How does link retargeting work?
When someone clicks your LinkTwin short link, the link page loads your tracking pixels (Meta, Google, TikTok and the others you picked) before it sends the visitor on. Each click is reported to your ad accounts, so the people who clicked can join your audiences even when the link goes to a website you don't own. You can then retarget them with ads on Facebook, Instagram, Google, TikTok and more.
Which ad platforms are supported?
Thirteen: Meta (Facebook) Pixel, Google Ads, Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, TikTok Pixel, X (Twitter) Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, Pinterest Tag, Snapchat Pixel, Reddit Pixel, Microsoft Advertising (Bing), Quora Pixel and AdRoll. You can put several pixels on the same link to build audiences on all your platforms at once.
Can I add pixels to affiliate links?
Yes! This is one of the most popular use cases. When you promote affiliate products (Amazon, ClickBank, software, etc.), you can't add your pixels to the merchant's website. With LinkTwin, you add your pixels to the short link itself, so you capture audience data before redirecting to the affiliate offer. This lets you retarget everyone who clicked, even if they didn't buy.
Will this affect my link speed or user experience?
Only a little. A link with pixels waits until your pixel scripts have loaded, then opens the app or website, so visitors see a short pause. Links without pixels open straight away. If a pixel is blocked or fails to load, the link still opens.
Is link retargeting included in the free plan?
Retargeting pixels come on every plan. Each plan with pixels includes a set number of them that you can save and reuse on any of your links. The free plan is a good way to try deep links and click analytics first. Compare what each plan includes on the pricing page.
Does the pixel track sales on the site I link to?
No. The pixel runs on your LinkTwin link page, so it records the click itself as a page view, plus the extra event you chose for a Meta pixel. It can't see what visitors do on Amazon or any other site you link to. For sales there, use that site's own reports, such as your Amazon Associates report.
Do pixels work on links that open apps?
Yes. The link page loads your pixels first, then opens the YouTube, Amazon or Spotify app, or the web page when the app is not installed. You don't have to choose between deep linking and retargeting.
Can I add one pixel to all my links at once?
Yes. On the Tracking Pixels page, select a pixel and choose Add to All Links. Remove from All Links undoes it, and you can still pick pixels link by link when you create or edit a link.
Can my link in bio page fire pixels too?
Yes. In the bio page editor you choose which of your saved pixels fire when someone opens the page, so a LinkTwin bio page works like a Linktree pixel, on top of the pixels you add to your links.
