interruption in conversion marketing

Interruption

Definition

An attention-driven design technique that purposely breaks the flow of the user experience to capture their attention – for example, a hard visual design break or the use of a pop-up when leaving a page. Interruption can be powerful but should be used sparingly to avoid pissing people off.

“Use interruption to hijack your users' eyes and draw attention to your offer or call to action.”
