What's Your Web Page Click Density?

Do You Know?



You may as well get used to it - my entries are going to be all over the map! I've got so many ideas and interests, and have been exposed to so much the last six years, when I sit down to write a blog entry or three - it's like that silo scene toward the end of Witness. I have so much to share - well, keep checking in, because you never know what's coming and you never know what will be most useful.

Click Density has now evolved into a very useful tool for Web developers. What does Click Density do that sets it apart from other statistical analysis tools? Like other programs, you just add a small segment of JavaScript to the pages that you wish to view results for, and every time a visitor clicks on something on your pages, the data is sent to the Click Density servers where it is used to generate your reports.

Click Density functions by placing an “x / y” coordinate grid right over your Web pages; 100% undetectable to all your site visitors. The grid records the coordinates of absolutely every click on the page [even clicks on non-linked items!] and generates heat maps and other reports which can help you see in a whole new way what your visitors are doing while navigating your pages. In a sense, you can become that ‘fly on the wall’ watching every move your visitors make!

Again, this system is 100% invisible on your Web pages – visitors will have no idea that their every move is being recorded. As the JavaScript is loaded a very minute increase in page-load time may occur, but chances are the increase will be so small that your visitors won’t be aware of it. Click Density supports Web pages that are up to 32,768 x 32,768 pixels in size – outside of those parameters the clicks won’t be counted. The supported dimensions are actually quite large when you consider most monitors are 1024x768 pixels.

Unlike other statistic programs and Web analytic tools, Click Density gives you a whole new way to see what is happening. It actually analyzes the “user’s experience” on your site so that you can see both what they are clicking on and not clicking on while on your website. By adding Click Density to your analytical arsenal, you can see another layer of information that has been unavailable to developers until now, replacing the one-dimensional picture given by the typical tools.

How to Get It

Set-up is simple – you just follow the instructions on how to add Click Density to your site with a few lines of JavaScript code and you’re on your way. You can get a 30-day trial download version of Click Density by visiting ClickDensity.com.

WIA: Barnaby's Amy Carnegie Draws on Retail Roots to Shape Product Development

In 2012, Amy Carnegie was pursuing a master’s degree in forensic psychology and looking for a part-time job close to home when she discovered Good Vibrations’ newly opened Oakland location. The store was on the same bus route she took to school, making it a convenient option. She didn't anticipate the position would lead to a nearly 15-year career, during which she would rise through the ranks to become head of buying and product development for Good Vibrations, Babeland and Camouflage.

What Retailers Should Know About Pheromones and Attraction

A woman stands at your counter. She dabs a drop of something clear and nearly odorless on her wrist, brings it to her nose and something in her posture changes before she even leaves the store. A few feet away, a man turns a small bottle over in his hand, reading the label twice and wondering whether it might help him feel noticed again by a longtime partner.

Why Adaptive Pleasure Belongs Across Every Adult Retail Category

For too long, accessibility in adult retail has been treated as a side conversation. When it appears at all, it is often tucked away in a hard-to-find website category, framed as a special accommodation or treated as a medical add-on rather than a legitimate pleasure category. That approach misses the point.
