What is Retargeting / Remarketing?

Remarketing lets you show ads to users who've previously visited your website as they browse the web. Your ad will be shown to people on other websites AFTER they have been to yours but not purchased!

Remarketing is a powerful way to stay engaged with your target audience. Presenting them with highly relevant ads and offers across the web -- and making sure your brand is top of mind when they’re ready to buy.

But can I suggest you take a look at this simple Google video which explains the principles very well. I know they are dealing with the specifics of Google Adwords, but the principles are identical across all advertising platforms.
