It’s hard to throw shade at Google Forms. It really is an amazing product!

You can:

  1. Create surveys or quizzes
  2. Collect information from viewers
  3. Validate data
  4. Access many features related to sharing and security
  5. Get data right into a Google Sheet
  6. Use it for free!

For a survey among friends, family, classmates, or co-workers, what more do you need?

If you’re just starting out building an audience for your newsletter, creating a list of early adopters for your business, or trying to do some product validation, adding a Google Form to your website is really all you need.

However… #

What if your target demographic cares about how it looks?

What if you are in a design industry or a business where the culture demands a certain level of quality?

Maybe. Maybe not.

Are you willing to take that chance?

It probably depends on how hard it would be for you to collect the data without using an embedded Google Form.

If only there was a simple way to add a form to your website that actually looks like it belongs there.

Oh, hey! #

Turns out there is a simple way to add a form to your website that:

  • Doesn’t use an iframe to embed the form
  • Gets data into a Google Sheet
  • Uses the styling of the site
  • Is free

…and if you clicked “Send” then you just used it!

It’s called GoodSheet.io.

Go ahead, hit “Send” a few more times. Or check out the live demo.

AGAIN, no shade towards Google Forms, but if you are looking for another way to collect that information and keep your site looking nice and polished, here it is!
