To find their sample, Nielsen selects a county, then specific towns within that county, then specific homes within the designated area. They reach out and ask each of the chosen homes to participate in the program.

Homes for TV and audio ratings are scientifically selected, so you can't volunteer to become a Nielsen Family. Can I talk about being a Nielsen Family? No. Once you begin participating, you can't share that you're part of the Nielsen ratings.

How did I become a Nielsen research participant? By random sampling. We cannot ask every household to participate in the study, so we carefully select households in your area to represent the entire television audience. To be statistically valid, it is very important that families are randomly selected.

Nielsen's streaming data is derived from a subset of Streaming Meter-enabled TV households within the National TV panel. The linear TV sources (broadcast and cable), as well as total usage are based on viewing from Nielsen's overall TV panel. All the data is time period based for each viewing source.

Nielsen Streaming Platform Ratings uses people-powered panels and proprietary metering technology to measure what content is streamed, the device used to stream (smart TVs, connected devices, video game consoles) and the streaming source application.

Nielsen is legit. They take their reputation seriously because they are the major source of tv ratings. If their legitimacy or methods were ever doubted they would be risking a lot.

Nielsen works with various companies, including , advertisers, agencies and publishers, to measure the effectiveness and reach of online content viewed or listened to, regardless of the device used to consume it.

Is it legitimate? Yes. Nielsen sends mail to homes with invitations to complete short surveys on your media and consumer habits or to join our panels. Mail from Nielsen may include a survey that can be completed online, filled out and returned via mail, or done over the phone.

Nielsen Families are people who allow us to measure what they watch on TV and listen to on the radio.We take what we learn from them and produce the ratings. The Nielsen Consumer Survey asks about the activities you like, your shopping, travel and entertainment preferences, and your media choices. The pitch for the Nielsen survey comes with two fresh, crisp dollar bills. If you get a letter from the audience ratings company Nielsen, don't throw it awaythere's money inside. We celebrated 60 years of WARC broadcasting. As we prepared to honor this milestone, we reached out to WARC alumni and asked for stories, memories and photos. Learn more about joining or participating in a Nielsen panel or survey, as well as how we protect your information when we use it for our ratings.
