What Users Usually Do Wrong
Let’s think like a real user.
❌ “My QR Code is not opening the website”
Possible reasons:
You forgot https://
You pasted wrong URL
Your website itself is down
You pasted admin/login URL instead of public page
👉 Solution:Open your link in a browser first.If it works there, it will work in QR too.
❌ “It opens but shows error page”
Check:
Is the page deleted?
Is the domain expired?
Is the page restricted to login users only?
QR can only open what is publicly accessible.
❌ “It opens desktop version, looks bad on mobile”
That means your website is not mobile optimized.
Remember:Most scans come from smartphones.
