On a website there are often different ways (direct links) to go from site A to site B
e.g there is

  • a menu acessible on site A containing a link to site B
  • there is a "next" button at the end of an article one site A which leads to site B
  • there are previews of articles to similar topics shown at the bottom of site A containing a link to site B

  2. which way does a specific visitor choose from site A to B?
  3. which location is the best to attract visitors to visit another site?
  4. ...

If it is relevant which link is used I guess the best choice would be a heatmap.
