Redirecting users to a custom thank you page after they submit a form is a great way to enhance user experience and drive engagement. In this quick guide, you’ll learn how to set it up using the Hostinger Website Builder.
Why Use a Thank You Page?
By default, Hostinger displays a small “Thank You” message on the same page after a form is submitted. While that’s functional, a dedicated thank you page allows you to:
- Acknowledge the user’s message more clearly
- Provide next steps like visiting your blog or services
- Track form conversions more effectively
Step 1: Log Into Your Hostinger Website Builder
Head to your Hostinger account, go to your Websites dashboard, and click Edit Website next to the one you’re working on.
Step 2: Create a New Contact Page
Go to Pages & Navigation, click Add Page, and select a Contact template. This is where your form will live.
Step 3: Preview the Default Behavior
Visit your new contact page and test the form. After submitting, you’ll see a simple message. That’s what we’re going to upgrade.
Step 4: Create a Custom Thank You Page
- Go back to Pages & Navigation
- Click Add Page and choose an Empty Page
- Add a Text Element that says something like:
“Thank you for reaching out. Your message has been received. We’ll get back to you within 24 to 48 hours. In the meantime, feel free to browse our [blog] or [services] page.” - Add links to your blog and services directly in the message
- Click Save and Update Website
Step 5: Hide the Thank You Page from Navigation
By default, new pages appear in the main menu. To hide the thank you page:
- Go to Pages & Navigation
- Find the page under “Hidden from Navigation”
- Click the three dots and select Hide from Navigation
Step 6: Redirect the Contact Form
- Go back to your Contact Page
- Click the form, then Edit Form
- Switch to the Button tab
- Under “When visitor submits a form,” choose Link to Page
- Select your new thank you page from the list
Step 7: Rename and Finalize
You may want to rename your thank you page to keep things tidy:
- Go to Pages & Navigation
- Click the three dots next to the thank you page
- Choose Rename, enter “Thank You Page,” and click Save
That’s It!
Now when someone fills out your contact form, they’ll be redirected to a polished and professional thank you page—no coding required.
