Types of Facebook customer conversions: Implement Events and Conversions with your Facebook Pixel tab and click the Create Conversion button in order to select one of the following tracking methods:
- URL-based – URL-based custom conversions allow you to define a subset of standard events as conversions based off keywords in the URL.
- Event-based – Event-based custom conversions allow you to define a subset of standard events as conversions based parameters you send back within the standard events like value or content ID.
- Custom event-based – Custom event-based conversions allow you to define a conversion based off a custom event if the standard events do not capture your specific event.
The Standard Event code(s) only need to be placed on the pages where you want to track and optimize your conversions. To add a standard event(s) to your pixel code Copy everything in the Event Code column for the specific event you want. (For your reference, we’ve included the table here so that you can copy from it.)
