Okay \u2013 in the interests of transparency, we\u2019re obviously big fans of Riddle quizmaker. After all, this review is posted on our blog, right? Looking at Quiz-maker vs Riddle, they\u2019re both very strong quiz makers \u2013 and each has their own unique mix of capabilities and features. Choosing the \u2018best\u2019 quiz maker isn\u2019t a one-size fits all recommendation. It comes down to deciding which features will meet your specific marketing goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quiz-Maker \u2013 an overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Quiz-maker was one of the earliest companies to work on providing easy to build, easy to embed quizzes. They\u2019re a great story \u2013 founded by two friends in a garage in Sydney, Australia back in 2004. Initially designed for education, a key Quiz-maker strength concerns their unique security features to ensure only the right people are taking your quiz. They\u2019ve added things like placing a \u2018reCAPTCHA\u2019 before each quiz, advanced Fingerprinting, IP Tracking and VPN detection, and more. If you\u2019re super security-conscious, and are worried about spam or quiz fraud \u2013 this could be a big selling point. However, the downside of being such a long-standing quiz engine is that Quiz-maker hasn\u2019t evolved as quickly as others we\u2019ve reviewed. On the engagement side, they have a limited number of quiz and poll types \u2013 and the user interface looks a little 2014. The internet is continually evolving \u2013 and we\u2019ve found audiences respond best to polished, modern quiz designs.
This legacy architecture also carries over to the lead generation side of things. Quiz-maker has basic lead forms \u2013 but not a great deal of customization options in terms of the number or type of fields. For example, they provide name, email, and contact numbers \u2013 but not drop downs or radio buttons best suited to solicit lead feedback (e.g. \u201cWhat is your marketing budget this year?\u201d). Time and date pickers for demo calls or meeting appointments are also not included \u2013 nor are the hidden URL and text fields<\/a> that are useful for identifying the traffic source of each lead (and optimize your ad spend accordingly).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Riddle quizmaker – an overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The advantages to your editorial\/marketing teams? They\u2019ll have a wide range of creative tools in their arsenal \u2013 which allows the flexibility to craft content around any campaign goal.
If you are debating between Quiz-maker vs Riddle, consider how our wider range of quiz types will prevent the \u2018quiz burnout\u2019 that comes from showing the same quiz type to your audience, over and over again. Our mantra? Keep quizzes fresh and interesting \u2013 for best results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why are quiz makers so effective for marketing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Quizzes have been getting a lot of buzz for marketers over the past few years \u2013 they excel at getting your audience engaged, clicking, and sharing (AdWeek says quizzes are some of the most shared content online<\/a>).
But equally, marketing gurus from Neil Patel to Larry Myler know that quizzes are excellent at lead generation<\/a> \u2013 they turn passive readers into active participants with your site\/product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quizzes and lead generation \u2013 a natural combination<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Answering questions during a quiz feels comfortable and no-pressure. And best of all? Since each person is just taking a quiz to find out more about themselves; they don\u2019t view this as part of a \u2018sales process\u2019.
Any good quiz maker will let you add a lead generation form between the users\u2019 questions and quiz results. Research has found this is a perfect spot for high opt-in rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Your audience is emotionally invested \u2013 and keen to see their results. Plus, after answering your quiz questions, they\u2019re also \u2018active\u2019 \u2013 psychologically ready to click yes to a well-timed offer, especially if it\u2019s connected to their quiz results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re gathering leads with Riddle, we designed a drag\/drop form builder \u2013 giving you complete flexibility when you create your forms. We have also added 17 types of lead generation blocks that you can customize; everything from fonts to layout and backgrounds.
Most importantly, quiz lead generation is only as good if you can send data to your favorite marketing or email CRM. We let you connect to over 1400 different software tools (including SalesForce, Infusionsoft, and far too many to list) \u2013 with no coding needed. Without need for developers \u2013 we let you get started collecting leads right away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
