What is ad tracking?

Ad tracking tells Google and Meta what happens after someone lands on your store: they looked at a product, added it to the cart, checked out and paid.

With that, Google Analytics shows where your visitors come from, and Google Ads and Meta can count the sales each ad brought. Each tool is its own add-on, and you need no developer.
