When Is the Best Time to Show a Signup Form?

Best practices recommend showing signup forms:

  • After 5–10 seconds of page time.
  • When users scroll 50% of a page.
  • On exit intent to recapture abandoning visitors.
  • After a conversion action, like downloading a resource.

Research from web.dev notes that context and timing matter more than sheer visibility, as poorly timed popups can reduce conversions.
