SITE RETARGETING

Target users who have recently visited your site but have left and gone to a new site.

EXAMPLE: A potential consumer visits your site and looks at your cars. Unfortunately, 97% of first-time visitors don’t take action. As he surfs the web, he is served your ad a few days or even minutes later, reminding him of your cars and your dealership. Use special offers to bring him back to your site or to your showroom.
