What is the purpose of using tags in Pardot?

The use of tags in Pardot serves the primary purpose of adding contextual information to leads and various assets, which enhances organization and improves the overall management of marketing activities. By tagging leads and assets, users can categorize and segment their data in meaningful ways. This level of organization allows teams to filter, search, and analyze leads based on the specific traits or characteristics represented by the tags.

For instance, tags can indicate the source of a lead, categorize them based on interests, or mark them as part of a specific campaign. This helps marketers to quickly identify and engage with relevant leads, tailor communications, and improve reporting on marketing effectiveness.

While there are other functionalities within Pardot, such as user group creation, automation of email sends, or tracking lead activity, these do not directly reflect the core purpose of tags, which is fundamentally about enhancing organization and context within the system.
