Lucky Orange

Out of all the fruit, are oranges really the luckiest? Not sure we’re sold on the thought. Lemons may be, but oranges… But this is probably a discussion for another time.

There’s this tool called Lucky Orange and it basically tracks user experience on your site. You can learn so much from a tool like this by a heat map of where folks most interact or where people drop off in the buying process.

Pricing is pretty reasonable too for the data you could receive. If you want to optimize your site, look into Lucky Orange.
