How To Create A Stylish Contact Page For Blogger

In today's tutorial, we are going to show you how to create a stylish contact page for Blogger in less than no time and without any special coding skills.

Blogger by default has a contact widget which can be added to any widget section for your visitors to get in touch. But may people will rather have a contact page where this widget will appear. Unfortunately, there is no such option to insert widget directly inside a page. But there is a way to create a customise HTML widget code and add into a page in order to create a beautify and stylish contact page.

In today's tutorial, we are going to show you how to create a stylish contact page for Blogger in less than no time and without any special coding skills.

Why use a contact page with a contact form on your site?

• A contact form allows your prospective client to stay on your site. Just posting an email address requires the visitor to open up their email client, copy/paste or type your email address, and then write their message there. They’ve gone off your site and into their inbox, which is setting them up to get distracted and possibly even fail to get in touch at all.
• It reduces spam. Putting an email address out on the internet is basically begging for more spam. Protecting your email address makes it harder for spammers to find you, which reduces your email burden and saves you time. It’s easy to share your email address with your new contact once they’ve filled out your form, and you’ve bypassed a bit of gunk in your spam filters in the meantime.
• It allows you to vet new prospects. A contact form allows you to request, or even require, specific pieces of information before the form is sent. This sets up filters that are working for you before the new inquiry even comes to you. Ask about what type of work the prospect is interested in when the best time to reach them is, and what their phone number is.
• It’s easier for the user. Contact forms can often sync up with the visitor’s browser autofill features, making it even easier and faster to fill out. It’s simple, it’s straightforward, and it’s less clunky than shifting to an email client and then coming back to your site.  And in my experience, I’ve found that many web users prefer a contact form rather than sending an email to an email address.

Adding a stylish contact page to your Blogger blog

• After adding the contact form gadget, head to "Theme >> Edit HTML" and then search for the following line of code

• Now, if you have some texts to enter before the contact widget, write it down. Then switch to the "HTML" part, copy the code from below and paste it there. Update or publish contact page and there you go.

You can then customise the colours the way you like. The contact page we use here can serve as a demo.
