How to create your first heatmap

< 1 min read

This article walks through creating your first click heatmap on the free plan.

Requirements #

  • Opti-Behavior active and tracking verified.
  • A published page receiving visitors.

Steps #

  1. Go to WP Admin ? Opti-Behavior ? Heatmaps.
  2. Add the page URL you want to track, or select it from the tracked pages list.
  3. Let real visitors interact with the page so clicks accumulate.
  4. Open the page from the Heatmaps list to view the click overlay.
Click heatmap overlay on the demo homepage showing green, yellow and red click hotspots over the navigation, hero banner and products

Expected result #

After clicks accumulate, opening the page shows colored zones marking where visitors clicked.

Troubleshooting #

  • No data – the page needs real visits; verify tracking is firing.

FAQ #

How long until a heatmap fills in? #

It depends on traffic; more visits produce clearer patterns.
