Using Pixels

Pixels are essential tools for marketers and businesses that want to optimize their advertising campaigns. With Nibbitt’s pixel feature, you can easily track customer behavior and gather valuable insights to refine your marketing strategies—all from your short URLs.

What Are Pixels?

Pixels are small pieces of code provided by ad platforms like Facebook and Google Ads. They help you monitor customer interactions on your website, such as page visits, button clicks, or purchases. This data allows you to:

  • Retarget users with relevant ads.

  • Optimize ad campaigns based on user behavior.

  • Measure conversions more effectively.
