Funnels in HoopAI are linear sequences of pages that guide a visitor through a single, focused journey — each page is called a step, and visitors move through them in a fixed order. Unlike websites, which support free navigation, funnels are built for conversion: every element is designed to drive one specific action at each stage.

## Getting started

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a funnel">
    Navigate to **Sites > Funnels** and click **+ New Funnel**. Choose to start from a blank canvas, generate a draft with Funnel AI, or pick a template from the library.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add and arrange steps">
    In the **Steps** tab, add each page in your funnel sequence. Drag to reorder them. Common starting flows are: landing page → opt-in form → thank-you page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Design each step">
    Open each step in the drag-and-drop builder. Add your headline, copy, form, images, and call-to-action button. Every step can have its own unique design.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect a domain">
    Go to **Settings** and assign a domain or subdomain. A funnel cannot be reached by visitors until a domain is connected.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish and track">
    Set each step to published, then monitor performance in the **Stats** tab — page views, opt-in rate, and revenue are broken down per step.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Frequently asked questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What is the difference between a funnel and a website?">
    A funnel is a linear sequence of pages with no navigation menu — visitors move from one step to the next in a fixed order. A website lets visitors navigate freely between pages. Use a funnel when you want to focus a visitor on a single conversion action. Use a website for a full brand presence with multiple pages.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Do I need a custom domain to publish a funnel?">
    Yes. A funnel must have a connected domain or subdomain before visitors can access it. You can build and preview a funnel without a domain, but it will not be publicly reachable until one is assigned in the funnel's Settings tab.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I add an order form and take payments inside a funnel?">
    Yes. The order forms feature lets you add a product checkout directly to a funnel step. After purchase, you can present an upsell or downsell offer on the next step to increase the average order value.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How do I test which version of a funnel step converts better?">
    Use the A/B testing feature to create two variants of a step. The platform splits traffic between them and tracks which variant generates more opt-ins or purchases. Once a winner is clear, you can pause the losing variant.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I share a funnel with another HoopAI account?">
    Yes. The funnel sharing feature generates a shareable snapshot link. When another account imports the link, they receive a copy of the funnel's steps and design — without any of your account's live data.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How do I install a Facebook or Google Ads pixel on my funnel?">
    Open the funnel's Settings tab and add the pixel code in the tracking section, or use the Tracking Pixels feature to add it to specific steps. The pixel fires on all pages it is applied to.
