Skip logic is an advanced  feature of online surveys which is used to control question flow. Conditions  are applied according to answers given by the respondent. Customized flow makes  the survey easy to complete and enhances your response rate. This tutorial  shows you how to do this in a few easy steps.<\/p>\n<h2>Normal Survey Flow Vs. Skip Logic<\/h2>\n<p>In a normal survey, questions appear one after another. The order is same for all respondents, but this can be changed. Skip logic lets you set a condition on question order called, skip logic. You can set a condition on what question appears next based on how the previous question was answered. Skip logic lets you move away from static surveys towards more user-friendly surveys. It also makes the survey easier to fill out because of the customizations.<\/p>\n<p>Consider this example survey:<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.surveycrest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/survey.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.surveycrest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/survey.png\" alt=\"survey\" title=\"survey\" width=\"624\" height=\"431\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2931\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.surveycrest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/survey.png 624w, https:\/\/www.surveycrest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/survey-300x207.png 300w, https:\/\/www.surveycrest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/survey-434x300.png 434w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The questions are linked with a condition. The second question only appears if the respondent choses \u201cYes\u201d for the first question. <\/p>\n<h2>Skip Logic In Surveycrest Surveys<\/h2>\n<p>Applying skip logic to your SurveyCrest survey only takes a  few clicks.
