# Facebook Pixel

This clever little piece of code is Facebook's very own analytic tool. It sits in the background of your website, out of view, tracking your customer's **every** move. Not just on Facebook and Instagram, but over **multiple** websites too. 

To read more about it, head over to our dedicated page on [**Freewebstore.com**](https://freewebstore.com/Facebook_Pixel.html)**.**

### **How do I create a Facebook Pixel and add it to my store?**

### Getting Started

#### 1. Log in to your Facebook account for your page and head to the Events Manager.

2\. Once there, ensure that the sidebar is expanded by clicking the very bottom icon labeled "expand" on hover so that the "Connect Data Sources" button can be visible, click "Connect Data Sources".

6\. You will then be asked to **Name your Pixel.** This can be anything you like**.** You will also be asked for your website URL. Simply enter this like the example below and click next.
