# Create a Custom audience based on website visitors from a Meta Pixel (tracking pixel)

## Set up and profile a Custom Audience in Meta Business Manager to target website visitors via Meta Pixel, enhancing ad relevance and engagement.

Creating a Custom Audience based on website visitors using the Meta Pixel allows you to target individuals who have interacted with your site. Here's a concise guide to setting this up:

**Prerequisites:**

- **Meta Pixel Implementation:** Ensure the Meta Pixel is installed on your website or specific pages of interest, such as purchase confirmation or newsletter subscription pages. To verify its presence, use the [Meta Pixel Helper extension](https://chrome.google.com) for Google Chrome.
- **Sufficient Website Traffic:** A higher volume of website traffic will result in a more robust and effective Custom Audience.

### **Steps to Create a Custom Audience**
