Want to set up an online shop for your organisation but don’t know where to start? This one-hour webinar, led by Emma Roberts, the Digital Culture Network’s Tech Champion for eCommerce and Merchandising, takes you through the fundamentals of launching a successful online shop. Packed full of arts and culture examples, success stories and best practice for driving sales and customer loyalty, this webinar was recorded in October 2020 and includes a live Q&A at the end.
The key ingredient for success in eCommerce is in the detail, whether that is identifying the sales potential, understanding your customer base, profit margins and user experience or analysing how well your marketing strategies are performing. In this webinar, we address these key factors with useful marketing models and examples which you can use to kick start your online shop today.

HotJar
This should be found in Session storage (as opposed to cookies). This gets updated when a visitor recording starts and when data is sent through the WebSocket (the visitor performs an action that Hotjar records).
Session
_hjTLDTest
HotJar
When the Hotjar script executes we try to determine the most generic cookie path we should use, instead of the page hostname. This is done so that cookies can be shared across subdomains (where applicable). To determine this, we try to store the _hjTLDTest cookie for different URL substring alternatives until it fails. After this check, the cookie is removed.
Session
_hjUserAttributesHash
HotJar
User Attributes sent through the Hotjar Identify API are cached for the duration of the session in order to know when an attribute has changed and needs to be updated.
Session
_hjCachedUserAttributes
HotJar
This cookie stores User Attributes which are sent through the Hotjar Identify API, whenever the user is not in the sample. These attributes will only be saved if the user interacts with a Hotjar Feedback tool.
Session
_hjLocalStorageTest
HotJar
This cookie is used to check if the Hotjar Tracking Script can use local storage. If it can, a value of 1 is set in this cookie. The data stored in_hjLocalStorageTest has no expiration time, but it is deleted almost immediately after it is created.
