QR Code Best Practices

  • Use short URLs: Shorter URLs create simpler QR codes that scan faster and more reliably.
  • Add UTM parameters: Track QR code scans in Google Analytics by adding UTM tags to your URLs.
  • Test before printing: Always test your QR code with multiple devices before mass printing.
  • Ensure adequate contrast: Dark codes on light backgrounds work best. Avoid low-contrast color combinations.
  • Size matters: QR codes should be at least 2cm x 2cm for reliable scanning from arm's length.
  • Include a call-to-action: Tell users what they'll get by scanning: "Scan for 20% off" or "Scan to learn more"

Tracking QR Code Performance

  • Use unique URLs: Create separate landing pages or UTM tags for each QR placement.
  • Track in analytics: Monitor traffic from QR-specific UTM parameters in Google Analytics.
  • Use URL shorteners: Services like Bitly provide click analytics for your QR destinations.
  • A/B test placements: Compare performance across different locations and materials.
