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.
