Personalizing Quizzes & Forms with UTM Parameters
Introduction
UTM parameters are powerful tools that not only track user engagement but also personalize online quizzes and forms. By appending these parameters to your quiz URLs, you can gain valuable insights into your audience, streamline their experience, and optimize your marketing efforts. This practice enhances both the user experience and the effectiveness of your campaigns.
Using UTM Parameters: Practical Examples
UTM parameters can be applied in various ways to boost marketing performance and user interaction:
Pre-filling User Details
In email campaigns, where recipient details (e.g., name and email) are already known, UTM parameters can pre-fill these fields in the quiz. This creates a seamless user experience, reducing friction and increasing engagement.
Tracking Traffic Sources
Assign unique UTM parameters to URLs shared on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, or your website. This helps track where each participant originates, providing actionable insights into which channels drive the most engagement.
For example:
https://app.quizell.com/quiz/RJ7hfCOawFhKlJkHKOD6MS178500?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=quiz_promoCustomizing Your Quiz Loader
UTM parameters aren't limited to tracking—they can also be used to customize quiz loaders, offering a branded experience right from the start. For instance, parameters like selectedLoader and selectedLoaderColor allow you to define the type and color of the loader that appears when the quiz is loading.

Adding UTM Parameters to Quiz URLs
