How to set up the Taboola pixel

Taboola is a content referral tool in news websites. It operates recommending articles based on recent searches made by the users.

If you use Taboola, you can integrate it to Hotmart to keep track of audience and conversion pixels for each product you have!

The audience pixel is used to make lists of leads that can later be used to direct campaigns.

The conversion pixel, on the other hand, captures actions from users that clicked on your campaigns so you learn about the behavior of users that generated costs (clicks) and measure the return on investment rate in the ad. With the tool update, the conversion pixel now works in an event format.

The events created are:

  1. For a user that gets to the checkout page: hotmart_checkout_<ID Produto>
  2. For a user that makes a purchase: hotmart_purchase_<ID Produto>
