ClickTale Unveils New Heatmap Features to Reveal Unprecedented Website Visitor Metrics and Behavior Patterns

Segmented Heatmaps Compare Visitor Behavior Patterns Based on Demographics, Location or Any other Metric; Ultra Scale Heatmaps Deliver Data from 100,000 Visitors in a Single, Visual Report to Make Accurate Usability Testing Affordable, Even on a Massive Scale

RAMAT GAN, Israel, Aug. 3 -- ClickTale, the industry leader in Customer Experience Analytics (CEA), today announced the launch and immediate availability of two new behavioral heatmap features that unveil never-before-seen details about website visitors and their browsing patterns.

The new Segmented Heatmaps feature gives site owners the ability to filter ClickTale's full range of visual heatmaps based on any customer information or browsing behavior. This capability allows webmasters to easily compare and contrast how different user groups engage with their site. With the new Ultra Scale heatmaps, site owners can view data from as many as 100,000 visitors in a single graphical report, delivering accurate results comparable to costly eye-tracking studies, but on a massive global scale and at a fraction of the cost.

"The biggest challenge site owners and designers face is measuring visitor engagement and site usability on a realistic and affordable scale," said Dr. Tal Schwartz, CEO and co-founder of ClickTale. "These new heatmap features reveal unprecedented detail about visitor behavior patterns that can be used to make on-the-fly website adjustments that improve site usability and conversion rates."

Independent studies have demonstrated an extremely high correlation--as much as 88 percent--between site visitors' mouse and eye movements. ClickTale tracks absolutely everything visitors do within the page, creating a range of Mouse Move, Click, Scroll-Reach and Attention Heatmaps that reveal exactly which elements of the site visitors look at, pay attention to and engage with. These heatmaps are created anonymously, have no impact on visitors' browsing ability and are completely transparent to the end user.

Segmented Heatmaps

The new Segmented Heatmaps feature allows website owners to discover exactly how different user groups interact with their website, delivering unparalleled insights into their customers' behavior. These heatmaps can be segmented by any metric desired, including by campaign, engagement, original referrer (specific website or search engine), conversion, dollars spent, or demographics (age, gender, location, native language, etc.), to name just a few. The options are virtually limitless, but for example, it is now possible to:

  --  See how existing customers behave compared to first time shoppers;
  --  Discover how converted (paying) customers' behavior differs from
      non-buyers: was there a difference in their browsing behavior before
      they arrive at the checkout page? Are big-ticket buyers attracted to
      different site elements than customers with smaller orders?
  --  Determine how browsing behavior changes depending on what brings
      visitors to the site: do those who arrive from a Google search browse
      differently than those from a referring website?
  --  Measure the effectiveness of various outreach campaigns: do visitors
      browse differently if they come from an advertisement, SEM, banner or
      e-mail campaign?
  --  Discern why certain visitors bounce and what can be done to increase
      customer engagement.
  --  Understand how visitors' language and geography affect browsing
      behavior: how do non-native English speakers behave compared to native
      English speakers? Is there a difference in browsing behavior based on
      country of origin?
  --  Gauge how demographics impact browsing behavior by age, gender and
      other data provided by the customer: are women drawn to different
      elements than men? How do age and gender affect visitor behavior?

  Ultra Scale Heatmaps

By aggregating the browsing sessions from as many as 100,000 visitors at a time in a single image, ClickTale's Ultra Scale Heatmaps enable companies to expand usability research on a massive scale to gain more reliable and actionable data. As companies increase spending for eye-tracking and usability studies, ClickTale's Ultra Scale Heatmaps provides a much more affordable and easier to deploy alternative, with an accuracy that is comparable to eye-tracking studies.

"With Ultra Scale Heatmaps, we've created the definitive method for delivering accurate, affordable behavioral data," Schwartz said. "Now, even smaller businesses can have access to this incredibly valuable, rich visitor data that was once so cost-prohibitive to obtain. With large-scale and filterable heatmapping, companies of all sizes can gain unprecedented, proven insight into usability data to optimize their site's performance."
