Meta traffic campaigns is harmful for your pixel if your main goal is to acheive purchases. But you'll ask, why is that? doesn't traffic campaigns are supposed to build broad top funnel audience for my pixel and while it is true, it also creates a problem for your meta pixel.
Meta's traffic campaigns are designed to send more visitors to your website and in order to do achieve this goal, it sends low purchase intent accounts to your website/shopify store which might never convert and this is BAD DATA for pixel.
Later when you run the meta's traffic campaign for long enough time period, then the BAD DATA begins to take over and your ads begin to target the unqualified low potential audience that causes your cost of purchase in the ad account to skyrocket!
Now, the big question is, WHAT TO DO? It's simple, only run meta purchase campaigns even to target MOFU & TOFU audiences so that your pixel only recieves high quality puurchase intent traffic. Also test multiple offers to lower the cost per opurchase as much as possible.
