Click maps

Important

Heatmap is only displayed on the site pages where the Clarity tracking code is installed. Check the Setup process to know how to install it.

Click Heatmap helps you understand the critical content on the page. It also allows you to identify parts of the design user mistake for links.

Clarity uses absolute ranking across all page views. Sometimes the page impression may not show the element the user clicked.

Click Heatmaps can help you determine where your users are clicking, including the nonlinks. On PC, Clarity tracks your user clicks. Clarity tracks your user taps on mobile/tablet.

You can view click maps for a single page or group of pages.

Tip

Check the Heatmaps overview to know the types of Clarity Heatmaps.

Different types of Clickmaps

There are different types of Click maps available:

  • All clicks: shows all types of user clicks on a page, including dead clicks, rage clicks, first clicks, and last clicks.

  • Dead clicks: shows where users clicked on a page with no effect/response. Learn more about Dead clicks.

  • Rage clicks: shows where users clicked rapidly in the same small area within a brief period. Learn more about Rage clicks.

  • Error clicks: shows clicks that occur immediately before JavaScript errors. Learn more about JavaScript errors.

  • First clicks: shows initial user clicks on a page. These clicks are useful to find out user onboarding patterns.

  • Last clicks: shows final user clicks on a page. These clicks are useful to find user flow patterns.
