Best Practices for Form Design

Best Practices:

- Review every question and ask “do I have to ask this? or can I infer it some automated way?”

- “Strive for succinctness” in all questions/labels

- When short labels may be confusing…use natural language to clarify questions.

- Ensure forms speak with a single voice.

- Organzie content into logical groups.

- Structure forms as a conversation.

ps…I’ve stolen all these brilliant ideas from “Web Form Design” by Luke Wroblewski
