How to Use Heatmaps to Find "Invisible" UX Blockers

Analytics tell you what is happening (e.g., high bounce rate). Heatmaps tell you why.

Types of Heatmap Insights

  • Dead Clicks: Users clicking on elements that look like buttons but aren't. This signals "Rage Clicks" and frustration.
  • Scroll Depth: Are users seeing your Call to Action (CTA)? If only 20% scroll to the footer, move your CTA up.
  • Movement Maps: Where does the mouse hover? This correlates with attention.

Heatmaps are the diagnostic tool for your CRO Strategy.
