Embed custom code snippets to the head or body of your site's pages to verify site ownership, monitor your site's traffic, track user activity, and measure the success of your campaigns.
When adding the custom code, you can choose to include it on all your site's pages or specific pages only. Whichever you choose, these snippets are always invisible to your site visitors.
Important:
- Wix does not provide support for technical issues with third-party code snippets. If you have an issue with your code snippet, please contact the provider directly.
- Tracking scripts such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook & TikTok pixels do not work through custom code. You can connect these to your site with marketing integrations.

Working with third-party code
When you get a code snippet from a third party, they should give you instructions about where to place the code (head or body) and how to use it. The placement of your code is crucial for it to load and execute properly.
Wix does not provide support for any technical problems you may have with third-party code snippets. If you have a problem with a code snippet from a third party, you should contact the provider directly for help.
