Self
Test is always highly sensitive AP area. Many a designer tends
to take a quite mechanic approach with loads of unnecessary
questions which distract site visitors, rather than guide them
toward the application. Emotionless, automatic questions may
bring about unpleasant feelings and impression. Your visitors
may never come back to your site... Therefore, it is my
suggestion to introduce the minimum number of questions:
| 1. |
The
questions should be friendly |
| 2. |
The
questions should target your AP mission (an applicant
should fill-in within submit form) |
| 3. |
such
questions as: "Did you have your site spell checked
etc?" treat an applicant as a completely ignorant
person, putting him down... it is non-ethical |
| 4. |
Self
Test should play a twofold role: to be friendly-oriented
and to help applicants choose the most essential
elements of your AP requirements depending on the site
mission |
