A hotspot banner provides a visual display of products clustered on a page for a particular purpose. It could be a school year book pack. Or the compulsory set of uniform items a new starter has to purchase. Or spare parts for a specific machine. Or it could even be an attractive way to display newly arrived items your site is selling. Each product in the banner has a clickable hotspot - usually a small circle. When that area is clicked, the viewer is taken to the product on the same page, where it can be added to cart.
