Web Visitors makes it easy to create specific custom feeds for sales use cases. In just a few clicks, you can track visitors coming to your site and target prospects that fit your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) or visit specific pages. The advanced filtering logic allows you to combine conditions with AND/OR operators and use Include and Exclude groups to build precise segments.

As a result, sales can generate more high-quality leads and stay aware when clients or prospects take actions indicating that they're ready to convert.

Let's dive into the 10 most commonly used custom feed filters by sales teams, updated for advanced filtering:


1. Find hot leads showing buying intent on your website

Your sales team should be ready to act when leads show buying intent. With advanced filters, you can identify companies that are not just visiting one key page, but multiple pages, indicating stronger interest. This helps you prioritize outreach to prospects who are actively evaluating your solution.

STEP 1: Click on Create a Custom Feed and name your feed.

STEP 2: In the "Include companies when" section, click on Behavior and add multiple page conditions with AND logic:

  • Page URL contains pricing

  • AND Page URL contains demo

STEP 3: To further qualify these leads, you can add more AND conditions like:

  • AND Visit length is at least 60 seconds

  • AND Page views per visit is at least 3


2. Segment leads based on your sales regions

Automate lead segmentation by territory to ensure reps only see leads from their target regions. Advanced filtering allows you to combine multiple locations using OR logic, providing a comprehensive view of all relevant leads for a specific sales territory.

STEP 1: Click on Create a Custom Feed and name it for your target region.

STEP 2: In the "Include companies when" section, click on Company Details.

STEP 3: Use the following filters to segment by region:

STEP 4: (Optional) Add another filter group to include companies visiting from that region:

  • Visit country is Germany

  • OR Visit country is Austria

  • OR Visit country is Switzerland


3. See companies that abandoned signups

Incomplete sign-ups are no longer a lost opportunity. With Include and Exclude groups, you can precisely identify companies that started the sign-up process but didn't finish. This gives your sales team a list of high-intent leads to follow up with.

STEP 1: Click on Create a Custom Feed and name your feed.

STEP 2: Set up an Inclusion Group:

  • In the "Include companies when" section, click on Behavior and add the filter: Page URL is your-signup-page-url.

  • In the "Exclude companies when" section, click on Behavior and add the filter: Page URL is your-thank-you-page-url.


4. Identify when your ICP is visiting your website

STEP 2: In the "Include companies when" section, click on Company Info.

STEP 3: Use the following filters to define your ICP:
