We are constantly amazed by the support and engagement of our community and are truly grateful for the opportunity to help businesses grow and succeed. 🚀
The real cherry on top is our impressive average popup conversion rate of 6.86%.

We've also served up a total of 89,603,634 popup displays to users.
That's something worth celebrating! 🥳
The Most Popular Triggers Were…
URL Targeting became the most popular trigger this year!
Through URL targeting, you can target users who are navigating to a particular webpage of yours with a popup.
It's like the website giving visitors a virtual hug and saying "We have special offers & content about what you are looking for!"
Also, if you don't want to add a popup on each page of your website, you can select the URLs of the page you want to include using this targeting.
You can target pages with specific keywords or adjust certain keywords to match according to your goals.
It's a useful tool for capturing the attention of the right audience, which appears to be loved by many of you.
After X Seconds also got your attention as the second most used targeting.
With the After X Seconds feature, you can display targeted popups to users based on their physical location.
You can use the "After X Seconds" trigger to avoid overwhelming your visitors with immediate popups on your webpage.
While reaching the right audience is important, reaching them at the right time is crucial as well. By setting the After X Seconds, considering your campaign timing goals, you can present your offer or make announcements at the proper time.
You can use customizable templates with precise targeting for various business needs or create campaigns with unique segmentation abilities.
Your Most Favorite Templates in 2023
The most favorite template award goes to:
Combining text input, email input, notice and consent, and button elements, this popup became the perfect solution for those who wanted to collect form submissions.
Here is the second favorite template you can't get enough of:
This one also includes a form element, which is email input, and a minimal yet effective call-to-action button.
With the attention-grabbing headline "Hey You!" this template was a hit for those who want to quickly encourage visitors to take action.
We Enhanced Playbook with Various Popup Templates
To help our users find what they are looking for in their campaigns easily, we enriched Popupsmart Playbook with a wide range of popup templates!
Business objective and goal categories in Playbook, such as promoting products & offers, collecting form submissions, increasing user engagement, and gamifying your campaign, helped users create conversion-ready campaigns for their specific goals.
With industry-specific popups for health & beauty, e-commerce, food & beverage, education, travel, and automotive, our users got the most out of their campaigns and stood out from the competition in their industries.
We also have industry-based solutions pages that you can explore according to your goals!
- Food & Beverage industry solutions
- Health & Beauty industry solutions
- E-commerce industry solutions
- Automotive industry solutions
- Education industry solutions
- Travel industry solutions
With seasonal popup categories based on back-to-school, Black Friday & Cyber Monday, Christmas, Easter, Halloween, and Valentine's Day, we gathered the most converting popup templates for seasonal campaigns.

Our new targeting solution Shopify Audience Targeting joined the club and accompanied Shopify store owners in achieving their target goals!

Social Media Growth 2023: A Year in Review
As we delved deeper into social media marketing in 2023, we experienced incredible engagement and growth!
Now, let's look back at what we accomplished on each platform this year with your help.
You Watched Us 522,371 Times on YouTube
Yesss, we made it to 522,371 viewers! 🤩
With 522,371 views, 4357.4 watch time hours, and 881 new subscribers, we were over the moon to capture your precious time & attention.
And let's not forget the 4,385 likes - as they say, the cream always rises to the top.
Speaking of great content, it's no surprise that our top three most-watched videos were:
- Help Earthquake Victims in Türkiye with a Donation Popup
- Boost Conversions with Popupsmart's 60% Black Friday Sale
- How to Create a Popup in Shopify Without an App for Free
These tutorials were clearly a hit, and we're glad they were helpful to so many of you. 🥰
But our YouTube success went beyond those three videos. 👀
This year, we published 319 videos, all thanks to our great video marketing team's hard work & dedication and, of course, our top YouTube star Nazli.
We couldn't have done it without her!
Last but not least, we want to give a special shoutout to India & the United States for being the top viewing countries on our channel.
Thank you for your support & interest, which makes our YouTube channel a success! 💙
The X (Formerly Twitter) Got Surprised by All the Mentions
This year, we published 4 informative threads every week, covering everything from how to build a high-quality email list to a list of the best AI tools for e-commerce.
We were thrilled to gain 197 new followers this year, and we appreciate each and every one of them.
But the love didn't stop there - we were also mentioned in a ton of tweets from famous companies like LottieFiles, users & experts, who were kind enough to recommend us as a great tool for boosting brand conversion.
We couldn't be more grateful for the support and are thrilled to see our hard work paying off.
We Could Not Resist TikTok Hype
We couldn't fight the temptation of creating TikTok content!
So, we shared 215 TikTok videos and gained 2,450 likes! 🎊
While it's not much compared to some of the Gen Z TikTok stars out there, we're proud of our humble beginnings, and we know that good content will eventually find its way into TikTokers' hearts.
So, if you want to see more of our (hopefully fun & informative) content, feel free to follow Popupsmart on TikTok!
We Were Impressed on Pinterest
We were overjoyed by our 1.68M impressions, 31.24K engagements, and 661.74K total audience on Pinterest!
We shared a wide range of our popup templates, email marketing examples, and much content that can inspire you!

Get ready for some more fun, creative, and engaging Pinterest boards from us!
You Could Not Take Your Eyes Off These 3 Blogs
With the huge number of visitors coming to check out our content, it's clear that our focus on organic traffic paid off, and we're glad to see such engagement from our readers.
One of the highlights of the year was the success of our blog, which featured a number of popular articles, including:
These articles struck a chord with our audience, and we're glad they were able to provide valuable information and insights.
We can't wait to see what the future holds and to continue providing top-quality content for our readers.
The Most Used Popupsmart Micro Tool Award Goes to…
One of the standout successes of the past year has been our micro tool, the Cookie Consent Popup Creator solution.
This handy and FREE tool lets users instantly add a cookie consent popup to their website, helping them comply with cookie laws.
It's no surprise that it was so popular - users loved it so much that we created an imaginary award for it, the "Most Used Micro Tool" award. (Okay, so it's not an actual award, but we like to think it should be!)
In all seriousness, we're thrilled to see such enthusiasm for the Popup Cookie Creator tool, and we're grateful to our users for their support.
The Fun Never Stopped, and It Won't Any Time Soon
At Popupsmart, the fun never stops, and we don't plan on slowing down anytime soon.
From quarterly meetings to exciting events, we've kept the good times rolling all year long.
We celebrated our dear team members' birthdays and cherished the moments we got together during our meetings. 🥰
We Gathered All for Our Quarterly Meetings
Even if we work mostly remotely, we know how important it is for the whole team to connect and come together.
That's why we made sure to gather everyone for these special gatherings throughout the year.
Sponsorship of Networking at JavaScript Sessions
In addition to these internal events, we also sponsored various networking JavaScript Sessions, bringing together experts from around the industry to share their knowledge and insights.
We Were Pretty Happy on Fridays
And, of course, we made sure to inject some fun into every work week by celebrating happy hours on Fridays (and sometimes Mondays, Tuesdays, or Wednesdays 😉).
It's all about finding the right balance between work and play!
Thanks for sticking with us in 2023!
There's no doubt that even greater things are on the horizon, and we're grateful to have you by our side as we continue to grow and evolve.
