Allow external pages to be associated with a Campaign

We use WordPress for our main site and we'd like to be able to associate WordPress pages to Campaigns. At the moment, we can only associate Blog or Landing pages hosted on Hubspot.

 

It seems strange that while we use the Hubspot tracking code, and we can add and monitor CTAs and CTA clicks on these pages, we cannot add them to a Campaign.

 

Does anyone else feel the same?

 

Thanks

We would also like this feature. We have a custom built website (not wordpress) with the tracking code installed. We track landing pages using code like so:
_hsq.push(['setContentType', 'landing-page']);
I think it should be possible to add pages that have been tracked like this as assets to our campaigns.

No update in over 2 years. Pathetic. If you're looking for this feature don't get your hopes up. We can't even get a comment or an update from @Shay

If Hubspot takes its well paying customers serious this, finally after 5 years, is being processed to the next sprints. No company can run a professional marketing operation if they can only measure half of the data via Hubspot. 

For us, a company with over 400 employees and 2 well payed contracts this would be a reason to consider migrating to alternative Marketing Automation platform. (take note most platforms support this feature)

Yes!!!! We need this!! Also, is anyone else having this problem... we used to be able to associate externally posted social media posts to campaigns but we can't anymore. I'm trying to get support of this Forum Idea so HubSpot sees it's important. https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Adding-social-posts-to-HS-campaigns/idi-p/505855

Thanks for your patience whilst we look into this.
As the team continues to work on the feature, we are interested in understanding expected behaviours when associating external (website) pages with a Campaign in HubSpot. If you want to help shape this feature and sign up to be part of the beta (once live), please fill in this 1-minute survey

We've just signed up to HubSpot Enterprise and it would be awesome to report on my WordPress post's performance within a HubSpot campaign report.

I'd need the ability to associate a specific WordPress post with a HubSpot Campaign, reading this post, this may just be the update I am looking for!

 

Is there an update since December on this? Timeline?

Would love to be able to do this.  We're tracking content closer this year and would like to see how pieces influence revenue. We don't currently use HubSpot for our landing pages or blogs, so having the ability to track the url would be helpful!

Please put this on priority! It's difficult for the Campaigns feature to have real value without this feature and the ability to add sequences. If you can't track touchpoints and meetings, there isn't much actionable use. But this is a tool I really need to have. Can't wait for this to be a reality!

This would be super helpful. As mentioned previously, it does seem pretty straightforward but requires rearchitecting much of the campaign's tool. Ideally, I would love to have an area when linking assets to a campaign where I can insert a URL of an external webpage or blog (as long as the website has the tracking code), and then it adds that page to the campaign.

I see the last reply by @JennyMueller was just under a fortnight ago. Replying to show interest as I'd like to track a campaign in one of our sub-domains that's not hosted on Hubspot.

Any update on this? It's been 3 weeks since @JennyMueller 's last comment. We are really excited for this feature and cannot wait to implement it w/our lead management process..!

Hi! Any update on implementing this feature, please? We are about to start a new campaign and would really like to link a non-hubspot landing page to it, thanks!

@JennyMueller Do you have an update on timeframes? We would very much like to have this feature. We have a drupal site and want to be able to attach the content to Hubspot campaigns. Thanks!
