Abstract

A method of incorporating user reaction measurement software (30, 32, 34) into a particular web page (28) of a website (26) includes receiving an icon selection from a website owner (12) specifying a viewable icon (50) to appear on the particular page (28). The icon (50) has associated user reaction measurement software that includes a call to a directory containing an associated script. The icon (50) is incorporated into the particular page (28) and the directory containing the script is generated for communication together with the particular page (28). The call is also incorporated into software of the particular page (28) such that the user reaction measurement software is able to receive a subjective user reaction to the particular page (28), using the script, from a website user (16) that has accessed the particular page (28).
