How To Use LinkedIn Website Audience For Remarketing In XPO?

LinkedIn Website Audience   is an audience segment that is created based on LinkedIn members who visited one or more pages on your website which you have tracked using LinkedIn Insight Tag  . By tapping on this audience, you have the opportunity to remarket to such visitors. This can be used to help you track conversions, remarket, and get real-time insights on the professional demographic segments and content preferences of your website visitors through the LinkedIn network.

With XPO, you can use XPO tag to piggyback on LinkedIn Insight Tag to tap on such audiences to gain insights into them via LinkedIn demographic segments and extend the remarketing across multiple channels while simplifying and enabling direct execution from XPO.

Here's how you can link the XPO tag with LinkedIn Insight Tag to create a seamless linkage for remarketing and how it works.

Before You Start

1. Link XPO account with your LinkedIn account.

2. Enable LinkedIn Remarketing Pixel in XPO.

• You can include multiple audience pools under the same segment. All these segments denote the "OR" relationship. Add Segment: to create separate segments that denote "AND" relationship.

MATCHING URL
EQUALS	This rule is used to build audiences when members visit the exact URL on your site. A page that has this exact URL match, is a match on every single character in your URL. Use this when the URLs for your site are static or when you intend to retarget visitors from specific pages. Valid URL required. For example, a URL visited by a visitor might be https://www.example.com/landingpage.
STARTS WITH	This rule is used when you have dynamic parameters at the end of your URL. Your audience will build when members visit any page starting with the URL entered. Valid URL required.  For example, a URL visited by a particular visitor might be https://www.knorex.com page=1&id=9982251615. In this case, the ID at the end varies for every user. You could still match this page by using https://www.knorex.com page=1 as the URL with pages that start with this URL as your match type.
CONTAINS	This rule is used to build audiences from pages on your site that contain keywords or phrases in the URL. This rule can take any alphanumeric value. When you use contains, you don’t need to add the complete URL.  For example, any URL containing HTTPS or www.knorex.com.
