- Create tags to categorize your answers with as you are reading through them. Every response should belong to at least one category. You can add multiple tags to one response.
- Use sentiments: determine whether a response is positive, negative or neutral. By doing this you will be able to identify clear trends, issues and suggestions from your respondents.
- Review the tags. After all the items are tagged, review the keywords and check to see if some keywords can be combined or be split into two.
