Meta Keyword and Meta Description Search

Meta keywords and meta description tags are used to describe the content of a page to search engines. When we crawl a store, we capture the meta keywords and meta description tags from the store's home page. These values are used to improve our own search results. When you search for a store in Store Leads, the query matches against a variety of fields including the name of the domain, the name of the merchant, the meta keyword and description fields and others.

CRM Search Filter Continuous Updates

When we first introduced the ability to filter stores based on whether they already exist within your CRM, there was one drawback to the implementation: the search filter was only updated once a day. So, if you added a new company record to your CRM, it could have taken a full 24 hours for our search filters to update. We've just deployed a change that updates the search filters continuously.

CRM Contact Search

About 6 months ago, we added the ability to search for stores that exist as companies or leads in your CRM. That's proven to be one of most popular features for sales teams but there was one thing missing. Until today, it wasn't possible to search for stores associated with contact records in your CRM integrations. We've just added the ability to filter stores based on whether they have a contact record in your CRM.

Failed Webhooks Support Failure Notification Emails

Webhook notifications for workflows can now be configured with a failure notification email(s). Webhook Action. When the webhook cannot be delivered to the target URL, an email will be sent to the provided email(s) describing the reason for the delivery failure. This typically only happens when the target URL times out or returns a HTTP response with a status code greater than HTTP 200. In the past, webhook delivery failures were silent.

Workflow Emails Can Now Be Sent To Multiple Recipients

Workflow email actions can now be configured to deliver to multiple recipients. Just provide multiple email addresses, separated by commas when configuring the action. Create Workflow button.

Relative Dates In Search

One of the most common use cases on Store Leads is to find all stores that have installed an App or Technology in the last week. It's always been possible to search based on fixed date ranges but if you want to re-run that search every week, then you need to set a new date range every week. That's fine for the occasional manual search, but not so great when you want to run it often (for instance, if you've saved a search to a list).

Watches are now Workflows

Our Watch feature allowed you to configure email and webhook notifications for stores that had an App or Technology installed - or stores that matched any search. If you had a CRM integration enabled, Watches also allowed you to automatically created new CRM records for stores matching any custom criteria. We're making Watches more powerful and, as part of that change, we've renamed them to Workflows. Over the coming weeks, we'll be adding a lot of conditional behavior (for instance, if a store matches a search and already exists in HubSpot, then set a custom company property to an arbitrary value) and the new name better represents that functionality.

Chrome extension on social media accounts

The Store Leads Chrome Extension shows relevant information from the Store Leads database when visiting any ecommerce website. The Chrome Extension also shows information out of your CRM (e.g., Salesforce) for any sites that you visit in the browser. We've just extended this functionality to work when looking at the social media account for stores in our database. Now, when you're looking at the Instagram account for Gymshark, or the TikTok account for boohoo, the Chrome Extension will show you relevant data for the brand's ecommerce website.

Sending app installs/uninstalls to HubSpot activity timeline

It's now possible to send events to the HubSpot company activity timeline whenever a store installs or uninstalls an App, Technology or matches a search saved to a List. This can be useful in a number of scenarios since HubSpot lets you search or create workflows based on events in the activity timeline. To learn more about enabling events on the HubSpot activity timeline, see our documentation on Workflows.

Finding Stores With Multiple Domains

Merchants sometimes run stores on multiple domains. This is often done when the merchant offers a country-specific store on each domain. For instance, au.merchant.com may serve the Australian market, while merchant.co.uk sells products to UK customers and merchant.com serves the US or the rest of the world. If a merchant has multiple domains, then it could be a sign that they are more estalished and successful than a merchant with a single domain.
