The Leadfeeder tracking script is a lightweight JavaScript snippet you install on your website. It powers both Web Visitors and Web Insights, so you only need to install it once. To set it up, see Installing the Leadfeeder tracking script.
How the tracking script identifies companies
The tracking script captures each visitor's IP address, domain and location. Leadfeeder matches that data against our own IP-to-company databases to identify the visiting company in near real time.
For each company it identifies, Leadfeeder shows you company details and the contacts connected to that company, so you can reach out.
