How to keep your eye on your web site visitors

If you are trying to sell your products and services via your web site, you really need to know where the best place in the page is to position things. If you put the link to your sales page in the “wrong” place, for instance, you’ll miss out on sales. But where is the “right” place? Well, there’s no easy answer to that because it depends on your overall web site design and the kind of people you are targeting.

However, I’ve discovered a brilliant service that provides you with heat maps and visitor tracking – free of charge…!
