Site Tracking

Enabling Site Tracking on your website allows you to achieve much more with Transpond.

Once enabled, Site Tracking will allow you to see what your contacts are doing on your websites. Contacts who might initially be anonymous on your website can be identified once they interact with your emails or contact forms.

You can then setup Automations based on the actions they take on your website such as sending targeted emails when someone visits an important part of your website like a pricing page.
