Measuring

Heatmap and session recordings

A heatmap colors your page by where people click, tap and scroll. Session recordings replay anonymous visits so you can watch where someone got stuck. Microsoft Clarity does both for free.

Why it matters for your business

Analytics tells you that people left. A heatmap shows you why: the button nobody sees, the form field everyone abandons, the section nobody scrolls to. Ten minutes of recordings often explains a month of numbers.

In practice

Recordings on a painting company's site show phone visitors tapping a photo gallery that is not a link. Making the photos open a project page fixes the dead end.
