Eye tracking is really popular these days, but you have to be very careful how you interpret eye tracking studies.  Just because someone looked at something on the screen doesn&#8217;t mean they paid attention to it!

If people are unsure what to do, they tend to pick the first item on the list.  But you can change this tendency in various ways. If you have three choices that are similar but priced differently\u2014for example, a silver, gold, and platinum level\u2014people will tend to choose the option that is in the middle of the price range.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RM: Thanks Susan; we&#8217;re looking forward to seeing you in Minneapolis next month!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You probably already know Susan\u2014&#8221;the brain lady&#8221;\u2014from her wonderful books, including 100 Things Every Designer Needs To Know About People, and Neuro Web Design: What makes them click?
