Things that can Break a Web Form

Now that you have a new website up and running, you’re ready to get leads pouring in.

But what happens when the leads never come? Have you implemented an ongoing SEO program? Have you seen your analytics traffic continue to improve? If so, and you’re not receiving the information from your site, there could be a problem. This is why it is important to test your web forms regularly!

Once your website goes live, you should test each form on your site. Beyond that, test it regularly (even once a month isn’t too often). If you notice a problem, it is important to reach out to a team of professionals immediately.

What Breaks a Web Form?

There are a few reasons that your web forms might not make it directly to you. The first is hackers pilfer your leads. If you’ve regularly had leads come through your website that suddenly halt, your website might have been hacked. They usually execute an unauthorized attack and move your data to another location, skipping over you completely.

The second way your web form might break is due to spam filters. We have regularly seen that many email platforms, Google in particular, are not fond on WordPress web form submissions with the default configuration. These forms do not even make it to your spam box, Google doesn’t even give you the option to see them.

Another way that your web form might break is due to a server upgrade that doesn’t fully implement properly. Most servers do not make you aware when they are upgrading, which is why it is important to always pay attention to patterns in your web form submissions.
