Add a popup to your site

A small testimonial that appears while someone browses. Effective, and easy to overdo.

1 MIN READ

A popup shows a single testimonial in the corner of the page while someone is reading. It catches people who would never scroll to a testimonial section.

Create one

  1. Open Popup under Content Studio.
  2. Choose which testimonials it draws from — everything approved, or a single tag.
  3. Set position, timing and how often it reappears.
  4. Copy the snippet and paste it into your site, the same way as a widget.

Restraint is the whole skill

A popup interrupts. Used once, it is persuasive; used aggressively, it is the reason someone leaves.

  • Delay it. Firing instantly interrupts before anyone has read anything.
  • Show it once. Re-appearing on every page turns proof into an irritant.
  • Make dismissal obvious and permanent. A popup that returns after being closed reads as broken.
  • Not on mobile checkout. Anything covering a payment form costs money.

Measure it honestly

Popup views appear in your Analyze report under widget and popup views. Watch engagement rate rather than views — a high view count with near-zero engagement means you are annoying people, not persuading them.
