I have a question relating to how people use the information presented to them when they conduct a search on the internet. In the example below, the search term used is ‘Widgets’ and the Search Engine results pages presents the user with multiple websites, each with 3 key pieces of information:
1.The page title of the website (in blue)
2.The website domain name (in green)
3.The short description of the page text (in black)
The below example descibes:

I would like to know which of the 3 pieces of information a users would NORMALLY use in order to determine if they click through to that site.
Please select your answer through the poll.
This is for some research that I am conducting and I would ideally like around 100 respondents for the results to be significantly valid.
Thank you
