After you have signed up for Leadfeeder and installed your tracking script,
you can kick back and watch the leads roll in.
Now that you are swimming in data you will want to find out what to do with it all. Luckily with in Leadfeeder we have designed a comprehensive dashboard to navigate all of you incoming leads.
✅ Leadfeeder dashboard basics
The Leadfeeder dashboard has three main three sections: Feeds, Leads, and Insights.
The feeds are custom rules used to filter leads. There are three basic feeds: All leads, New leads, and Top leads.
You can also create custom feeds. For example, if you want to see leads only from Norway, you could create a custom feed to show only leads from that country.
The center panel displays a list of leads for whichever feed you select. These can be filtered by date range or sorted by quality.
If you click on a lead or specific filter, you'll see more details in the right panel.
✅ Leadfeeder dashboard settings
Before diving into your data, take a few minutes to get familiar with the settings in Leadfeeder Dashboard, including Website Accounts, Account and User Settings, and Learn More.
✅ Website Accounts
The website option allows you to switch between sites if you have multiple sites. You can track multiple websites in Leadfeeder, so you'll want to make sure you're looking at the correct data.
If you only have one website, this area might not be clickable. Don't worry, that's just the way it's supposed to be!
✅ Account and User Settings
Now for the super fun stuff — changing your name, billing information, integrations, and so forth.
Head to the upper right corner of your dashboard and click on your name to view your account and user's settings.
Here you can change your name, contact information, and notification details.
At the top of the settings screen, you'll see three tabs: Personal, Company, and Account.
The personal tab allows you to adjust your contact information, password, email notifications, invitations, referral program, and Zapier tokens.
The company tab allows you to adjust which CRM you use, marketing tools, billing information, and additional accounts. This is also where you can add other users to your plan and adjust access rights and permissions.
The account tab lets you change your company name, time zone, define Leadfeeder traffic filtering rules, set up automation, and view integrations.

✅ Leadfeeder feed filters
This is where the magic happens. (Yeap, it's so important we even put it in our name.)
Leadfeeder feeds are the heart of our tool — these are the rules that let you sort and filter all those juicy leads so you can hone on in the best companies to target.
Here's what you need to know:
There are two types of feeds — basic and custom. Basic feeds include All leads, New Leads, and Top leads. Learn how to create a custom feed here.
✅ Leadfeeder feed analytics
Our Feed analytics allow you to sort leads so you can get your hands on the most valuable leads for your company.
For example, you might check the New Leads filter to see companies that have visited your site in the last seven days. Or, you might want to see leads from companies that are in your CRM.
Feed analytics lets you dive in even deeper to see, at a glance, which countries and industries generate the most leads for your business in a given time period.
Step 1: Choose a Feed in the left panel.
Step 2: Choose the date range you want to view data on in the center panel.
Step 3: Look at the right-hand panel to see insights about the number of leads, average leads per day, top countries, and more.
✅ Feed insights
Feed insights offer insights of a specific feed. For example, if you choose All Leads as your feed, you'll see a list of leads in the middle panel and Insights in the right panel.
Insights include the total number of leads in that feed, average leads per day, and top industries.
✅ Leadfeeder leads
As we said before, the center panel displays all the leads in a specific filter.
For example, if you click All Leads on the left sidebar, you'll see, well, all the leads listed in the center panel.
Magic, right? 🔮
If you click on a lead in the center panel, you'll see insights about that lead displayed in the right panel, including the company name, website, industry, size, and quality of the lead.
If you scroll down in the right panel you can also view Lead contacts, which we'll cover a bit later.
