How to Track Click Events on Custom / Self‑Hosted Site

Tracking key user interactions—like CTA clicks or nav link taps—shouldn’t require a dev team or a tag manager. Humblytics makes it incredibly easy to track custom clicks on any website by using HTML attributes, just like you would in Webflow.

This works for:

  • WordPress (via HTML blocks or page builders)

  • Shopify (in Liquid templates)

  • Static HTML sites

  • Framer, Squarespace, Ghost, etc.

Step 1: Install the Humblytics Tracking Script

Add this to the <head> of your site:

<script src="https://app.humblytics.com/optimize.min.js?id=YOURID"></script>

Replace ID with your actual site ID from your Humblytics dashboard.

Step 2: Add a Custom Attribute to Any Clickable Element

To track a specific button or link, just add a custom attribute like this:

<a href="/signup" humblytics="hero-signup-btn">Sign up</a>

Or:

<button humblytics="pricing-cta">View Pricing</button>

No JavaScript. No configuration. Just pure, privacy-first tracking.

Step 3: See Results in Your Dashboard

  1. Go to your Humblytics dashboard

  2. Click on the Clicks tab

  3. Look for your custom attribute value (e.g. hero-signup-btn)\

You’ll see:

  • Click counts

  • Page breakdowns

  • Traffic source filters

  • Device segmentation
