Form Types

Build a contact form for your website

A contact form is usually the highest-traffic form on a website and the one people put the least thought into. Adding a topic field and two qualifying questions turns anonymous "hello" messages into enquiries your team can actually prioritise.

How to create a contact form in Formblyt

  1. Keep the core to four fields

    Name, email, topic and message. That is the whole baseline contact form.

  2. Add a topic selector

    Sales, support, partnership, careers — this one field decides who reads the message.

  3. Qualify sales enquiries

    Use conditional logic to ask budget, timeline or company size only when the topic is sales.

  4. Set expectations on submit

    Write a confirmation message that states your real response time.

  5. Embed or link it

    Put the short link behind a Contact button, or share the QR code on print material.

  6. Work the inbox

    Filter submissions by topic in the dashboard and export leads to your CRM.

What to include in a contact form

These are the fields most small businesses, agencies, freelancers and website owners end up needing. Start with them, then cut anything you will not act on — shorter forms get finished.

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Phone number (optional)
  • Company or organisation
  • Topic of enquiry
  • Message
  • Budget range (sales enquiries only)
  • Timeline (sales enquiries only)
  • How did you hear about us
  • Consent to be contacted

Frequently asked questions

Can I add the contact form to my website?

Publish the form and link your Contact button to the short link, or place the QR code on print material. The form opens as a fast, branded page on any device.

How do I reduce spam?

Use a topic dropdown and required structured fields rather than a single free-text box, and keep an eye on the responses dashboard — structured forms attract far less junk than an exposed email address.

Can enquiries go to different teams?

Use the topic field to categorise, then filter by topic in the dashboard or on export to route each group to the right team.

Is the contact form free to use?

Yes. You can build and publish a contact form on the Formblyt free plan, within the free plan's monthly form and response limits. Paid plans raise those limits and unlock branding removal and advanced analytics.

Do respondents need an account?

No. Anyone with the link or QR code can complete the form in a browser. You can optionally require an email address if you need to identify each respondent.
