A conversion pixel is a way to generate better and more accurate statistics for your campaigns.
Once the pixel is implemented on your website, you can start to understand if your ads are effectively generating conversions, and make data-driven decisions.
The process of installing conversion pixels involves copying 2 short html codes from your campaign page (located in Tracking pixel in the options menu), to your website on the designated pages you would like to track conversions for.
When web visitors are redirected to your campaign URL, our system adds a unique identifier to your website URL. This way, the Landing page pixel can securely save a cookie in your visitors' browser, only to be fetched later on if the visitor gets to your "Thank you" page. At this point, the cookie is deleted from the browser, and your conversions meter increments for relevant campaigns and ads that brought the visitor to your website in the first place.
