API Connection & Performance Drop
2

Hi,

I've been running my campaigns only with web events using the same pixel for years. However, since I installed the API conversion 2weeks ago, I noticed a big performance drop in sales, Acquisition costs and traffic quality. I'm thinking maybe the new API data are corrupting all the previous web events collected for months in my dataset.

I'm thinking about creating a new dataset receiving web event and API conversion data all together from the beginning, but just want to check with the community before changing everything.

Thanks a lot for your support.

👋 Hello Laurent, I understand all your problems.you have been running your campaigns only with web events using the same pixel for years. Recently you setup Conversion API Tracking. You noticed a big performance drop in sales, Acquisition costs and traffic quality. We know that if Facebook doesn't have the right data, we can't do retargeting or remarketing, or generate loyal customers. For this we need to setup Facebook Pixel and Conversion API properly.

Because your Facebook Pixel and Conversion API data is not coming to the Event Manager correctly. As a result, you will lose a lot of money in your business if you remarketing retargeting to them. As you prepare to create a new dataset. I would suggest you to setup Facebook pixel and Conversion API with new dataset. This allows you to run your ad to the right audience and retargeting to that audience.

As you may know, there are lots of ways to setup Facebook Pixel and Conversion API Tracking on the website 1. Manually code 2. Partner Integration 3. PixelYourSite 4. Woocommerce Plugin 5. Meta & Instagram app 6. Google Tag Manager

The most popular event-tracking tool here is Google Tag Manager. If you want to send accurate data to your advertising platform or analytics platform. Also If you want to optimize your ad then Google Tag Manager is the best.
