Good Resource for Using Google Tags with Retargeting Pixels?

by Kurt
5 replies
Anyone know of a good resource for teaching how to use Google Tags with retargeting pixels?


A while back I came across a good tutorial for this, but can't seem to find it.


Anyway, what this does is you add a Google "tag" to your web pages. Then if you want to add another retargeting pixels instead of updating all your pages you just need to update your Google tag.

Using Google Tags for multiple retargeting pixels is also supposed to make your pages load a lot faster than if you added multiple individual retargeting pixels to your pages.


For example, you can add retargeting pixels from Facebook, Perfect Audience, Google and now even Pinterest (and others) to Google Tags and install a single "tag" on your pages to fire all these retargeting pixels.


Can anyone help with this?

    Due to the lack of knowing which would be the best video to post, I just did a youtube search for the term "Google Tags with retargeting pixels" and a long list of training videos poped up.

    I would suggest maybe doing this and you might be able to find the answers your looking for in a video

    Hope this helps,

      Thanks, but I did that before posting. The multiple videos I watched simply showed how to add a single tracking pixel. They didn't explain how to add multiple tracking pixels to Google Tag Manager.


      I figured it out. It was mostly confusion on my part on how GTM calls containers "accounts".

          I probably won't make a video for it. Just watch the videos for adding tracking pixels to Google Tag Manager and understand that you just need to add additional pixel code to the same "account".

          My issue was I thought "account" meant another entirely different Google account, where an "account" in Google Tags Manager is really just a "container" and each container can have multiple pixel tracking codes. Once you understand this, it's pretty easy.

          I plan on adding tracking pixels for:
          Adwords
          Bing
          Twitter
          Pinterest
          FB
          PerfectAudience

          This will probably cover 99% of the Web.

          May as well build lists for each since building the tracking lists are free and you only pay when you advertise to the lists.

          There's some big time marketers that feel "collecting" pixels is more important than email addresses.
