In this post, we temporarily don’t talk about the dark side of popups. Let’s pop into the best practise to use popups for your Shopify stores.

Best Pratices to use Popups for Shopify stores

Only show sales or email capture Popups only ONCE per user

If customers refuse to give their email adress right after they see your email capture pop-ups, they are not likely to enter email adress again even on the 10th time they come to your site. Then if they return to your site, make sure that you won’t annoy them by showing pop-up constantly.

Delayed Popups to avoid annoyment

Everyone get used to the annoying popups appearing right they click on a link. People seem to close these popups right way without reading any text. So consider a delayed pop-up for your site. For example, after they stay in a page for a while, the pop-ups will display or popups only show on scroll or on click.

Use Small Popups

We can’t deny that popup is annoying but we can make it less annoying by making the popups smaller. You can imagine how irritating it is when you are reading something interesting and a sudden large popup blocks what you are seeing. If you implement a smaller popup, customers feel more comfortable and may pay attention to your information.

Popups can be Used for More Than getting email addresses and promoting sales

Have you ever wondered what you can do with popups better than simply getting email addresses and promoting sales? It could be customer service offer. For example , a pop-up asks customers if they would like any support. If yes, they can connect with your support easily through a contact form or a window chat. This ensures that you are giving great customers service.
