In this post I\u2019ll show how to quickly and efficiently set up a new pixel for Quora Ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Quora Ads pixel uses the same mechanism as other standard pixels<\/a>, so its setup is pretty simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creating a Quora Ads Pixel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Creating your pixel can be done only after setting up an active Quora Ads account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. In your account, navigate to ‘Pixels & events<\/a>‘.<\/li>
  2. Click on ‘Setup Pixel’<\/li>
  3. You can then select how you want to install the pixel, manually or via Google Tag Manager<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Manually installing the Quora Ads Pixel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Step one: Base code<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    After selecting the Manual installation option, you will see your pixel’s code snippet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To properly install Quora Ads Pixel, add the snippet on all pages of your website, preferably as high up as possible on the <head> tag. Adding the pixel to the <body> tag will also work, but might result in discrepancies in tracking, as some users might leave the page before<\/strong> the pixel snippet has fully loaded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Quora’s base pixel event, marked as ViewContent, is the equivalent of Google and Facebook’s Pageview event.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    The Advanced Match option can be used if your site requires a log in and users can be identified based on their email. This can lead to better pixel matching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Image Pixel option at the bottom of the screen if for sites that can’t run Javascript, and is generally not recommended to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Step two: Additional events & Conversions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    After adding the base pixel, you can optionally add additional events to track user interactions and conversions on your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    As with similar platforms, to fire these events, you only need to trigger the event code on the user’s action (assuming the base code has been loaded on the page).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    For example, to track a Purchase event, you need to fire:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    qp('track', 'Purchase')<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    The available events for Quora Ads are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    1. Generic<\/li>
    2. Purchase<\/li>
    3. Generate Lead<\/li>
    4. Complete Registration<\/li>
    5. Add Payment Info<\/li>
    6. Add To Cart<\/li>
    7. Add To Wishlist<\/li>
    8. Initiate Checkout<\/li>
    9. Search<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      The events naming convention removes whitespaces, so Add Payment Info<\/em> will be tracked as AddPaymentInfo.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
      qp('track', 'AddToWishlist')<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
      Custom events are not supported at this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
      Installing the Quora Ads Pixel using Google Tag Manager<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      Similar to other major platforms, Quora Ads has a built-in tag in Google Tag Manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
      First, select the the ‘Install with a partner’ option and then copy the Pixel ID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. Go to your GTM account and open the relevant container<\/li>
      2. Click \u201cAdd a new tag\u201d<\/li>
      3. Name the tag something memorable, e.g. Quora Ads Pixel Page View<\/li>
      4. Under Tag Configuration select \u201cQuora Pixel\u201d<\/li>
      5. Paste the Quora Pixel ID you copied<\/li>
      6. Under ‘Event Name’, verify that ‘PageView’ is selected<\/li>
      7. Under Triggering, choose a new trigger. The default trigger is \u201cAll Pages\u201d, which will load the FB tag on all website pages\"\"<\/li>
      8. Click Save<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        The final tag should look like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Be sure to publish the changes in your GTM container by clicking Submit and then Publish<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
        You can also implement other user events with this tag, such as Purchases or Add To Cart, by selecting the relevant event type in the dropdown. Be sure to add a trigger that captures that specific user action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        The available events for Quora Ads are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        1. Page View (equivalent to ViewContent on the manual installation)<\/li>
        2. Generic<\/li>
        3. Purchase<\/li>
        4. Generate Lead<\/li>
        5. Complete Registration<\/li>
        6. Add Payment Info<\/li>
        7. Add To Cart<\/li>
        8. Add To Wishlist<\/li>
