background images - Used as the background on many Leadpages templates, these images can make pages more visually interesting for users.

builder - Leadpages’ tool for building landing pages from our customizable templates.

conversion - Conversion is tracked based on the type of call-to-action (CTA) configured for your page or conversion tool. If your CTA directs people to an opt-in form, conversion is measured by the number of unique submissions to the list integrated with that opt-in form. If your CTA directs people to a URL, conversion is measured based on the number of unique visits to your page (not on whether they completed a transaction on the URL you sent them to.) Keep in mind, Leadpages tracks these conversions regardless if single or double opt-in are activated.

published pages - Saved pages that are ready to be shared with the public or your users.
