Page names and settings (updated for the 2026 release)

Snoobi Analytics has several methods to view the webpage-based analytics data.

Page names can be created in three ways:

As the complete url, showing the url and any additional elements (for instance advertising codes)
With the title provided by the HTML-title tag in the website code for that page
As the 'clean' url, meaning that any parameter after the first question mark (?) is stripped.

Whichever method you choose, you can always create a single page name manually.
However, we do not recommended this unless really necessary.

⚠️ Warning! Changing page name settings involves recalculation of all Snoobi reports, as many metrics and calculations are depending on this page name. Depending on the size of your account, that can take quite a while and in the mean time the report is not accessible.
It can also be that segmentation, filters or reports are based on page names. Contact Snoobi Support if unsure

Additional information

For page naming based on html-title:
When page names are linked a an url, that 'link' between name and url is maintained in Snoobi when the data is collected. If the &page_name information in the Snoobi tag or the html-title changes later, the same url will show a different page name.
That is correct, as the link between url and page name are made at the time of data collection.
For page naming as 'clean url':
This is the most used page naming, it avoids potential problems with page names that are variable. I also clears all the 'noise' from the url such as all utm-codes or other url-extended coding.
This is also the default for new Snoobi accounts with the exception of the free Snoobi Dashboard.

Contact Snoobi Support if you are unsure what method to choose or how to handle the settings.
