With Facebook Pixel, we can also create audiences based on behavior and triggers.
Your business gets a list of options for creating an audience of users who have interacted with it.
If you select “Website” as a source, you can select an activity or a particular page to retarget.
One of the most amazing features of Facebook Audience is the lookalike audience.

Facebook will show your ads to people just like John Doe, meaning people with similar behavior, preferences, backgrounds, and other factors! What an amazing thing!
We can choose how broad or narrow our lookalike audience should be.
