The impact that a website leaves on visitors can make or break potential sales.    Websites must be carefully designed and well executed to capture buyers. To ensure that this happens, a company needs to monitor every element of their websites’ performance. Growth driven websites are sites that are continously monitored and optimized to perform as well as possible.   **A growth driven website is an absolute necessity to enhance and cultivate business in the most efficient and effective way possible.**   # **The Scoop on Hotjar** Hotjar is a new tool featured in Entrepreneur magazine that specifically facilitates this process of ongoing website enhancement with growth driven web design.
