Keep in Mind

Depending on where you keep the lead generation form, certain properties may not be editable. For example, if the lead generation form is placed on the welcome screen, you may not be able to add a heading (as the welcome screen already has its own headline).

You can add as many fields as you want to the form. However, we encourage keeping it short.

Under the Advanced sub-tab on the Lead Gen form, you can enable the Do No Allow Duplicate Leads setting. You can pick and choose which fields need to be checked to restrict duplicates. For example - for some businesses Email ID de-duplication is important whereas some businesses do not allow duplicate combinations of Name and Email Address.

Validate Email

With Outgrow you can restrict invalid emails using the Email Validation feature on the Lead Generation form. This helps in improving deliverability and reducing Email bounce rate.

Emails are categorized as either "deliverable," "undeliverable," "risky," or "unknown." Here's what each means:

*Our Email validation disallows Risky Email addresses. Please note that Accept All, Disposable, and Role addresses are classified as Risky.

🚧

Types Of Email Addresses

Accept All

Some domains accept all emails you send to them, even if the email address is not valid. After an email is sent, the recipient mail server may silently discard the message or send a bounce message after the fact. Capturing an Accept All lead and sending them emails may increase your bounce rates and/or lower your open rates. Therefore, use a degree of caution when sending to Accept All domains.

Role Email Address

A role email is an address that's typically associated with a function (postmaster, support, sales, etc.) instead of a person. In some instances, mailing to a role address can lead to a decreased open rate and is generally advised against while sending marketing email.
