Thank you pages do more than just say "cheers" after someone buys something or fills out a form. They're your chance to guide visitors to the next step, whether that's checking out related products, following you on social media, or simply feeling good about their decision to engage with your brand.
With Hostinger Website Builder, creating these pages is straightforward. You get drag-and-drop tools, decent templates, and the ability to connect everything to your forms and checkout process without needing to mess about with code.
Setting Up Your Thank You Page
Access Your Website Builder
Log into your Hostinger account and click on the Website Builder from your dashboard. If you've already got a site running, you'll be adding a new page to your existing setup.
Choose Your Starting Point
Hostinger offers templates you can use as a foundation, or you can start with a blank page. Templates save time, but starting fresh gives you complete control over the layout and design.
The key is picking something that won't clash with your existing site. Your thank you page should feel like part of the same experience, not like visitors have landed somewhere completely different.
Build Your Page Content
Use the drag-and-drop editor to add the elements you need:
Essential elements:
- A clear headline confirming the action was successful
- A brief message that matches your brand voice
- Your logo or brand elements for consistency
- Next steps or calls to action
Optional but useful:
- Special offers or discount codes for future purchases
- Links to related products or content
- Social media follow buttons
- Contact information or support links
Keep the message focused. People have just completed an action, so don't overwhelm them with too many options or lengthy text blocks.
Connect Your Page to Forms and Checkout
This is where things get technical, but Hostinger makes it manageable. You need to set up redirects so people actually land on your thank you page after completing their action.
For contact forms, you'll configure the form settings to redirect to your thank you page URL after submission. For e-commerce, you'll set the post-purchase redirect in your checkout settings.
Double-check these connections work by testing them yourself. Submit a form or make a test purchase to ensure the redirect happens smoothly.
Add Tracking and Measurement
If you're using Google Analytics or other tracking tools, make sure they're set up to monitor your thank you page visits. This data helps you understand conversion rates and identify any issues with your funnel.
You can also set up specific goals in Analytics to track when people reach your thank you page, giving you concrete numbers on how your forms and checkout process are performing.
Getting Better Results
Your first version won't be perfect, and that's fine. The point is to get something live and then improve it based on how people actually use it.
Consider testing different messages, offers, or layouts to see what works best with your audience. Some businesses find that offering a small discount on the thank you page increases repeat purchases. Others get better results by focusing on social proof or directing people to helpful resources.
The data from your tracking will tell you what's working and what isn't.
