Your best option for the website

iridize.com

There are various

ways to highlight new

features.

We’ll list both

advantages and

disadvantages:

On-page Onboarding Solutions

Splash Screen

A message that loads before the rest of the

website, prompting manual response.

Splash screens have been getting more popular

lately – they always include a Call To Action.

iridize.com

Be careful, though – if

it is abused, users will

get used to ignoring it

and develop a blind

spot after a while.

Tooltip

Simple, elegant, none-

intrusive. You can

draw attention to the

new feature’s

button/tab by pointing

to it with a tooltip.

Meaning, you can

determine how many

times a user views a

certain notification,

making sure they

don’t reach the

blind-spot stage.

Site Tour

Combine the notification with a short

tutorial on how to use the feature.

Helpful to users who have no patience to

browse off-page to the knowledgebase

for every new feature.

iridize.com

Tailor your:

Web page

Form

SaaS application

…to hide and reveal certain

fields, per activation rules –

optimizing user navigation.

Customized Web Pages

iridize.com

Frequency: over a few days • 1 notification per every 4

Facebook posts • Go wild with Twitter, use

new wording, remember to hashtag.

Notify on Your

Social Media Platforms

iridize.com

Don’t get too

hopeful about social

channels – you can

never know who is

keeping up with their

newsfeed.
