[IxDA Discuss] Email Registration

2008-03-04 Thread Jason Wei Lee
Hi list, 

When designing sites, I often come up against the question of what required 
fields to include for an Email Registration form.  By Email Registration I mean 
registering for updates/promotions from the site.

I have always felt that less fields is a better approach (ie. just email 
address if possible), but sometimes various stakeholders want to capture other 
data like name and location so it can be used for other marketing efforts.

Any thoughts/research on this?  Like are people people deterred when they see 
too many fields?

Thanks,
Jason
