There are many factors that have helped E-commerce achieve its leading position in the market.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On one hand, during Covid-19 physical stores suffered from the negative effects of the lockdown, while online stores experienced less of these impacts. On the other hand, nowadays, creating a website is easier than ever. Luckily, <a href=\"https:\/\/hu.wordpress.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WordPress<\/a> makes it easy to create and design your website, without you having to be an expert on difficult programming codes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, you have a website which, I\u2019m sure is well-built and designed, but what\u2019s next?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I\u2019m right you are willing to do everything to make your customers satisfied with your business. If you want to perfectly understand your customers\u2019 behavior you\u2019ll probably need me to guide you through this path.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><em>\u201cA brand is no longer what we tell customers it is &#8211; It is what customers tell each other it is.\u201d &#8211; <\/em><strong>Scott Cook&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, I will show you 5 must-have <a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/must-have-wordpress-plugins-for-marketers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WordPress plugin features<\/a> that will accompany you on the route of becoming an expert on user experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful features to optimize your website<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The following 5 evergreen website analytics tools are going to save you time and energy by pinpointing all the problematic areas of your website. Let\u2019s have a closer look at them!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Heatmaps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You probably know what heatmaps are, so if you don\u2019t mind, I wouldn\u2019t waste time explaining their definition. Still, if you want to become an expert on the topic, <a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/heatmaps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">I recommend you this article.<\/a> On the other hand, what I\u2019d like to highlight is the way you can benefit from the adequate usage of heatmaps. Furthermore, there are tons of difficulties you can avoid by using them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WordPress heatmap plugin examples<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There are different types of heatmaps, and you can use them for various aims. Capturly has 3 examples of heatmaps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Click heatmaps<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll heatmaps<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Segment heatmaps<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s see one by one what each one brings!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Click heatmaps<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Click heatmaps are used to discover the most and least attractive areas of your site. Where your site receives multiple clicks, that area will be shown with hot colors like red or orange. The hidden areas are marked with the color green or blue. It is a perfect way to show you where the attention is concentrated. It is a game-changer because you can implement your most important CTAs and elements in that exact area where they will be seen. The colder the area is, the less attention it receives. If you guard anything essential there, you should consider moving it forward to the hotter areas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" src=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Click-heatmaps-1.png\" alt=\"Capturly click heatmap wordpress plugin\" class=\"wp-image-10418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Click-heatmaps-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Click-heatmaps-1-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Click-heatmaps-1-768x428.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/features\/heatmaps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Capturly Click Heatmap<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scroll heatmaps<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Scroll heatmaps, as its name says, monitor how far users scroll down on your page. This WordPress plugin feature helps you get a clear picture of what captures users\u2019 attention and where the drop-off occurs. Normally, the top of a website is the most visited area so make it eye-catching and place your relevant CTAs there. Sign-up form, navigation, and search option all should be placed in the upper area.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\" src=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Scroll-heatmaps-1.png\" alt=\"Capturly wordpress scroll heatmap plugin\" class=\"wp-image-10420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Scroll-heatmaps-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Scroll-heatmaps-1-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Scroll-heatmaps-1-768x431.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/features\/heatmaps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Capturly Scroll Heatmap<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Segment heatmaps<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Segment heatmaps allow you to examine your target audience separately, based on different factors. With this feature, you can focus on different devices, countries, or browsers to pinpoint unique characteristics. It can be quite useful when you\u2019d like to concentrate only on one designated segment of your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"573\" src=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segment-heatmaps.png\" alt=\"Capturly WordPress segment heatmap plugin\" class=\"wp-image-10421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segment-heatmaps.png 1024w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segment-heatmaps-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segment-heatmaps-768x430.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/features\/heatmaps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Capturly Segment Heatmap<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Heatmap benefits<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we know the main functions of these heatmap types, let\u2019s see 5 fields where you can benefit from applying them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CTA Optimization<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>CTAs play quite an important role on your website as they lead your users and give them exact intentions about what you want them to do. You might have different purposes. Maybe you want them to read more about a topic or want to navigate them to another page to purchase or subscribe. Still, a<a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/designing-call-to-action\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> well-designed CTA<\/a> is visible and attentive. Both click and scroll heatmaps are meant to show you whether your implemented CTAs are seen or not. Don\u2019t be afraid to employ little changes on your site, heatmaps can also help you monitor the impacts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><strong><em>Extra tip:<\/em><\/strong><em> It is recommended to use CTAs more than once. If users see a CTA twice, or more, you increase the chance to make it available at the time they want to click on it.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(Bradley &amp; al., 1996; Buodo &amp; al., 2002; Pessoa &amp; Ungerleider, 2004; Vuilleumier, 2005)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Improving navigation<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>A well-structured navigation is one of the main factors of a good user experience. Just think about it, you don&#8217;t want your audience to waste too much time trying to find what they are looking for, right?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Click heatmaps highlight the top-performing menu items.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heatmap data also reveals if any item on the menu receives unexpected clicks.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a trick that you can employ when you organize the hierarchy of your website\u2019s menu. A phenomenon called the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Serial-position_effect\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Serial Position Effect<\/a>\u201d means that people are more likely to remember the first and last items. It works on your menu items too, so it&#8217;s wiser to place your most relevant categories or products at the beginning or at the end of the menu.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Revealing pain points<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This tool is a great method to emphasize how users interact with your website. Heatmaps will make it clear if there is any content that users can\u2019t find, also, or what they don\u2019t understand. The better organized and eye-capturing a website is, the better chances you have to satisfy your customers. On the other hand, there might be problems that you can\u2019t realize without using analytics. Still, no need to worry, that is the mission of all types of website analytics to guide you on this path.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mobile-friendliness<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>I can\u2019t emphasize enough how important this topic is. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brightervision.com\/blog\/importance-mobile-friendly-website\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">67% of users said<\/a> that they are more likely to buy a product if the site is mobile-friendly. One of Capturly\u2019s major advantages is that you can examine mobile visits separately from other devices. You\u2019ll be able to see every click, tap and scroll. Keep in mind that the mobile layout might need to be totally different from the desktop view. Track and optimize users\u2019 interaction on mobiles with heatmaps. If your site doesn&#8217;t offer an outstanding, mobile-friendly UX, here is the best opportunity to better satisfy your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" src=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mobile-friendliness.png\" alt=\"Capturly Mobile-friendliness\" class=\"wp-image-10422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mobile-friendliness.png 1024w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mobile-friendliness-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mobile-friendliness-768x428.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comparing segments<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Prepare to be amazed by the differences between segments of your users. There can be huge inequalities among customers based on countries, browsers, or devices. Also, new users might behave differently from your returning customers. Segment heatmaps are gold to monitor the behavior of each group. Good news, Capturly offers many available filtering options to choose from.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><strong>Pro tip:<\/strong> You can use heatmaps for <a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/131-simple-ways-to-use-heatmaps-for-a-b-testing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A\/B testing<\/a> too.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"472\" src=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/AB-testing.png\" alt=\"AB testing\" class=\"wp-image-10433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/AB-testing.png 1024w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/AB-testing-300x138.png 300w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/AB-testing-768x354.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-small-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freepik.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Session recording<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you ever tried to put yourself in your customers\u2019 shoes?

Join your audience on their digital journey by tracking their mouse movements and monitoring their clicks, enabling you to see what they see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Session recording advantages<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This feature is a useful WordPress Plugin. It is your ticket to discovering where users drop off or face problems. Session recordings serve you in many ways, it is like a jackpot because you can see how visitors behave on your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"593\" src=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Session-Recordings-.png\" alt=\"Capturly Session Recording WordPress plugin\" class=\"wp-image-10443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Session-Recordings-.png 1024w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Session-Recordings--300x174.png 300w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Session-Recordings--768x445.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/features\/session-recording\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Capturly Session Recording<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Improving design<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>By understanding what resonates the most with your customers you can improve your website design. As people are visual, designing correctly has a huge impact on the first impression, so never underestimate the power of it. You can test which fonts, colors, and graphical elements are more eye-capturing. Session recordings also show you the hidden parts of your site, where only a few clicks are.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discovering bugs<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>It might happen that some parts of your website aren&#8217;t functioning properly. While watching&nbsp;session recordings you can pinpoint all the problematic areas where your audience gets frustrated. By the way, Capturly automatically records all rage clicks, JavaScript errors, u-turns, and mouse outs. Some other different types of bugs can occur too, for example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>non-clickable elements<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>links that don\u2019t work<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>too long loading time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>annoying pop-ups<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget, If customers have a negative experience on your site they might never visit the page ever again.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><em>Did you know? Rage click is when users click or tap repeatedly on an element on the website, indicating frustration.<\/em> <em><a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/what-are-rage-clicks-and-how-to-improve-your-websites-usability-with-them\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more here.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discovering drop-off points<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>As Session Replays show you every click and mouse movement, you can easily discover the point where your users leave your website. These points are important strategically because you can have a complete analysis of what might be wrong. After implementing different changes on your site you can monitor whether you gained better results or not.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><strong><em>Pro tip:<\/em><\/strong><em> It can be beneficial to analyze which pages have high bounce and exit rates, and employ session recording on these exact pages to understand the problem better.