Pixels are tracking objects that can be used for 'retargeting' .  These are essential for engaging your website visitors. They are so important that once they are set up and the campaigns are done right, you'll discover a huge increase in your sales. They are a very cost-effective way to reach BACK to people who have visited your website before.  We believe that in today's digital world, retargeting plays a more important role in marketing than even 'opt-in emails'.  You can reach people directly who visit your website and remind them that you exist. Below are links to tutorials to help you set these up. Contact us if you need help installing these pixels on your websites.  We highly recommend every page in your website has these pixels in place before you do any kind of traffic or marketing campaign.
