Understanding Timing Settings in Domain Configuration#
The Timing Settings allow you to control the initial appearance and the specific order of your notifications across an entire domain. These settings are essential for ensuring that your most impactful social proof is seen at the right moment.Key Configuration Options#
1. Initial Delay Time#
This setting determines the "waiting period" before the very first notification appears after a visitor lands on your page.How to use: Select a duration from the dropdown menu (e.g., 4 Seconds, as shown in the image).
Best Practice: Use a shorter delay (2–5 seconds) for high-traffic landing pages to build trust immediately. Use a longer delay for content-heavy pages so visitors can start reading before being nudged.
2. Rotation Mode#
This dictates the logic the system uses to move from one active nudge to the next.Sequential Order: Notifications will play in the exact order you have defined in your sequence list.
Random Order: The system will pick a random notification from your active library each time, making the activity feel more organic.
3. Display Sequence#
If you choose Sequential Order, this list allows you to rank your notifications by priority.How it works: You can drag and drop your active nudges (like Live Visitor, Sales Count, and Recent Sales) to create a custom numbered flow.
Why it matters: This ensures your most impressive data (like a high "Live Visitor" count) always greets the user first, followed by specific conversion proof like "Recent Sales."
Why Use Global Timing Settings?#
1. Controlled User Journey#
By setting a fixed sequence, you can "tell a story" with your social proof—starting with overall site popularity and moving toward specific customer successes.Setting an Initial Delay Time prevents the website from feeling "spammy" the moment it loads, giving the visitor a chance to engage with your brand before seeing the first proof point.3. Domain-Wide Consistency#
Because these settings are located in the Domain Configuration, they apply to every page on your site, ensuring a unified experience regardless of where the visitor enters.
💡 Pro Tip#
Try setting a 4-second initial delay and using Sequential Order to show your "Live Visitor" count first. This immediately signals to the user that they are in a busy, popular store before you show them individual sales.Modified at 2026-02-17 17:32:55
