Understanding Heatmap

Heatmaps are visual representations that illustrate user interactions on your website. They use color gradients to indicate areas of high and low engagement:

• Click Heatmaps: Show where users click most frequently, helping you identify popular elements and optimize their placement.

• Scroll Heatmaps: Indicate how far users scroll down your page, allowing you to understand if important content is being missed.

• Attention Heatmaps: Track eye movement, helping you understand which elements attract the most attention and adjust your design accordingly.

How to Interpret Heatmaps

To effectively analyze heatmaps:

1. Identify Hot Spots: Look for areas with red or orange hues, indicating high user interaction.

2. Examine Cold Zones: Blue or gray areas suggest low engagement. These might be opportunities for design improvement.

3. Compare Different Heatmaps: Toggle between click, scroll, and attention heatmaps to get a comprehensive view of user behavior.

4. Segment Data: Analyze heatmaps by different user segments, such as new vs. returning visitors or mobile vs. desktop users, to uncover specific insights.
