		<description>Sign up pages are so critical.  In all my years, when clients have to come me with issues regarding pages like this, we take a look at the analytics and see the biggest drop-off occurs on pages like this.  Do a little a qualitative research and you find out that people see these pages as barriers.  

Thanks for posting these great examples.</description>

		<description>An issue I often come across is marketing teams wishing to push their communications agenda during registration processes. Ambiguous 'Send me your newsletter' options for example.

What many businesses don't realise that a customer's goal is never to 'register'. Their goal is to use the product or service. Registration is only a means to an end. 

So my advice is to make registration as simple and straightforward as possible, focus on creating a seamless customer journey - and most importantly, communicate with your customers at appropriate moments. Registration is usually not one of them!

Here's a recent example of where I battled with this issue:

		<description>Ahh, David, thanks for bringing up the issue of return. Could there be a easier  place to measure success  :-)  The percentage of people that complete a sign up process is just such a no brainer as a measure of success, and usually on of the few metrics that's easy to ascertain.</description>
