This would seem to be a no brainer. Any timeline for wordpress blog + hubspot campaign functionality?
We also need this integration!!! Hubspot, do you have any comments??? I have managed my landing pages inside of HS but they are so limited in design functionality. I’ve tried MANY templates and they just don’t work as well as a Wordpress page. However, I really need to be able to track my landing pages in HS. PLEASE HELP!
That’s what I’m looking for.
Its basic. Just like the SEO side of the tool. Just integrating a URL in will be such a low hanging fruit for the HS team!
Yes Please! It’s veey important to tie it all together, and forms that have been submitted showing as a stat would also be very good.
This feels pretty basic to me. The HubSpot landing page builder is limited and difficult to use. I am being “forced” to use an inadequate tool. Why would HS do this?
+1 We’re not really using campaigns at the moment as the numbers are a bit meaningless without blog stats
Yes please! I Agreed also. I will be help us more.
Thank you!
+10000 - definitely a requirement. This should be pretty straightforward to implement.
Yes please add this. This is something my real estate clients need as there listings pages are in WordPress and need to be searched for on WordPress.
Yes, We are also facing the same issue, Our blog is on Wordpress and Website built with HTML and PHP. We need to associate and track our external things on hubspot marketing campaigns. Since we are using it for so long we cant able to migrate it easily into hubspot. Need option to add external landing pages into campaigns
I agree!
I love all of the options HubSpot allows, but adding external URLs or WordPresspages to campaigns would be a game changer.
Agreed. Definitely WordPress but of course any other CMS. And more than just CMS, there may be articles that appear on other websites, links and 3rd party assets that live outside the website/blog that should also be attributed to a campaign.
Any news on this??
This is a must for our organization. We have a global presence in our industry and have been well suited with HubSpot since 2015. Since we’ve grown however, we must upgrade our ability to track ROI through campaigns. Since many of our assets live around the web on various platforms (all with the Hubspot tracking code installed) we have to find a way to report on each of them as a cohesive strategy. Hubspot’s campaign functionality doesn’t permit this, and the inability to add assets not built in HubSpot to HubSpot campaigns is such a severe restriction that it’s adding to pressure within our org to move off of HubSpot to a competitor with better reporting. This is a shame as Hubspot has been great in so many other ways.
Also, this community idea says it only has 85ish upvotes -- but it was migrated from another portal with 540+! So it has closer to 700 upvotes! That is a massive indicator of need going overlooked by the product dev team.
@nriley do you have an update for us on this? This is such basic, critical functionality, and doesn’t seem like it would be that hard to build. Clearly there’s a use-case and you understand it, as you made it available for Hubspot blog posts. So why limit it, when you know so many users are on WordPress?
Campaigns are so underbaked, it’s infuriating. Every day I find something new that just doesn’t work at all
Here is a workaround I can think of to include external page views in a Hubspot campaign.
The idea is to create a unique Contact list based on page views for your landing page or external non-hubspot webpage.
1. Go to Contacts Lists and click “Create list”
2. Give your list a name, ideally, something to know it’ll be used for a campaign like “[Campaign] Landing Page A”
3. Make it a “Static List” (Campaigns only support static lists, which means you’ll need to manually refresh the list to update the campaign data)
4. Use the filters to filter to Page View = Your External Webpage (Make sure your external webpage has Hubspot tracking on it)
5. Go to Marketing > Planning & Strategy > Campaigns, create your campaign
6. Add the Static List asset to your campaign:
Tada! Your campaign is now pulling in contacts based on Page Views from an external landing page:
@AxelN that would work great if pages were static, but they are dynamic… new people come to them constantly, so I am trying to solve for having them be automatically added to campaigns.
So another possible solution that Hubspot could provide would be to allow us to use Active Lists. That would work fine.
But Static lists just don’t work for anything that’s dynamic, like a living-breathing website.
This would be so helpful! That would give us much more seamless metrics.
Agreed. This feature is sorely needed, and would be extremely easy to add. I believe that Hubspot is deliberately dragging their feet on it, so as to sell more of their CMS module. However, even with their CMS module, there are still holes in our reporting because of other externally hosted pages that we want to be part of a campaign (all traffic, not just UTM tagged traffic).
I understand that this would have to be limited to pages with the Hubspot tracking code installed.
