Prospects are visitors to your site that have not yet converted on a form. The website visits tool uses the HubSpot tracking code to detect the IP address for each page view. It then surfaces publicly available information about the company associated with the visitor's IP address so you can learn more about the visitors to your site.

Please note: visits from IP addresses that you exclude from analytics will still be tracked by the website visits tool.

Smaller companies and individuals may not have their own IP addresses. In those cases, the prospect will appear as the internet service provider (e.g., Comcast, Cox, Verizon). By default, the website visits tool will filter these prospects out using the Internet service provider | is equal to | false filter. You can remove this by clicking the x on the filter.

The HubSpot tracking code is automatically installed on your HubSpot pages. If you're hosting your website externally, learn how to install the HubSpot tracking code on your site.

To view your website visits report:

  • In your HubSpot account's global search bar, enter Website Visits.
  • Click Website Visits.

Please note: the Number of page views and the Number of visitors data is capped at 100,000. Additional views or visitor figures will not be reflected in your account after this number is reached.

Manage prospects

Once the tracking code is added, prospects will appear in the prospects tool as they visit your site.

  • To segment your prospects, create filters or use the search bar to search for prospects by keywords, such as state or country.
    • To hide a prospect, select the checkbox next to the prospect, then click Hide at the top of the table. Hidden prospects will not appear in the daily email.

Please note: To unhide your prospects, contact HubSpot Support. Support can only unhide all hidden prospects per user. Individual prospects can not be unhidden.

  • To favorite a prospect, click the favorite star icon next to the prospect. This will add the prospect to your Favorites filter, which you can use to set up prospect notifications.
  • To add a prospect as a company record in your database, click the + plus icon to the right of the prospect. To add prospects as company records in bulk, select the checkboxes to their left and click + Add to database at the top of the table.
  • To customize the columns in the website visits tool:
    • In the upper right, click the Actions dropdown menu, then select Edit columns.
    • In the dialog box, select the checkboxes next to the properties you want to include in your prospects tool, then click Save.
