Buyers are becoming fussier. If you don’t provide a delightful and error-free experience with your brand or website, you’re likely losing out on conversions, leads, and clients.
One of the most critical elements of your landing pages and conversion paths is your form, which acts as the gateway between a user and you—either keeping the visitor a stranger to your company or helping turn that visitor into a lead for your company.

- Which pages are most likely to result in a purchase?
- Which pages cause most people to drop off?
