Is your web site FORM a monster ?

[admin]

Often times people try to collect too much information and end up losing a potential client.

Tips on what to collect:

• Only collect minimally essential information
• Don't use required fields if a all possible- it forces people to redo their work - they won't
• Don't get too personal in the types of information collect
• Include your contact information on the form
• Provide and option for them to be included on your Emailing list - even if you don't send out emails in the future
• Don't restrict the size of a field in terms of number of characters allowed - you can clean up the data later

Keep the form simple if you need more information later you can email or call them.
