Visitor Identification
Know who's behind your traffic β and decide what to do about it.
Overview
Visitor Identification lets you see which companies β and what types of roles β are visiting your site. You can use it purely for intelligence (Passive Mode) or to power personalization and experiments (Targeting Mode). You control when it observes and when it acts.
What It Unlocks for Performance Marketers
- Break down conversion rate by company size, industry, or role
- See whether enterprise traffic converts differently than SMB (e.g., enterprise converts 2Γ better)
- Identify high-value segments that aren't converting
- Validate whether paid traffic matches your ICP
- Prioritize outbound based on real engagement
- Personalize messaging by segment β when ready
It turns "traffic" into structured signal.
Two Ways to Use It
Passive Mode
Observe without changing content. No dynamic content, no A/B tests, no messaging swaps, no user-visible impact. You're building intelligence.
Best For
- Understanding who's actually visiting
- Diagnosing conversion gaps
- Segment-level funnel analysis
- Building confidence before personalizing
Targeting Mode
Turn identified segments into controlled personalization. Once enabled, identified attributes can power targeting rules. Targeting is optional β you decide when to use it.
You Can
- Show enterprise messaging to enterprise visitors
- Swap case studies by industry
- Adjust CTAs for decision-makers
- Run A/B tests by company size or role

Setup & Details
Open Settings
Navigate to app.tailorhq.ai/settings and go to "Visitor Identification".
Choose Where to Identify Visitors
You can enable visitor identification wherever the Tailor tag is installed with a single settings toggle.
Need more control? You can also specify individual URL patterns (e.g. https://yoursite.com/pricing or https://yoursite.com/blog/*) to limit identification to specific pages.
Set Traffic Coverage
Choose what percentage of matching traffic to identify (1β100%). Each identified visit consumes one credit.

What Happens After Activation
Identified data appears under Analytics β Identified Visitor Insights. You'll see breakdowns by:
Firmographics
Industry, company size, organizational type.
Role Signals
Probabilistic department and seniority signals.
Context
Geography and other traffic attributes.
From there you can compare conversion rate across segments, identify high-performing or underperforming audiences, validate targeting assumptions, and inform personalization strategy.

Why Separate Observation from Personalization?
- Measure before acting β validate segment opportunity first
- Reduce experimentation risk with data-backed targeting
- Stay aligned with consent boundaries
