How to show a product walkthrough on a WordPress site?
-
I’m working on a small site and need to explain how the product works before people sign up. Creating a separate “demo page” with screenshots and text feels a bit messy and hard to maintain.
I’m looking for something closer to a short guided walkthrough where visitors can click through a few steps and see the main workflow. I found a few tools that create interactive demos and embed them directly into a page, like this for example: https://supademo.com/Has anyone here tried embedding this type of interactive demo inside WordPress? Do you know if these are usually placed on a landing page, inside a blog post, or kept on a separate demo page? I’d appreciate hearing how others handle this.

Integrating an interactive walkthrough like Supademo into WordPress is a highly effective way to increase conversion rates, as it allows visitors to “experience” the product without the friction of a sign-up. Most users find that embedding these demos directly on the homepage or a primary landing page—typically just below the “Hero” section or alongside a feature list—works best for capturing immediate interest. These tools usually provide an iframe embed code or a dedicated WordPress block that you can drop into your page builder, maintaining a seamless look while avoiding the clutter of multiple static screenshots. By placing the walkthrough where the user naturally looks for “How it Works” information, you create a self-service “Product-Led” experience that is much easier to update than a manual demo page, as any changes made in the demo editor will automatically sync to your live site.

Thanks for the tip, James. That point about placing it right below the hero section is actually what I ended up doing. It feels way more integrated than a separate page, and you’re right about the iframe, it was very easy to just drop into a block. I was a bit worried about how it would look on mobile, but it seems to scale pretty well without breaking the layout. It’s definitely a relief not having to manually update screenshots every time we change a button or a label in the app. I’ll keep it on the main landing page for now and see if it helps keep people on the site longer.
