I’m working on a website project and need help with visitor tracking

I want to add HubSpot monitoring code to my website so I can see who visits my pages and what they click on. My site is built with PHP and I’ve never used HubSpot before.

I’m really confused about where to put the tracking code and how to make it work properly. Do I need to add it to every page or just certain ones? Also, once it’s installed, how long does it take to start showing visitor data?

I’ve heard that HubSpot can track things like page views and button clicks, but I’m not sure how to set that up. Any step-by-step guidance would be really helpful since I’m totally new to this whole tracking thing.

Has anyone here successfully implemented HubSpot tracking on their PHP website? What should I watch out for during the setup process?

I set up HubSpot tracking on my PHP site six months ago and hit some bumps at first. Drop the tracking code in your header section - if you’ve got a common header.php file that loads on every page, just add it once there instead of manually updating each page. Way easier. Don’t expect instant results though. It takes 24-48 hours before you’ll see real visitor data in your dashboard while the system processes everything. Test your setup with HubSpot’s tracking code checker before launching. Wish someone had told me this: configure your domain settings in HubSpot first or the tracking won’t work right. And watch out for caching plugins - they can mess with the tracking code.
