First Click

First click tests reveal how easy it is for users to navigate your site, and whether or not they’re able to find the information they need on the first go. By clarifying the paths that users take when using your site, you can prioritise on-page content to facilitate that journey.

The test itself involves presenting your user with your webpage, and asking them to complete a task. For example, if your brand sells homeware products, you might ask your testers where they would first click in order to find mirrors. Wherever they click first will show you where users’ attention focuses, and what elements are important in creating a seamless user experience.
