Website Visitor Behaviour Analysis Tools
From Marketing Online
These are software tools and browser plugins which typically have these functions:
- Overlay aggregate user click density or mouse movement in a heatmap or a clickmap.
- Playback videos of session mouse movement for individuals
They typically use a Javascript tag similar to web analytics systems to record behaviour.
There are two levels of solution:
Heatmap software showing user click behaviour
These are low-cost or no-cost software to help you identify where users click on a page in aggregate or in an individual session:
- Clickdensity Established tool based on Javascript
- Clicktale One of the most widely adopted tools - also offers form analytics
- Clickheat Newer? Open source tool
- Crazy Egg
Experience management solutions
At a different level these tools allow for detailed analysis of behaviour which can be integrated more closely with web analytics:
- Tealeaf A more sophisticated "experience management solution" for large sites.
- Speed Trap An established, UK-based solution
