Page View Pixels

What are Page View Pixels


Page View Pixels are implemented to capture user’s navigation tracking as pageview events. Pageview events then represent the loading or viewing of specific page types on a website/app. The Discovery platform is interested only in selected specific types.

The data gathered by these Pixels helps improve Bloomreach Discovery's search relevance, recommendations engine, and overall user experience by learning more about customer preferences and onsite behavior.

  1. Map all the global tracking variables in the global tracking snippet.

Where to add the tracking snippet


We recommend that you add the page view event code to your master site template footer, which affects every page on your site, including your conversion (HTTPS) pages. This will allow Bloomreach to gather the information we need from your site to support your Bloomreach content and optimize user experience.
