Automatic Events in PixelYourSite
Automatic Events are ready-made events PixelYourSite can track on any site (even without WooCommerce/EDD). They capture common user actions like clicks, scroll, video engagement, form submits, downloads, search, login/signup, etc.
Why they matter
- Build better audiences (engaged visitors, video watchers, form starters, etc.)
- Measure micro-conversions (so you’re not blind between PageView → Purchase)
- Create “warm” signals you can optimize ads for (especially when you don’t have many purchases yet)
How they work
- You enable the events you want.
- PixelYourSite fires them automatically when the action happens.
- The events can be sent to your enabled tags (Meta, GA4, Google Ads, TikTok, Pinterest, Bing, Reddit) and/or pushed to GTM dataLayer.
