The Great Marketing Technique :

Imagine you went to a bookshop & picked up a book which seemed interesting to you, but for some reason, you didn't buy the book & came out of the shop. After coming out of the shop while returning home, you see big advertisements for the same book on every building's & bill board's giving out various discounts for the book. Would you not think again about buying the book.

The same Marketing Strategy is also used Online, whenever you visit any particular website & see a product of your choice, but you don't buy the product. Don't you see the same products while browsing your social media platforms like Facebook, Google, & other Several Website's, which show you the same product so that you change your mind & complete your purchase just like the above example of the book.

So Do You Think, Google & Facebook provoke's you to buy your left-out products?
YES! Indeed, As we know the maximum of the website's we visit, earns money through the variety of ads displayed on their site while, the most trusted & used AdNetwork that is Google Adsense uses the cookies stored by the website's we have already visited in order to show us the same product again & again until we buy the product.

The Scenario is Same with Facebook also, whenever we visit any website, they have' like, share & comment' options of Facebook, most of them also include's 'login by facebook', which stores all our temporary information in the cookies & reflects the same products when we are using our Facebook & even Instagram, thereby showing us the same products again until we buy it.
So in this way all these big giants collect every single data of your's & they even share your data with each other creating a Win-Win situation for everyone.
