General – Page Targeting<\/h3>\n

Page targeting allows you to select specific pages of your website within the tool of your choice. That can mean either including certain pages or excluding certain pages depending on what you are trying to accomplish. For example, try using it to ask a different question on your home page versus a product page versus the checkout page. You poke the user to ask if they have a question about checkout versus just prompting them on the homepage. You gain many more user insights by asking them different questions around the site.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

How to set up individual page targets:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This feature is especially useful if you want to have an easy way to test Ochatbot with your team. Set up the target to a rarely viewed page, like the privacy policy, then have your team review the bot.<\/p>\n

1. Click the “Add Page Target” button.<\/p>\n

2. Select the “Matches exactly” option and enter the full URL of the page you want to target.<\/p>\n

3. Select the Launch question from the drop-down you want to display on that specific page.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 Save the changes.<\/p>\n

How to set up different launch questions with page targeting<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Enhance the Ochatbot experience by launching different questions on different pages. For instance, create a unique question for shoppers on the checkout page.<\/p>\n

1. Click the “Add Page Target” button.<\/p>\n

2. Select the “Regular Expression” option.\u00a0<\/p>\n

3. In the Regular Expression field enter this RegEx:(\u00a0 .* ) Exclude the parentheses. This expression means the chosen question will launch on most webpages.<\/p>\n

4. Click Save.<\/p>\n

5. Now repeat steps 1 and 2 again.<\/p>\n

6. Select “Matches Exactly” and enter the desired URL.<\/p>\n

7. Select the Launch question from the drop-down you want to display on that specific page.<\/p>\n

8. Click save.<\/p>\n

The order of the page targeting is critical the target (.*) must occupy the first spot for this to work. See the image below.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Test the page targeting:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

– Visit the pages you’ve targeted and verify that the correct content or question is displayed. – Check the pages that should have the default question to ensure it’s working as expected.<\/p>\n

Optimize and refine:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

– Monitor user feedback and behavior to identify any areas for improvement. – Adjust the page targeting settings as needed to enhance the user experience. – Consider adding more specific page targets or refining the default question.<\/p>\n

Other RegEx:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Using RegEx is pretty powerful and because of this it can seem pretty confusing but for most applications there are only a few things to remember. However if you would like to learn more advanced techniques visit the RegEx page<\/a>. If you want to do a test but not on your site try\u00a0https:\/\/regex101.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n
