Heat Mapping

Heat Mapping is tool we use to see exactly where a visitor clicks, how many times they click, where they go, time they spend on the page, and where they exit or what they do right before they leave your website. This tool is valuable in several ways: See if visitors are getting stuck at checkout, see where they are viewing the most, and more.


Heatmaps are roughly divided between mousetracking heatmaps and eyetracking heatmaps. The big majority of companies use mousetracking heatmaps because of it’s price effectiveness. Let’s look into key findings from different heatmap tests.

One of the main differences between mouse- and eyetracking heatmaps is that when using mouse tracking, you are getting data from your actual visitors. Whereas when you use an eyetracking heatmap, you are using a sample group of people who are often taken out of their normal environment, so it may generate distorted results. On the other side, using eyetracking will give you results with close to 100% accuracy about the testing subjects, while the accuracy of mousetracking is around 85-90%.
