Aura Contact Page Template: Forms, Support Channels, and FAQ in One Conversion Hub

Written by Chetan | Jun 26, 2026 11:45:50 AM

When someone clicks Contact, they have already decided to reach out. Your job is not to impress them with animations—it is to make reaching you effortless, reassuring, and routed to the right channel. The Aura Contact page template delivers that experience in three focused sections: a calming hero, a two-column contact hub with HubSpot form and support details, and an FAQ accordion that deflects repetitive questions before they hit your inbox.

This guide covers every module, the objectives each fulfills, customization for support and sales teams, and how Contact fits into Aura's broader template ecosystem.

The job of a modern contact page

Contact pages fail when they are either a bare form on a white background or a cluttered directory of outdated phone numbers. Effective contact pages accomplish four goals simultaneously:

  • Capture structured leads via HubSpot forms synced to CRM
  • Offer channel choice — email, chat, phone, office visit
  • Set response expectations with business hours and SLA hints
  • Deflect tickets with FAQ content linked to documentation

Aura's three-section layout executes this without overwhelming visitors.

Template architecture

File path: templates/contact.html. DnD area: Contact. Stylesheet: aura-contact-sections.css. Inherits global Aura header/footer with sticky navigation and multi-column footer links.

Section 1: Hero — reduce anxiety before the form

Centered Aura Hero module: "Get in Touch" with supportive subheading about response times or team availability. No form above the fold—hero copy lowers emotional temperature before data entry.

Psychology: Forms trigger commitment anxiety. A brief, friendly hero reassures visitors that contacting you is normal, expected, and welcome.

Section 2: Aura Contact Module — the conversion core

The Aura Contact module splits the page into two columns:

Left column — HubSpot form

  • Heading: "Send us a message"
  • Embedded placeholder—select your HubSpot form in module settings
  • Styled via Aura's global form CSS (aura-hubspot-forms.css) for label, field, focus, and button consistency

Right column — contact methods + hours

  • Four method cards: Email, Live Chat, Phone, Office—each with icon, label, detail text, optional link
  • Business hours card: Mon–Sun schedule with timezone clarity

Objectives fulfilled:

  • Lead capture — Form submissions create CRM records for sales follow-up
  • Channel preference — Some buyers hate forms; they call or email directly
  • Expectation setting — Hours card reduces "why didn't you reply at midnight?" friction

Module benefits: Marketers edit method text and links without code. Developers configure form once in HubSpot; styling applies automatically across Contact and landing pages using Lead Capture module.

Section 3: FAQ Module — support deflection

Four accordion questions in two-column layout: response time, custom development availability, demo scheduling, and support channels. Pulled from real sales conversations, these FAQs intercept visitors who would otherwise submit low-quality form fills.

ROI impact: Every deflected ticket saves support time. Link FAQ answers to Documentation for deeper self-serve.

HubSpot form setup checklist

  1. Create form in HubSpot Marketing Hub with fields you actually use in CRM
  2. Enable GDPR/consent fields if required by region
  3. Map form to contact owner or rotation rules
  4. Select form in Aura Contact module instance
  5. Test submission on published page—not just preview
  6. Configure thank-you message or redirect to meeting scheduler

SEO considerations

Contact pages rank for branded queries ("Aura theme support," "[Your Company] contact"). Include NAP consistency (name, address, phone) matching Google Business Profile if applicable. Meta description should mention response time or channels.

Accessibility notes

Form labels, focus states, and error messages use Aura token colors meeting contrast guidelines. Contact method links include descriptive text—not "click here."

Connecting Contact to Services

Visitors researching custom development often bounce between Contact and Services pages. After submitting a form, many prospects want proof you can deliver complex projects—not just answer emails.

Read our breakdown of the Aura Services page template, which maps offerings, process steps, trust stats, and case study CTAs—the perfect companion page to link from Contact confirmation emails and FAQ answers about custom work.

Who should use this template

  • Theme sellers handling pre-sales questions
  • Agencies qualifying project inquiries
  • SaaS teams routing support vs sales via form field logic
  • Any HubSpot site needing a professional, on-brand contact experience

Customization ideas

  • Add hidden UTM fields to forms for campaign attribution
  • Replace Live Chat card with Slack Connect or Intercom if integrated
  • Embed HubSpot meetings link as fourth method for demo-heavy teams
  • Localize hours for global support coverage

Editing the Contact template in the HubSpot page editor

The Contact page is straightforward—three sections—but form configuration requires careful HubSpot setup. Follow this workflow:

  1. Create the page — Website Pages → Create → Website page.
  2. Assign Contact template — Select "Contact" from Aura theme templates. DnD area labeled Contact loads three sections.
  3. Edit the hero — Update headline and subheading with response time promise ("We reply within one business day").
  4. Configure the Contact module — This is the critical step. In the left column form field, open the HubSpot form picker and select your production form—not a test form with extra fields.
  5. Set contact methods — Edit the four method cards: Email (mailto: link), Live Chat (chat widget URL or Intercom link), Phone (tel: link), Office (Google Maps link to address).
  6. Update business hours — Edit the hours card with accurate timezone (e.g., "Mon–Fri, 9am–6pm EST"). Include holiday closures if relevant.
  7. Customize FAQ — Rewrite four accordion items for your actual support policies, demo scheduling process, and custom development availability.
  8. Test form submission — Submit a test on the published page URL, not preview mode. Confirm CRM record creation and notification workflow.

