Create visited URL events

Visited URL events record when an anonymous visitor or HubSpot contact visits a specific URL on your website.

• In your HubSpot account, navigate to Reports > Analytics Tools.
• Select Events.

• In the upper right, click Manage events.
• In the upper right, click Create event.
• In the right panel, set up your event:
  • Enter an Event name.
  • To easily find and keep track of your event, click the Tags dropdown menu and select a tag.
  • Select Visited URL as the Event type.
• Click Next.

• Enter the URL you want to track visits to in the Page URL field. 

Please note: visited URL events can only be created and tracked on pages that have the HubSpot tracking code installed.

You can use wildcard characters in the page URL when creating a visited URL event. This allows you to track your event on a range of pages without explicitly defining each URL.

Examples of wildcard combinations that will correctly record event completions for visits include:

• http://www.fifthseasonadventure.com/*
• http://www.fifthseasonadventure.com/blog/*
• http://www.*.com/blog
• http://www.*.com/blog/*
• http://*.fifthseasonadventure.com
• http://www.fifthseasonadventure.*/blog

Wildcards following a trailing slash will not include the original page URL. For example http://myblog.com/* will include any pages with subdirectories in the URL beyond myblog.com/, but will not include the page at myblog.com. If the wildcard is entered before the trailing slash, then it will include the original URL. For example, myblog.com* will include myblog.com/my-article and myblog.com.

• Click Save to finish creating your visited URL event.
