Heatmaps are essential for marketers to optimize their websites for maximum conversions. One can easily visualize fundamental user interactions and gather meaningful insights with heatmaps to ensure that your website provides an outstanding user experience throughout the user journey. I know the heatmap is the starting point. How and what else do you think you should be doing to understand user engagement and improve page conversion.

Certainly, heatmaps are a valuable tool in understanding user behavior on landing pages as they provide visual insights into where users are focusing their attention. However, to have a comprehensive understanding and thus a more substantial impact on user engagement and conversion rates, you should employ a multi-faceted approach: 1.) Analytics and Tracking Tools 2.) A/B Testing 3.) User Recordings 4.) Customer Journey Analysis 5.) Conversion Funnel Analysis 6.) Competitive Analysis Each of these strategies, combined with heatmap data, can provide a multi-dimensional view of user behavior. Continuous analysis and iterative improvements, based on diverse data sets, will yield the best results over time.

@adam_jones16 I can't agree less with you. But I feel for people starting this journey, Heatmaps and session recordings have to be the starting point. The other strategies require a detailed understanding of the User's behaviour and its associated analytics.

Heatmaps are great starting point for understanding user engagement and improving page conversion. Apart from heatmap, we can use google analytics, session recording tools, form submissions, CTR, bounce rate, scroll depth tracking, etc. By tracking user engagement, we can identify what is working well and what is not.

@namita_aslot Heatmaps are the starting point. Mainly the helps you understand your user's behaviour based on the UI you have created and validates the UX flow you have created. Hence, heatmaps are crucial for the UI/UX analysis of your landing pages.
