Common use cases of heatmaps

Optimize your pages based on helpful behavior insights

Spot best-performing (and under-performing) elements

Find out which page elements deliver the best outcomes

Traditional heatmaps show you which page elements get the most clicks. Zone-based heatmaps go further, showing how each element contributes to goals like conversions and revenue. Find out which images and links drive your desired outcomes, then optimize customer journeys to highlight them even further.

Want to learn more about your content? Try viewing different zone-based heatmaps side-by-side. Compare heatmaps from different time periods, traffic sources, and more to see how audiences performed. Or compare two heatmaps from your A/B tests to understand why one variant outperformed the other.

Increase form completion rates

Understand which parts of your forms are confusing or frustrating users

Use form analysis to see helpful metrics, like how many users completed the form or dropped off. Find out which fields are often left blank, and check heatmaps to see signs of struggle. Jump to related session replays to see users navigating forms in real time (with their personal details hidden automatically by Contentsquare).
