Intro

In terms of advertising cost, it is well known that acquiring new visitors is more expensive than retargeting to visitors who have already engaged with a website. This drives site owners to create site-wide retargeting campaigns, inviting visitors to return to the website. While this tactic outperforms most acquisition campaigns, it still spends a lot of resources on unengaged users that have very low to non-existent purchase intent.
