1. What is Site Retargeting?
Site retargeting is a display marketing strategy that allows you to re-engage the 95% of site visitors who leave your site without filling out a form through display, to convert more visitors who have already expressed interest in your brand.

They are then served your ads throughout the web as they browse the internet, leading to increased, cost-effective top-of-funnel lead conversions.
