Create a heatmap

Set up a heatmap by naming it and choosing which pages to track.

Go to Heatmaps and click Create heatmap.

Create heatmap dialog

Steps

  1. Enter a name for the heatmap.
  2. Add one or more tracked URLs, each with a matching mode:
    • Exact match — only this precise URL (e.g. https://example.com/pricing).
    • Contains — any URL containing this string (e.g. /products matches every product page).
  3. Save. Data begins accumulating from new sessions going forward.

Tips

  • Use Contains to aggregate templated pages (all blog posts, all product pages) into one heatmap. The layouts have to be genuinely similar, or the aggregate is meaningless.
  • Use Exact for high-value landing or checkout pages you want isolated.
  • The number of heatmaps you can run depends on your plan.

Heatmaps are not retroactive

A heatmap starts collecting when you create it — it cannot show you last month. If a page matters, create its heatmap before you need the data.

Managing heatmaps

From the list you can search by name or URL, edit a heatmap's name and tracked URLs, or delete it.
