How to make your Scored Quiz from Scratch:

Step 1: On your Quiz Dashboard, select "+ Create New Quiz"

Step 3: Choose "Scored" for your Quiz


Step 4: First you will customize the cover page of your quiz.

  • Title: We recommend that all scored quiz titles use a catchy title that resonates with your ideal customer and is preferably written in the voice of your ideal customer.

  • Cover Image: Add a cover image that is representative of the quiz. We recommend the quiz cover photo include a person. This has been found to garner more clicks.

  • Cover Page Description: Add a short description that directly addresses the problem and tells the quiz taker that they will find the solution by the end of the quiz.


Questions:

Step 5: Next create your Quiz Questions.

Quiz Question: Make your questions as short as possible using clear and simple language. We recommend 5-7 questions to keep your quiz taker engaged.

  • Quiz Answers: Include 2-6 answer choices per question. The ideal is 4 answer choices per question.

  1. Make sure that there are obvious differences in the answer options. However you do not want too many choices as that will overwhelm your quiz takers and they will not complete your quiz.

  2. You can create text or image answers. We recommend text questions with image answers as this format yields the highest engagement.
