What are Exit Intent Popups?

Gli Exit Intent Popup sono una delle tattiche di marketing digitale più efficaci per convert website visitors into customers. These pop-ups appear when a user is about to navigate away from the page, creating a final opportunity to convince the user to stay or take a specific action, such as subscribing to the newsletter or purchasing a product. They therefore consist of emerging windows that are displayed when a visitor is leaving our site.

Basically, when a user approaches the “X” on the browser tab or quickly moves the mouse to the top of the page, the box appears to stop them and motivate them to stay on the site. With these pop-ups, in fact, it is possible offer an incentive, such as a discount or exclusive content, or invite the user to fill out a form to receive a newsletter or contact the support team.
