Tracking Pixels

Tracking pixels are like little beacons that you can use to see if someone has landed on your webpage from another website. They are great for conversion tracking / goal tracking where you can measure the success of your marketing efforts.

Website Remarketing

They are also really handy with remarketing / targeted advertising because now that the user has landed on your website, you can now send particular advertisements to that user, reminding them to come back to your website or take you up on your offer.

You will need a tracking pixel / website tag installed for each advertising channel you are looking to invest in.
