HubSpot offers six hubs, the most popular features and functionality of which are outlined below.
The HubSpot CMS Hub is a purpose-built CMS builder with growth-driven design at its heart.
Growth-Driven Design (GDD) is a user-centric web design philosophy defined by an ongoing cycle of improvement to offer immediate and continued ROI.
You can learn more about Growth-Driven Design through our free eBook, and see how you can create a website that is low-cost, user-driven and up-and-running in as little as a single month.
Great question. We’ve written a comparison of Growth-Driven vs Traditional Design, which you can explore to find your best fit. As a top-level overview, these are the main aspects to consider:
Still not convinced? If you're not capturing your user's attention within 8 seconds, consider the lead lost. GDD considers this carefully and uses subtle but effective elements to maximise those crucial first few seconds of exposure to your brand.
HubSpot’s powerful web design tools have been built to streamline and optimise web design and represent millions of dollars worth of investment and market research.
Their hubs are geared towards businesses, and each tool is designed and refined to deliver ROI. Prioritising the customer, and using design to enhance their experience, growth-driven design can have meaningful and lasting benefits.
And while this isn't a tangible metric, businesses that anticipate and meet the evolving demands of their customers and prospects through design will undoubtedly be the frontrunners for years to come.
If you’re currently using another CMS you’ll need to migrate to HubSpot to take advantage of its benefits.
If you’re on HubSpot already but use other software like Salesforce, or even bespoke tools, you’ll need to look at HubSpot integrations to get everything synced up.
You don't explicitly need a HubSpot Developer to carry out your integrations and migrations, but it's a cost worth considering if you weigh up the time, effort, and technical skills it would require.
HubSpot Onboarding is the process of getting your organisation set up on HubSpot and making sure everything is configured correctly. It's also a great way to explore the features and functionality of each Hub and ensure your team is confident in using the platform.
Your precise needs will vary depending on your goals, the complexity of your business, the software you use, and various other factors.
This is a daunting task for HubSpot beginners.
HubSpot Onboarding with Digital Media Stream removes the pressure and lets you tap into our design, integration, and migration expertise. You also have access to discounted rates, technical support and expertise throughout.
WordPress powers huge swathes of the internet, and it’s available for free. So why would you choose HubSpot?
The answer: WordPress is free to download, but it’s not free to use.
When you crunch the numbers, HubSpot quickly becomes a cost-effective alternative. Here’s what to bear in mind:
