Most people who visit your site leave without buying. For years that was the end of the story. A small piece of tracking code changes it. By placing a pixel on your site, you can recognize those visitors later and show them relevant ads, turning anonymous traffic into an audience you can win back.
What the pixel does
- Recognizes visitors so you can build audiences from them.
- Tracks conversions so you can measure what your ads actually drive.
- Lets you retarget people based on the exact pages they viewed.
- Feeds data that improves targeting over time.
Retargeting done right
Retargeting works because it reaches people who already showed interest. The art is in restraint and relevance. Match the message to what they viewed, cap how often the ad appears, and stop showing it once they convert.
