What Heatmaps Reveal That Analytics Cannot

Google Analytics tells you a visitor bounced. A heatmap tells you they scrolled 40% down the product page, hovered over the size chart for six seconds, and left without clicking Add to Cart. That is the difference between knowing something went wrong and knowing exactly where and why. For ecommerce stores, that specificity is what turns data into revenue.

This site covers every major heatmap type used in ecommerce: scroll maps, click maps, move maps, mobile heatmaps, and the emerging AI tools that are changing how behavioral data gets interpreted. Every article is built around patterns observed in real store data, written for operators and conversion teams who need answers they can act on the same day they read them.
