Tracking Pixels: What They Are & Why You Need Them

What is a Tracking Pixel?   We’ve all heard of pixels before. It takes many of them to form the text, images, or videos that we see on our screens.

Across industries, more marketers are using memes to build community, relate to their audience, and stick in their followers’ memory. Here are a couple of reasons why including memes in your marketing strategy is a good idea: Are inexpensive: Memes play off of content that’s created by other people so you don’t need to create an original video or photo yourself. They save small businesses and digital marketers time that would be needed to produce original content. Instead, you can riff off of existing media by adding a new caption or twist. Support community: Memes are funny, and that helps foster community among your followers. They create a sense of belonging because your audience can relate to the situation you refer to and everyone’s in on the same joke.
