80+ Questions Tailored for Every Page Type

Stop using generic questions everywhere. Each page has unique goals and failure modesβ€”your questions should too. Get page-specific surveys with recommended triggers.

Why page-specific questions matter

Generic questions get generic answers. "How was your experience?" might work for a post-purchase survey, but it tells you nothing useful on a pricing page.

The Targeting Principle

Every question should be relevant to what the user is trying to accomplish on that specific page. If the question could apply anywhere, it's probably too generic.

Implementation Guide

Follow these 6 steps to deploy effective page-specific surveys across your site.

1

Prioritize your pages

Start with pages that have the highest traffic AND the biggest impact on your business goals. Common starting points:

  1. Pricing page (high intent, conversion critical)
  2. Homepage (first impression, navigation)
  3. Checkout/signup (conversion, friction)
2

Choose one question per page

Pick the single most important question for each page based on your biggest unknown:

  • β€’ Not sure why people leave? β†’ Friction/barrier question
  • β€’ Suspect confusion? β†’ Clarity question
  • β€’ Content not converting? β†’ Missing info question
3

Set up targeting

Use URL patterns to target specific pages:

/pricing β†’ exact match
/blog/* β†’ all blog posts
/docs/** β†’ all docs including nested
4

Configure triggers

Match triggers to page type:

  • β€’ Content pages: Scroll depth (50-70%)
  • β€’ Conversion pages: Exit intent
  • β€’ Post-action: Page load after completion
5

Add conditional follow-ups

For negative or neutral responses, add an open-text follow-up to capture details. Don't ask for details when someone says "yes, everything was great."

6

Set frequency controls

Prevent survey fatigue:

  • β€’ Once per session per user maximum
  • β€’ Don't survey the same user on multiple pages
  • β€’ 10-20% sampling rate for high-traffic pages

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I survey every page on my site?
No. Start with 3-5 high-impact pages. Expand coverage gradually as you build your review and action process. Surveying everywhere without acting on feedback wastes user goodwill.
How do I choose between similar questions?
Pick the one most aligned with your current goal. If you want to improve conversion, choose friction/barrier questions. If you're validating a redesign, choose clarity questions. You can rotate questions over time.
What if my page type isn't listed?
Identify the page's goal and failure modes. Use the question templates from similar page types. For example, a "request a demo" page is similar to a signup page.
How many responses do I need per page?
Aim for 50-100 responses before drawing conclusions. For quantitative questions (ratings), you need more responses for statistical confidence. For open-text, you'll often see patterns emerge after 30-50 responses.
Should questions differ for mobile vs desktop?
The questions can be the same, but triggers should differ (use scroll instead of exit intent on mobile). Consider asking about mobile-specific issues if you suspect device problems.
How do I avoid survey fatigue?
Use frequency controls: show surveys to 10-20% of visitors, limit to once per session or once per week per user, and don't survey the same user on multiple pages in one visit.
