intent usually don’t hurt the UX.

a clear and distraction-free CTA.3 The more options you offer the fewer
actions your visitors will usually take.
6. They offer one more
chance to convert leads.4 You can reinforce your initial offer by
repeating the CTA used on the main page.
7. They are relatively risk-free.
5 The visitors you are targeting are
already about to leave so there is
nothing to lose.

your potential customers will never actually get
to know your product and the value it offers.
Things to Remember When Designing Pop-Ups:
9. Polish up your copy
2 Craft a short, yet bold description that will
perfectly convey the intended message in
as few words as possible.
10. Put it into context
3 The worst thing you can do is display a
pop-up that has no information related
to a user’s session
11. Let them quit (if they want to)
4 Your exit pop-up should always have some
sort of a close button, evident and clear.
12. Don’t be annoying
5 If your visitors click the negative CTA to
close the window, refrain from showing that
same pop-up to them for up to one month.
13. Leverage social proof
6 Your pop-up can show some of the known
companies you’ve worked with or simply
highlight your happy customers as a proof
that you can be trusted.
14. Play with formats
7 The only way to build a pop-up that works for
you is by testing out different options and
analyzing how your audience reacts to them.
