Email Verification for Forms & Surveys
Introducing Email Verification for Surveys and Forms
In the world of digital marketing and data collection, ensuring the authenticity of email addresses submitted through forms and surveys is paramount. Recognizing this need, the team at Gold Star Pro is thrilled to introduce a groundbreaking feature: Email Verification. This feature is designed to enhance the integrity of data collection processes by verifying the authenticity of email addresses.
How It Works: A Step-by-Step Guide
Setting Up: The process begins by dragging an email field into your form or survey. An option to "validate email" appears, which, when enabled, introduces a "verify email" button to the form.
Verification Process:
The user is prompted to click the "verify email" button upon filling out their email address.
Subsequently, they receive an email containing a unique verification code.
To proceed, the user must enter this verification code into the form, confirming the authenticity of their email address.
Confirmation: Upon successful verification, a message confirms the email address has been successfully verified. This allows the user to complete and submit the form.
Backend Verification: For form administrators, the email field within the database updates to indicate that the email address has been verified.
This feature is not only limited to forms but is also available for surveys, following the same verification process.
Why Email Verification Matters
Enhancing Data Integrity: By verifying email addresses, organizations can ensure that they collect data from genuine, interested parties. This is crucial for businesses seeking quality leads over quantity.
Preventing Fake Submissions: The verification process acts as a deterrent against bots and individuals using fictitious email addresses, thereby protecting the integrity of the data collected.
Encouraging Serious Inquiries: The extra step of email verification means that only those truly interested in engaging with the content or offer are likely to complete the process.
Implementation and Impact
The introduction of email verification responds to a long-standing demand for improved data quality. It represents a significant step towards filtering out unauthentic submissions, ensuring that only emails capable of receiving and acknowledging the verification code are collected. This does not completely eliminate the possibility of determined individuals using secondary emails, but it substantially increases the likelihood that the emails collected are genuine and actionable.
In summary, the email verification feature is a testament to Gold Star Pro's commitment to enhancing the quality of leads and data collected through forms and surveys. Its implementation is a direct result of listening to customer feedback and underscores the value placed on user input. As this feature goes live on both forms and surveys, it heralds a new era of data collection marked by enhanced authenticity and reliability.
