What is Hotjar?
Hotjar is a powerful analytics and feedback tool that allows you to understand user behavior on your website. It provides heatmaps, visitor recordings, conversion funnels, and more.
With Hotjar, you can see where users click, how far they scroll on a page, and even watch recordings of their sessions. This information helps you identify usability issues and make data-driven decisions to improve the user experience.
Adding Hotjar to Webflow
The process of adding Hotjar to your Webflow site is straightforward. Follow these steps:
