Crazy Egg throws Confetti on analytics

crazyegg confetti analyticsUnderstanding where your traffic is coming from is one of the major components to being able to optimize content for a better experience for users. Having a good analytics package is key, whether its Google's free Analytics or a visually stimulating package like CrazyEgg. Throw some confetti on it, and what do you get?

CrazyEgg is well known for their visual approach to analytics. Their free offering makes its easy for website owners to get a quick look at where visitors are clicking and how they are navigating through a website with the use of heatmaps, overlays, and now with some confetti. With the analytical Confetti view, users get a better understanding how visitors interact with their website. Visitor interaction can be sorted based on referrers, search terms, operating systems, browser, time before clicks and window size in a colorful easy to understand view.

Crazy Egg is a free analytics service, with an upgrade package available. Installation is through a simple javascript line added to webpages that you want to track.

Crazy Egg website visualizer

Crazy EggThere is nothing I love more than my favorite morning breakfast food (procured from the back-end of a chicken) sizzling in the pan mumbling incoherently and frothing at the yoke. This is exactly how Crazy Egg isn't. This visualization tool for your website will show you several important things about how, how often, where, and on what your guests are clicking on. There are three modes (screenshots of each after the jump) overlay, list, and my personal favorite, the heat map. Crazy Egg has a well put together idea that looks great. All you have to do is insert a single line of code at the bottom of each page you want to track. They offer a free account and three other paid account options to choose from ($19/$49/$99), all with varying degrees or features and number of saved snapshots. There, now my eggs are climbing up walls and trying to harm themselves, go check out Crazy Egg, cause I gotta go, my crazy eggs are out of control!

The World's Hardest Game 2.0 - Time Waster

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do. Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
