What happens when youve built a great website or app, but no one seems to care? How do you get people to stick around long enough to see how your service might be of value? In Seductive Interaction Design, speaker and author Stephen P. Anderson takes a fresh approach to designing sites and interactions based on the stages of seduction. This beautifully designed book examines what motivates people to act.
Topics include:
AESTHETICS, BEAUTY, AND BEHAVIOR: Why do striking visuals grab our attention? And how do emotions affect judgment and behavior?
PLAYFUL SEDUCTION: How do you create playful engagements during the moment? Why are serendipity, arousal, rewards, and other delights critical to a good experience?
THE SUBTLE ART OF SEDUCTION: How do you put people at ease through clear and suggestive language? What are some subtle ways to influence behavior and get people to move from intent to action?
THE GAME OF SEDUCTION: How do you continue motivating people long after the first encounter? Are there lessons to be gained from learning theories or game design?
Principles from psychology are found throughout the book, along with dozens of examples showing how these techniques have been applied with great success. In addition, each section includes interviews with influential web and interaction designers.

For Erin, my love...
my half of the world belongs to you.

Acknowledgments

Writing a book is a painful process. And then you start the even more painful process of revisions, editing, and layout! But like all things that stretch and challenge us, when you reach the end, you find the pride and joy of accomplishment. For this, I have many people to thank.

In no particular order, my thanks go to...

Kathy Sierra, whose writings have been an inspiration to many of us. It was her post on cognitive seduction that helped form my initial musings on seductive interactions.

Matt Jones and Matt Biddulph for bringing Dopplr into the world. This Web app proved, in many different ways, that there is room for delight in the services we use.

Joshua Porter. While Joshua is certainly not the first person to talk about design and psychology, his book Designing for the Social Web and the many posts on Bokardo have been instrumental in advancing this bridge between the academic and industrial.

Kevin Cornell, for contributing his brilliant illustrations. Without them, this book wouldnt be nearly as classy nor as fun.

My friend and mentor Robert Moore, whose remarkable approach to designone that focuses first and foremost on human insightsforever changed how I approach design.

Jesse James Garret, Jared Spool, and Andy Budd, for believing in me and giving me a platform to spread this message at their respective events.

Lou Rosenfeld and Michael Nolan, for seeing that there was a book ready to be written. Also to Margaret Anderson and the entire development team at New Riders. Im certain youre ready to throttle me, after this process. But I think wed all agree weve created something beautiful to see and read.

Giles Colborne, Trevor van Gorp, BJ Fogg, Aarron Walter, Buster Benson, Adam Connor, Garrett Dimon, and Ruben Gazki for kindly sharing your thoughts in interviews. While we had cut a lot of content, including several interviews, rest assured, that content will be seen by the world.

Jared Christensen, Christian Bradford, and John Gibbard for stepping in at the last minute to help me get across the finish line.

Pattis Place, for offering the most wonderful environment one could possibly dream of for writing a book (not to mention the best soups and hot tea in Dallas).

Mrs. Zehentmayr and Karen Heid-Cooke, for igniting curious young minds and fanning the flames.

My family for, well, everything!

It goes without saying that a book demands a lot of time and energy. Being a parent to four wonderful boys, Gabriel, Liam, Elijah, and Jonas, demands even more time and energy. Without my wife Erins support, this book would not have been possible. Its not easy for her to be married to an obsessive personality, and this project only exacerbated my worst tendencies. Shes taken on more than anyone should ever ask, and even stepped in to rescue me when things got most difficult. For her enduring support and for being the center to our family during this time, I owe more than Ill every be able to repay. Thank you. I love you.

This is an undertaking I would not have pursued had there not been an overwhelming desire to hear more about this topic. For everyone who attended one of my talks, downloaded my slides on SlideShare, or otherwise indulged my interest in human behaviorI thank you. C.S. Lewis once wrote that We do not write in order to be understood; we write in order to understand. While this passion for learning is certainly true in my case, the learning has been a whole lot easier with so much interest and support. Thank you all.

And finally, thanks goes to Christina Wodtke, Cennydd Bowles, Richard Dalton, Donna Spencer, Rahul Choudhury, Kelsey Ruger, Kevin Cheng, Nick Finck, Livia Labate, Travis Isaacs, Jeremy Dunck, Jeroen van Geel, Whitney Hess, Chris Pall, Chris Fahey, Dan Lockton, Dan Brown, Jeremy Johnson, Peter Merholz, Sebastian Deterding, Amy Jo Kim, Luke Wroblewski, Bill Scott, Todd Zaki Warfel, Russ Unger, Jay Morgan, Chris Bernard, Wade Winningham, Paula Thornton, Dave Gray, Alex Bischoff, Dirk Knemeyer, Peter Boersma, Bill DeRouchey, Carolyn Wood, Brandon Schauer, Kaleem, John Moore, Candy Bernhardt, John Weiss, Matt Heard, Aaron Martin, Matt Donovan, Thomas Vander Wal, Andrew Hinton, Matthew Milan, Erica OGrady, Jay Fichialos, Ken Starzer, Jess McMullin, Matt Donovan, and the dozens of other people Im certain Im forgetting. Your work, conversations, and encouragement have truly been a blessing.
