"An attribution window is the defined time period when a marketing touchpoint - such as an ad click, email open, or page view - can be credited for a conversion. Window length directly affects how conversions are counted, how channels perform, and how budget decisions are made. Platforms use different defaults, and these differences often create mismatches in data across tools. Marketers use HubSpot attribution reporting to compare model outcomes with consistent lookback periods and align windows across platforms."
"A marketing attribution window is the time period during which a marketing touchpoint can receive credit for influencing a conversion. This window determines which interactions qualify and controls how analytics tools assign credit. Most platforms set default windows, but marketers customize them based on sales cycle length, campaign type, and channel behavior. Attribution window affects conversion counting. When a window lasts 7 days, tools evaluate touchpoints that occurred within that range. When it lasts 30 days, tools evaluate a larger set of interactions."
An attribution window is the time range during which a marketing touchpoint can receive credit for a conversion. Window length determines which interactions qualify and influences how analytics tools count conversions and assign credit among channels. Short windows capture rapid consumer purchase cycles while longer windows accommodate B2B consideration periods involving research and nurture activities. Platform defaults vary and can create cross-tool reporting mismatches unless lookback periods are aligned. Marketers customize windows and use consistent attribution reporting to compare models, align cross-platform data, and inform spend, messaging, and channel-mix decisions.
