1. Spam – Placing your email address on a contact page allows spam bots to find it and greatly increases the amount of spam you receive.
2. Appearance – A contact form simply looks more professional than slapping your email address on a page. You want your website to look as nice as possible, right?

The contact form on your PPC and SEO landing page can make or break your conversation rate. The messaging on your landing page can be clear, concise and benefit-driven. The design can be attractive, simple and conversion focused. But if the contact form on this beautiful landing page is not strategically crafted to suite your core audience, you’re probably leaving money on the table.
We are very excited to announce that next week we will be kicking off a five day blog series centered around the topic of “Online Forms That Convert”! We will run a post each day, starting on Monday, that will focus on how you can build different types of forms that convert to more submissions, more inquiries, more online orders, and most importantly more business for your organization. We have some great guest bloggers tee’d up to provide some very quality content. We will be building the series from how to build forms all the way to how to treat your customer once you have their data.
Many organizations use FormSpring for things like contact forms, order forms and event registrations. But one important overlooked aspect of what you can do with FormSpring is the ability to create and quickly deploy surveys or customer/user feedback forms. Surveys don’t have to be done by big corporations and they don’t have to be long and arduous. Quick, effective, online surveys can allow your organization to gain valuable feedback from your customers or users. A while back we wrote about some tips for your contact forms so we thought we would give you some tips on how your organizations can use and deploy surveys.
