What is Geo-Targeting:

In geo-targeting, we define the user based on his geographical location.   Geo-targeting refers to showing our ads/advertising to customer based on their geographical locations.
 

 

How can We  Define audience Geo-Graphic Locations: 

For this, our audience fills out the forms on social websites, they give their details on Facebook Instagram, and Linkedin in the personal details section the customer's GPS location, his IP address or wifi, and the address or pin code given by him, etc. are used to get information about him.
 

The Current Scenario of Geo-Targeting:

Well, Geo-Targeting has already made a significant impact in the field of digital marketing. These businesses are working to provide services by promoting their advertisements based on their geographical location and providing them with relevant content. Everyone from small street corner businesses to international industries is working to reach the right audience at the right place at the right time.

Why Geo-Targeting is Important:

1. Location targeting is a big factor in the mobile search market. If someone searches from mobile, then more or less local result is shown and in that too, almost 60% conversion of local search is seen. That's why mobile search has already captured the market.
2. By targeting geographically we can enhance user experience and more traffic on our website to enhance business.
3. We can hide our ads from the competitors. By excluding our competitor's stores, and offices by selecting a correct location from our ads campaign. This technique will help you to save your marketing budget for your loyal customers.

How does Geo-targeting Work: 

Google Geo-Targeting allows users to search audiences by specific locations, areas, cities, states, and countries. They can search only for that particular area or location where they want to show their ads. If you want to show ads to users related to your search area then it is fine if you are not interested in other users who are not interested in that area, the impression and clicks generated by showing your ads are wasted and this is any type of activity. There is no profit and even money is deducted from our marketing budget for every click. Therefore, it is important to keep in mind that the range or location to be shown to a particular customer is correctly selected.
Also, we can use Google Trends to search trending keywords that have potential for future conversions. This tool can guide you to the best keyword in your country, state, city, or area.
