Basic Metrics to report on Website Performance
There are a variety of Basic HubSpot Marketing Metrics available in Databox that allow you to analyze your Website Performance. This includes "Sessions," "Sessions by Source," "Page Views," "Bounce Rate," and more.

Add any significant Website Metrics to your Metrics screen by hovering over the logo in the top right of the Metric block and clicking + Add to my Metrics.
Custom Metrics to report on Website Performance
Custom Website Performance Metrics can be built using the Metric Builder for HubSpot Marketing (Website Pages).
Metric Builder is available on the Professional and higher plans. Request a trial of Metric Builder by following these steps.
Using this Metric Builder, you can create Custom Metrics to report on Metrics like "Entrances," "Avg Time on Page," "Exit Rate," "Contacts per Page View," and more. You can report on all Website Pages, or you can use Filters to differentiate between pages based on the Page Title.
This is especially valuable if you have a naming convention for Website Pages in your HubSpot portal. For example, if all Pricing Pages have "Pricing" in the Page Title, you can add a Filter to only include data for Pricing Pages to report on Pricing Page Performance.
Calculated Metrics to report on Website Performance
It's often valuable to report on Conversion Rates, such as "Session-to-Lead Conversion Rate." These Metrics can be created using Data Calculations.
For example, to calculate "Session-to-Lead Conversion Rate," you can use the equation "New Leads" divided by "Sessions."
You may also want to report on the Session-to-Lead Conversion Rate for specific Sources.
Rather than creating a new Calculated Metric for each Source, you can use the equation "New Leads by Source" divided by "Sessions by Source" without selecting a specific Dimension for either.
The resulting Calculated Metric will report on "Session-to-Lead Conversion Rate by Source."
To view the Conversion Rate for a specific Source, you will then need to set up your Datablock in a way that prompts you to select a specific Dimension (Source). Learn how to select a specific Source on a Datablock here.

Custom Metrics for CTA Performance
To track the performance of a specific CTA, you can create Active Lists in your HubSpot Marketing Account.
To do this, create an Active List that tracks Contacts who have clicked the CTA. This will make it so all Contacts who have clicked the CTA are added to the Active List.
The Active List can be synced with Databox using the Basic Metric "Contacts by Active List." This Metric will always display the total number of Contacts in the Active List. Using this Metric, no historical data is initially available.
In order to view the number of New Contacts who entered the list (or new CTA Clicks), you can use the Metric Builder for HubSpot Marketing (Active Lists).
Metric Builder is available on the Professional and higher plans. Request a trial of Metric Builder by following these steps.
Learn more about best practices when creating Active Lists to sync Contact data here.
A separate Active List must be created for every Form that you want to report on.
Forms
Form submission data is currently only accessible using Active Lists within HubSpot Marketing.
To start tracking this data in a way that is accessible via HubSpot's API, create an Active List that tracks Contacts who have submitted the Form. This will make it so Contacts who have submitted the Form are added to the Active List.
The Active List can be synced with Databox using the Basic Metric "Contacts by Active List." This Metric will always display the total number of Contacts in the Active List. Using this Metric, no historical data is initially available.
In order to view the number of New Contacts who entered the list (or new Form Submissions), you can use the Metric Builder for HubSpot Marketing (Active Lists)