Mobile and responsive behavior on the Contact template

Contact pages must work flawlessly on mobile—many visitors tap "Contact" from mobile navigation after failing to find answers elsewhere.

Hero: Centered layout with comfortable padding. Subheading about response times visible without scroll on most phones.

Contact module (two-column): On desktop, form left and methods right. On tablet and mobile, columns stack—form typically appears first to capture intent before visitors choose alternate channels. Form fields expand to full width. HubSpot form styling from aura-hubspot-forms.css ensures inputs meet minimum 44px tap height.

Contact method cards: Four cards reflow from 2×2 grid to single column. Phone and email links trigger native mobile actions (tel:, mailto:).

Business hours card: Full width below method cards on mobile. Timezone text remains visible—critical for global visitors.

FAQ: Two-column desktop becomes single column on mobile. Accordion headers sized for thumb interaction.

Theme Settings fields that affect the Contact page

Contact page trust depends on visual consistency with the rest of your site—forms that look alien destroy credibility.

Colors: Form field borders, focus rings, and submit buttons inherit primary accent and neutral border tokens. Error states use semantic error color from theme palette. Method card icons use accent color for visual hierarchy.

Typography: Form labels and input text use body font token. Section headings (form heading, FAQ title) use heading scale. Maintain 16px minimum input font size on mobile to prevent iOS zoom-on-focus.

Buttons: Form submit button uses primary button token—same as hero CTAs site-wide. Hover and focus states match accessibility guidelines.

Extended module field reference for the Contact template

Aura Hero (centered): Badge optional, headline, subheading, no CTA buttons by default.

Aura Contact module: Form column—section heading, HubSpot form picker (required), optional form description. Methods column—method repeater (icon selector, label, detail text, link URL), business hours heading, hours repeater (day range, time range), timezone text field.

Aura FAQ module: Section heading, question repeater, two-column layout (collapses on mobile), style variant.

Common mistakes to avoid on your Contact page

  • Test form left in production — Preview forms with debug fields confuse visitors and pollute CRM. Swap to production form before launch.
  • No confirmation after submit — Configure thank-you message or redirect. Silent submits feel broken.
  • Dead phone numbers or emails — Method cards with wrong contact info erode trust instantly. Audit quarterly.
  • Missing timezone on hours — "9am–5pm" without timezone frustrates global prospects.
  • Form with too many required fields — Contact inquiries drop with every additional required field. Name, email, message often suffices.
  • FAQ duplicating Documentation — FAQ should answer top five pre-sales questions, not replicate your entire help center.
  • Ignoring GDPR/consent — EU visitors need lawful basis fields. Configure in HubSpot form settings.

Persona-specific use cases

For marketers: Contact page is high-intent—add to smart lists when form submits. Route forms by hidden field (inquiry type: sales vs support). Track form conversion rate vs page views. Run retargeting to visitors who viewed Contact but did not submit. Link from email signatures and campaign CTAs with UTM parameters captured via hidden fields.

For developers: Form styling is centralized in aura-hubspot-forms.css—changes propagate to Contact and Lead Capture modules. Do not inline form styles in module templates. If custom form fields are needed, create them in HubSpot form editor; Aura styling applies automatically. Test form embed across Content Security Policy settings if your org restricts third-party scripts.

For agency owners: Contact page qualifies project inquiries before calls. Configure form with project budget, timeline, and service interest fields. Route to correct producer via HubSpot workflow. Method cards showcase white-glove accessibility—direct email to partner, not generic info@. Link FAQ answers about custom work to Services page. Hours card sets boundary expectations for client communication.

Additional SEO and internal linking guidance

Contact pages rank for branded queries and local intent ("HubSpot agency contact," "[city] web development contact"). Include NAP (name, address, phone) consistent with Google Business Profile. The existing link to the Services template guide demonstrates blog cross-linking; on your live site, link FAQ answers about custom development to Services, and form thank-you pages to case studies or pricing.

Meta description should mention channels and response time. Add internal links from footer, header, About page CTA, and Services CTA banner—all pointing to Contact with varied anchor text ("Get in touch," "Start a project," "Contact our team").

Form routing and team workflow configuration

Contact page efficiency depends on backend routing, not just front-end design. Create separate HubSpot forms for sales vs support if inquiry types differ—or use single form with "How can we help?" dropdown triggering workflow branches. Sales branch: assign owner, create deal, send Slack alert. Support branch: create ticket, assign tier-1 queue, send auto-reply with documentation links. Set response SLA in internal docs matching hero subheading promise. Review unassigned submissions weekly—routing failures silently kill leads. Connect Live Chat card to actual coverage hours; disable or hide card when chat offline to prevent frustration.

Measuring Contact page effectiveness

Track form conversion rate (submissions / page views)—benchmark 5–15% for B2B depending on traffic intent. Monitor method card click rates: high phone clicks with low form submits may indicate form friction—reduce fields. FAQ expansion rate identifies content gaps; questions expanded most often deserve permanent documentation pages. Compare Contact page performance for organic vs paid vs direct traffic. Branded organic visitors convert highest; cold paid traffic may need dedicated landing pages instead. Survey closed-won customers: "How did you first contact us?" to validate channel investments.

Final word

The Aura Contact page template respects a simple truth: people reaching out are your highest-intent traffic. Honor that intent with a form that works, channels that match their preference, hours that set honest expectations, and FAQ that answers before they wait. Three sections. Zero fluff. Maximum clarity.
