thanks to everyone for responding to the poll – I appreciate your help shaping The Survivalist Blog in this way.
If you have ideas for posts that you would like to see feel free to leave a comment below or drop me an email and I’ll see what I can come up with.

M.D.,with the almost sure thing Uncle Sugar is going to force the health care reform thru,we are not going to need any reviews,we're going to need to know how to live off grid and just survive. Post all the info on surviving off grid you can and as soon as possible.

MD i agree with the poll off grid and low energy living is what im most interested in. Food storage and cooking like in the FOXFIRE books a close second . was glad to see guns low on list on every blog that has a gun article it always seems to become an argument .i know many aspects of survival cant be cuverd by just one person so mabe soliciting help with guest writers would be a thought. and bump the reviews up i think that was an over site from us the readers merry christmas !!!! signed blufnotme in alabama

I'd really like to see a lot of stuff about urban survival. I'm new to this site (but like what I see) so if you have covered this a lot then please forgive me. I haven't had much time for digging around yet.
Not all of us can relocate to the boonies or move West of the Mississippi. I'd like to see some topics relating to those of us that are stuck in cities or the surrounding areas. I understand that this is a losing proposition in a long term situation but most SHTF situations are not total devestation or necessarily long term.
