3. Pixels & Tracking
What are Pixels?
Pixels are small pieces of code you place on your website/app to help Growth Channel track actions, build audiences, and measure conversions.
Pixel Types
- Retargeting Pixel: Site-wide; builds remarketing pools.
- Conversion Pixel: Tracks specific actions (form fills, purchases, calls).
- MAID Pixel: Matches Mobile Advertising IDs.
- ABM Pixel: Supports Account-Based Marketing.
How to Create a Pixel
- Navigate to Pixels in the left menu.
- Click Create New Pixel.
- Name it clearly (Advertiser – Type).
- Select Pixel type (for conversions, choose event type).
- Submit and copy the code to give to your developer.
Placement
- Retargeting → All pages.
- Conversion → Thank-you/confirmation pages or tied to events.
Verification
- Return after 24h.
- Check for data (fires, last activity in the Growth Channel platform).
- If no fires, confirm placement with developer.
Edit/Delete
- Edit details anytime.
- Delete only if not needed (removes data permanently).
Why This Matters
Pixels fuel retargeting, conversion tracking, and optimization. Without them, campaigns cannot attribute results.
