Blog analytics

LDewit — Fri, 06 Dec 2024 01:27:45 GMT

To quickly access blog views, CTA clicks, or other analytics for a specific blog post, I used to simply click on the dropdown menu (as shown in the screenshot below) from the blog content listing in HubSpot, then search for the desired blog to view its stats. However, the new process redirects me to the reporting page, which is far less user-friendly.

How can I efficiently search for a specific blog's analytics now? Why am I required to customize the columns I want to see every single time I access the page? Even when I select the columns I need and save the report to a dashboard, those preferences are not retained. Isn't one of HubSpot's primary purposes to provide seamless access to analytics? The lack of a search bar for this functionality is incredibly frustrating.

Related, the listing of blogs, landing pages, or website pages don't link to the pages like they used to, adding ANOTHER extra step. Can we get the previous analytics hub back, please?

Hi @LDewit,

I don't recall any instances where HubSpot rolled back these kind of changes, unfortunately, sometimes even despite a lot of negative feedback. Think back to the change of the menu from the top of the screen to the left of it, for example.

Still, the best way to provide this feedback would be through the HubSpot Ideas section of the community: https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/idb-p/HubSpot_Ideas

The product team reviews these requests based on their popularity. Additionally, once you have the link to a request, you can share it with your HubSpot customer success manager and ask them to log it as a roadblock.

Best regards!

I agree. This change is jarring. The previous "Blog Analytics" page was incredibly useful and user-friendly. All necessary information was easy to find. Really hope they bring back the previous "Blog Analytics" page as this current iteration just adds more steps for a less useful result.
