Comment on Using Click Heatmaps to Optimize Web Design by Chris

Hi there, thanks for the useful information - I have just installed ClickHeat and am keeping my eye out for any hidden links! Is the mod you used to convert ClickHeat into a ‘total mouse tracking’ tool publicly available? If so please could you let me know where I can find it?

Many thanks,
Chris (AeroDesigns)

One thing probably you might want to add after #5 is the fact that how statistically significant the results were ? For. e.g. if the test was done on x no of users , what % of your total visits x represents ? In essence , do the results from the test significant enough to extend on larger population ?

There is z test with which it can be know, however GWO gives this data automatically !

Great article !!

While your model is flaw less, one quick pitfall on measuring intent by survey is more often than not user themselves fail to provide their exact intent explicitly or they fall into the trap of averages , so probably it might help to put some money on analyst to get exact tracking of different potential intent/success events on website and then measure it !! Just a thought

Do you suggest any other approaches ?

I’ve used 4Q Iperceptions, and it successfully given me an additional insights and identified user’s intent. It is not a quick survey described in this post, rather it is based on 4 simple survery questions to why they visited the site, and asked if the site successfully served their interest or not.

Obtaining and answering qualitative aspect of your site visitors are definitely challenging. Awesome post!! Thanks.
