The Average Popup Conversion Rate
As reported by Optimonk, the average pop-up conversion rate is 11.09%. However, this can vary depending on the types of popups that you will use on your Divi website.
For example, the newsletter subscription popup above can convert more users than a cart abandonment popup.
Some other factors that can influence the popup’s conversion rates include the design and layout of the pop-up, the timing and frequency, the relevance of the offer, and the user’s current browsing behavior or engagement with the website.
Moreover, targeting can also play a role in conversion rates. This is where A/B testing and optimization can help you identify which popup elements are most effective in increasing conversions.
Optimizing Popups for Mobile
According to Getsitecontrol, popups displayed on mobile devices delivered better average click-rates when compared to desktops.
Of course, the usage of mobile devices increases by the day. However, since mobile screens are smaller than desktop, this is where popups take up a larger portion of the screen, making them more prominent and harder to ignore.
Additionally, mobile users may be more likely to be in a “micro-moment” where they are looking for a specific piece of information or ready to take a quick action, making them more likely to engage with the pop-up.
Images as a Must-Have Popup Element
Based on research conducted by Drip, popups that include images convert better than popups that don’t have images by 83.5%.
Images can make a popup visually appealing and grab the user’s attention more effectively.
Additionally, in some cases such as product sales, images can convey the message or offer more clearly than text alone, making it more likely that the user will interact with the pop-up.
The Highest-Performing Popups
According to SumoMe, the average conversion rate of the very best popups was 9.28%.
This is a conversion rate that would make your Divi popups one of the most effective on the web.
If that’s the case, it means that you’ve effectively and efficiently communicated a clear and relevant message or offer that resonates with your target audience.
The Number of Fields in Popups
As researched by Wisepops, popups with only one signup field have the highest conversion rate of 4.3%, followed by popups with four fields with 3.45%.
This makes total sense. The more fields a popup has, the more friction it creates for the user. This can lead to a lower conversion rate as users may be less likely to complete the form if it requires too much effort.
It’s important to strike a balance between the amount of information being requested and the user’s willingness to provide it, while also making the form easy to use and understand.
