How do I add a Meta Pixel to my website?

The Meta Pixel helps measure Facebook and Instagram ad activity on your website.

1. Open Meta Events Manager.
2. Create or choose the correct pixel.
3. Copy the pixel ID or base code.
4. Install it through Google Tag Manager, your ecommerce platform, or website integration.
5. Use Meta’s testing tools to confirm it fires.
6. Configure events such as PageView, Lead, ViewContent, AddToCart, or Purchase when relevant.

Before you save anything, double-check the details. A tiny typo in DNS, billing, access, or tracking can create a surprisingly loud afternoon.

• Do not install duplicate pixels.
• Consent and privacy requirements may apply.
• Ecommerce tracking often needs event details, not just page views.
