Research on the design style of Web registration form (i)

If you want to maximize the benefits of your service, you must maximize the success rate of your site forms. Simply getting users to sign up on your site is not enough, unless you have an idea that allows people who visit your site to look at it with a deep image. In order to maximize the service, our designers need to provide users with a good user experience. We need to invite users to describe how well the service products are, explain to them why they need to fill out the forms and hint that they will be rewarded for their benefits. Of course, we should also make it very convenient for users to participate.

But it's not easy to design a valid page form. There is an indisputable fact that no one likes to fill out a form-whether online or offline. Therefore, as a designer we need to find the right design decisions that make the form simple, straightforward, and even painless.

But how can we pinpoint these decisions? Where should those links in the layout be placed on the form? How should we design it? How should we highlight tags, and how should we arrange them? How does the page form design style fit into a modern web site? We ask ourselves these questions, and we get these results by conducting surveys.

Here's a look at the results of the current Web Form design style for Internet. These results are analyzed by 100 Web sites that have processes associated with Web forms. We decided to start with the registration form.

Registration Form Design Survey

The purpose of the survey is to provide a reference for designers and developers who are directly judged on their effectiveness. We'll also show you some guidelines on how to make Web forms a perfect friendly user interface.

We have selected 100 large Web sites related to Web Forms. These sites are based on the blog search and Alexa rankings, as well as the popularity of search engines to consider the choice. The impact of these Web sites on direct business goals is generally related to their Web forms, so you need to specify a high priority design in the process. In particular, the registration form is the key to explaining why many comment forms come from social types of websites.

We are concerned that the registration form wants to separate more key forms (such as validating forms). We then complete the registration form for each selected site and analyze the design methods of those forms.

We use a special email account and special username in each form, and to make the survey as broad as possible, we point out 29 different design questions and questions that we encounter when designing a Web form.

We classify them and try to find similar design guidelines and design ideas. We try to start with a usability perspective, keep an eye on both positive and negative examples and display them in the survey results.

Please note that this article is not about validating the form-that's another topic for discussion, and we're going to look at it as an article that's about to be discussed independently. We would like to thank Wufoo for providing us with a framework to guide our investigation.