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Highlighting the website usability&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>I can\u2019t highlight enough how important user experience is. Website usability is established on many factors. It has to be fast, well-designed and logical. With this useful feature, you can pinpoint where your audience faces problems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">+ 1 &#8211; Nudging customers<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Just think about it: You have an online store, and you watch a session recording of one of your customers who left without conversion. You might consider this case unsuccessful, but it\u2019s not like that. At this point, you can see what product they were interested in, and see their hesitation. What can you do now? Send your users direct advertisements about that exact product or remind them through email. It might not work every time, but in some cases, it can make customers return to your website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conversion Funnel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019d like to have a clear picture of where your users lose interest, this tool is for you. Conversion funnel shows you the buyer journey step by step on your website. It is useful to track where drop-offs occur. To have a complete analysis, use this tool with session recordings to see the reasons too. Also, you can see how high your conversion rate is and how it changes due to different impacts. When I say &#8216;impact,&#8217; I&#8217;m referring to something like a social media campaign that could substantially increase your conversion rate. You can use this tool to develop those critical pages where users leave without conversion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"559\" src=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Converion-Funnel.png\" alt=\"Capturly Conversion Funnel WordPRess plugin\" class=\"wp-image-10426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Converion-Funnel.png 1024w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Converion-Funnel-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Converion-Funnel-768x419.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/features\/conversion-funnel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Capturly Conversion Funnel<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, Capturly offers you filtering options on conversion funnels too. You can search by country or by a designated campaign. On the other hand, Capturly\u2019s funnels have integrated session recording features. Technically it means that you don&#8217;t have to search for those recordings one by one, with one click you are able to see the relevant ones.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><em>Did you know?

As heatmaps and session replays are meant to explain the \u2018why\u2019, analytics contain all the important data. Analytics collects all data and pinpoints the important metrics of your website. Capturly will track every step of your visitors, you only have to understand what these metrics mean and how you can improve them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"517\" src=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Analytics.png\" alt=\"Capturly Analytics\" class=\"wp-image-10427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Analytics.png 1024w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Analytics-300x151.png 300w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Capturly-Analytics-768x388.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/features\/analytics-platform\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Capturly Analytics<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ll highlight some of the metrics that I consider the most important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Sessions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bounce rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pageviews<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Conversion rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Page loading time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Average session length<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Survey<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Survey is Capturly\u2019s new function to offer website owners the opportunity to establish a closer relationship with their users.

If users experience anything negative but they still want to visit your website, they will happily reveal their pain points. It is because the purpose is the same, they also want a good user experience.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You can get suggestions from customers<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Allowing users to give different suggestions about how you should develop your site always has a positive impact. By doing this you can make them feel like they are part of the company. Besides that, they might bring out ideas you haven\u2019t thought of.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create stronger engagement<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Customers want their voice to be heard and they like to feel that they belong somewhere. Believe me, a satisfied customer can become really loyal to your company. Surveys offer you the perfect opportunity to create a stronger bond between your brand and your customers. By allowing them to tell you their experience they\u2019ll feel that they really matter to the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Feedback about strengths and weaknesses&nbsp;<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>You may be aware of the well-performing and the problematic areas of your site, but are you truly able to notice everything? Sometimes there are so tiny metrics that you don\u2019t consider, but your customers do. I mean, obviously, opinions and tastes can be different, but maybe there is something recurrent that users notice as an inconvenience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Survey-options.png\" alt=\"Survey options\" class=\"wp-image-10435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Survey-options.png 1024w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Survey-options-300x73.png 300w, https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Survey-options-768x188.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Deep analysis of average scores and timely responses&nbsp;<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>As I mentioned, your customers may have totally different opinions and pain points. Furthermore, these opinions can be controversial too, which is confusing. We have to accept the fact that it is impossible to serve everyone&#8217;s needs, but we can see if there are problems that many of your users have noticed. Firstly you have to concentrate on these pain points because solving these ones will satisfy the majority of your \u2018unhappy\u2019 customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to implement these features to your WordPress site<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I truly hope that in this article, I have highlighted the importance of these analytics features. If I have convinced you that it is worth trying these features, now you only have to implement them to your WordPress site.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Believe me, you don\u2019t have to struggle to try out how to apply Capturly\u2019s features, it will take only 5 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/capturly.com\/blog\/how-to-install-capturly-for-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">these instructions<\/a> to be able to enjoy all of the mentioned benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It might be a clich\u00e9 but all that we do is for the well-being and satisfaction of the users. As the digital world changes radically day by day the best we can do is to keep ourselves up-to-date.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In conclusion, offering an enjoyable experience for your visitors is essential, because keeping satisfied customers is much easier than attracting new ones.
