Hotjar

Hotjar records how visitors behave on a website: heatmaps of clicks and scrolling, session recordings, on-page surveys and feedback widgets; it belongs to Contentsquare.

The 380,757 sites running Hotjar are mostly operated by marketing and product teams: SaaS companies, online shops, agencies, publishers and lead-generation businesses in Europe and North America. Some installs on low-traffic sites are experiments, but a Hotjar script that stays for months usually belongs to a team actively optimising conversion with a budget for tools around it.

Buyers of this list sell to the people who care about conversion rates: CRO and UX agencies, A/B testing and personalisation platforms, user research tools, form and chat vendors, and analytics products that position themselves on privacy. A site that has just added Hotjar is starting an optimisation effort; a site that dropped it has finished a redesign project, switched to a competing tool or cut its martech spend.

Hotjar is installed on 380,757 websites, which is 1.1% of all Analytics detections we record. Websites measured with Hotjar are most often served from United States (145,104), Canada (35,188) and Germany (24,100), and .com, .org and .net are the most common domain endings.

Questions about Hotjar websites

How many websites use Hotjar?

As of November 2, 2026, 380,757 websites load the Hotjar script on their homepage. The number is recalculated every night from our own crawl of the web.

Who buys lists of websites using Hotjar?

Vendors of analytics, A/B testing, consent and personalisation tools, agencies that sell conversion optimisation, and data products that plug into Hotjar. A website that measures itself has a team that looks at numbers; one that just added Hotjar is building that capability, one that dropped it has switched tools.

Where are Hotjar websites hosted?

United States leads with 145,104 websites, followed by Canada (35,188) and Germany (24,100). The country is where the website is served from; sites on a hosted platform show the platform's country.

How do I find websites that just added Hotjar?

The New tab on this page lists websites where our crawler saw Hotjar for the first time in the last days, newest first; the Dropped tab lists the sites that removed it. Both download with a subscription and refresh every morning.

How do I get a list of websites using Hotjar?

A free BetaScan account downloads a {sample_rows}-row sample. A subscription from $69 a month gives the full list of 380,757 domains, or a dataset with emails, phones, country, hosting and ranks, filtered by country, TLD, rank and registration date. See pricing.

How does BetaScan detect Hotjar?

Our crawler fetches the homepage of every domain we track and matches the page and its response headers against the signatures of 7,636 technologies. A website counts as using Hotjar when its latest crawl shows the signature; when the signature disappears, the site moves to the dropped list.

How can you tell a website uses Hotjar?

The tracking snippet defines a window._hjSettings object with the numeric site id and loads a script from static.hotjar.com whose file name contains that id. Surveys and feedback buttons rendered by Hotjar add elements with class names starting with _hj. The snippet is also commonly injected through Google Tag Manager, in which case it appears only after the page scripts run.

What does a new Hotjar site mean for a seller?

Somebody at the company has just decided to study how visitors use the site, which usually precedes a redesign, a landing-page test or a checkout optimisation. That is the moment CRO agencies, A/B testing vendors and UX consultancies want to start a conversation, before the budget for the project is allocated to someone else.

Is Hotjar used by large companies or small ones?

Both, with the centre of gravity in small and mid-sized businesses. Enterprises more often run Contentsquare itself or a session-replay product bundled with their analytics suite, while startups and SMBs pick Hotjar for its free tier and simple setup. A site with Hotjar plus an enterprise CMS or a paid A/B tool is a reasonable proxy for a larger marketing team.
