  1. The areas where users looked the most are red; then yellow, followed by blue areas. Gray areas didn't get any.Jakob Nielsen’s eyetracking study recorded how 232 users looked at Webpages. Users‘ behavior was fairly consistent. This reading pattern looks somewhat like an F: Users first read in a horizontal movement, usually across the upper part of the content area. This initial element forms the F's top bar. Next, users move down the page a bit and then read across in a second horizontal movement that typically covers a shorter area. This forms the F's lower bar. Finally, users scan the content in a vertical movement. This forms the F's stem.
