Why Rage Clicks matters
Rage clicks point directly at friction. Visitors rarely click repeatedly on something that works, so a spike on a page often means a broken button, a slow response, or an element that looks clickable but is not.
Unlike most metrics, they come with a place to look. Clarity pairs them with session recordings and heatmaps, so you can watch what the visitor was trying to do and fix that exact problem.
How to read it
In general, fewer is better, and ideally a key page such as checkout or sign-up has almost none. There is no universal target, so use your own baseline and look for pages where the share of sessions with rage clicks stands out.
Not every flagged session is a real problem. A few rage clicks on a slow-loading page can disappear once the page speeds up, so check the recordings before changing anything.
How to improve it
- Watch recordings of sessions with rage clicks on your most important pages.
- Fix elements that look clickable but do nothing, such as images, labels and headings.
- Speed up slow interactions and add visible loading or confirmation states.
- Test forms and buttons on mobile devices where taps often miss.
- Re-check the page after each fix to see if rage clicks drop.
Common mistakes
- Ignoring them because overall traffic metrics look fine.
- Changing a page without watching recordings to understand the cause.
- Treating every flagged session as a bug when some are just slow loading.
- Testing only on desktop when the problem happens on mobile.
