An essential marketing tool

Feedback from visitors to your website could really help you make tactical business decisions with service or product development, giving you the control to improve your image. Used strategically, website exit surveys can become your new best friend by helping you ask the right questions, at the right time, to the right visitors, enabling you to capture feedback from people you would have otherwise have missed!
Top tips for smart popup surveys
Popup surveys on websites developed a bad reputation over the years, mainly as a result of using overly aggressive tactics to make website visitors take notice of them. Used cleverly, with the right message and triggers, your popup survey can have a positive impact on user experience and add value to your business.
Guidelines for creating popup surveys;
- Schedule the popup to appear at an appropriate time, not straight away
- Make it obvious what will happen if visitors choose to participate
- Have a clear, concise Call To Action
- Indicate how long it will take to complete
- Keep it short so as not to take up too much of your visitors time
- Make the questions highly relevant to the page that is being displayed
- Relate the message to what visitors are doing on your website
- Provide instructions about leaving the page
- Show your appreciation – Thank visitors and offer incentives for taking part

Website exit surveys
SmartSurvey also offers an advanced popup exit feature to further improve the customer journey. When enabled, visitors to your web site will be intercepted with an invitation popup message, inviting them to take part in the survey on exit. The Popup Window will stay open, but remain unobtrusive based on your specific needs, for example until 10 seconds after arrival on the home page. As soon as visitors leave your website, they will be redirected to the exit survey via an exit popup window.
Visitors can enjoy uninterrupted browsing of your site before giving informed, relevant feedback at the end of their visit.
