How Do HubSpot Content Hub Forms Work?

Written by Vikram Singh | Jun 13, 2026 3:30:00 PM

Forms are one of the most important tools inside HubSpot Content Hub, especially for businesses focused on lead generation and marketing campaigns. Forms allow websites to collect information from visitors and automatically store it in the HubSpot CRM.

When a visitor fills out a form on a page, their details—such as name, email, or company—are saved as a contact in HubSpot. This allows businesses to track interactions, follow up with leads, and build marketing workflows.

Understanding how HubSpot Content Hub forms work is essential for turning website visitors into leads.

What Is a HubSpot Content Hub Form?

A HubSpot Content Hub form is a tool used to collect information from website visitors.

Forms are commonly used on:

  • Landing pages
  • Contact pages
  • Resource download pages
  • Webinar registration pages
  • Newsletter sign-up pages

Once a form is submitted, the data is automatically stored in HubSpot’s CRM, where it can be used for sales and marketing activities.

Creating a Form in HubSpot Content Hub

To create a form in HubSpot Content Hub, go to the forms section in your HubSpot portal.

Navigate to:

Marketing → Lead Capture → Forms

Click Create Form to begin building a new form.

HubSpot provides a drag-and-drop form builder that allows you to add fields easily.

Adding Form Fields

Forms typically include fields that collect important contact information.

Common fields include:

  • First name
  • Last name
  • Email address
  • Company name
  • Phone number

You can also create custom fields if you need to collect specific information relevant to your business.

Embedding Forms on Pages

Once a form is created, it can be added to pages within HubSpot Content Hub.

Forms can be embedded using:

  • Landing page templates
  • Page modules in the drag-and-drop editor
  • Embedded form code on external websites
  • This flexibility allows businesses to capture leads from multiple sources.

What Happens After Form Submission?

After a visitor submits a form, several actions can occur automatically.

These may include:

  • Creating or updating a contact in HubSpot CRM
  • Sending a confirmation email
  • Redirecting the visitor to a thank-you page
  • Triggering a marketing workflow

These automated actions help businesses follow up with leads quickly and efficiently.

Tracking Form Performance

HubSpot provides analytics that help track how well your forms are performing.

You can monitor metrics such as:

  • Number of form views
  • Submission rates
  • Conversion rates
  • Source of submissions

These insights help marketers improve their campaigns and optimize lead generation strategies.

Final Thoughts

Forms are a powerful feature within HubSpot Content Hub because they connect website interactions directly with the HubSpot CRM. By capturing visitor information and automating follow-up actions, forms help businesses turn website traffic into valuable leads.

When used effectively, HubSpot forms can become a central part of a company’s marketing and sales strategy.
