Leadpages Analytics Enhancement: Adding LandLift for Section-by-Section Insights

Learn how to add LandLift's powerful section-by-section analytics to your Leadpages landing pages in under 5 minutes. This simple setup reveals exactly where visitors engage, scroll, click, and exit—so you can stop guessing and start optimizing the right sections to boost conversions.

Leadpages gives you great templates and conversion tools, but it doesn't tell you why visitors convert or bounce. That's where LandLift comes in—showing you exactly how visitors interact with each section of your page so you know what to improve.

Here's how to add LandLift to your Leadpages landing page in under 5 minutes.

Step 1: Add the LandLift Tracking Script

First, grab your LandLift tracking script from your dashboard, then add it to your Leadpage:

  1. Open your landing page in the Leadpages editor

  2. Click the Settings gear icon in the left sidebar

  3. Navigate to the Analytics tab

  4. Paste your LandLift tracking script into the Head Section Tracking Code box

  5. Click Save

That's it—your script is now active on this page. The 5KB script won't slow down your page and works alongside any other analytics you're already using (Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, etc.).

Step 2: Set Up Version Tracking

Version tracking lets you compare how changes affect your page performance. Every time you update your Leadpage, just bump the version number and LandLift automatically tracks it.

Add this meta tag to your tracking code (right after your LandLift script):

<meta name="landlift-version" content="1.0">

Version numbering made simple:

  • Small tweaks (headline, button color, testimonial swap): 1.0 → 1.1 → 1.2

  • Major changes (redesigned hero, new page structure): 1.0 → 2.0 → 3.0

When you make changes, just update the version number in your meta tag. LandLift handles the rest—no separate pages or traffic splitting needed.

Step 3: Name Your Page Sections

LandLift tracks engagement section by section, but it needs to know where each section starts and ends. Luckily, Leadpages makes this dead simple with its built-in section naming feature.

Here's how to name your sections:

  1. In the Leadpages editor, click Layout in the left sidebar

  2. Hover over any section and click the edit icon next to its title

  3. Give it a clear, descriptive name like:

    • hero

    • benefits

    • testimonials

    • pricing

    • cta

    • faq

    • footer

  4. Repeat for all main sections on your page

Pro tip: Keep section names short and lowercase for consistency. Use names that make sense to you—LandLift will track them exactly as you name them.

Step 4: Verify Everything Works

Before you start collecting data, make sure LandLift can see your sections:

  1. Click Update in the top-right corner of the Leadpages editor to publish your changes

  2. Go back to your LandLift dashboard

  3. Click Analyze next to your landing page

  4. You should see a screenshot of your page with all detected sections highlighted in green

If any sections are missing, double-check that you've named them in the Leadpages Layout settings.

What Happens Next?

LandLift starts tracking visitor behavior immediately, but you'll need at least 100-200 sessions before the data becomes reliable enough for decision-making. Once you hit that threshold, you'll see:

  • Click patterns showing which sections drive the most action

  • Time spent revealing where visitors engage vs. skim

  • Exit points identifying exactly where you're losing people

  • Scroll depth showing how far visitors actually read

  • AI recommendations suggesting specific improvements for each section

Quick Tips for Better Insights

Test one thing at a time: Change your headline? Update to version 1.1 and see exactly how it affects hero engagement and scroll-through rates. This targeted approach beats testing entire page redesigns.

Watch mobile separately: Leadpages is mobile-responsive, but visitor behavior differs drastically between devices. LandLift tracks desktop and mobile separately so you can optimize both experiences.

Focus on your biggest leaks: Check which section has the highest exit rate and fix that first. Small improvements in problem sections often beat major overhauls of sections that already work.

Why This Combo Works

Leadpages gives you speed—beautiful pages built fast. LandLift gives you intelligence—knowing exactly what those pages do and how to make them better. Together, they help you build landing pages that don't just look good, but actually convert more visitors into customers.

No complex setup, no developer required, no waiting weeks for answers. Just add the script, name your sections, and start seeing exactly where your conversions are hiding.
