“Ben provided operational and strategic support for Google Domains Search Engine Marketing (SEM) and YouTube/Display activations as part of the Firewood media team. Working with us for just about a year, Ben quickly became a trusted and impactful part of the team, providing proactive account level recommendations, clear reporting and driving a dramatic increase in our account performance (reducing CPAs by 50% over the first 6-9 months). Ben is quick to suggest optimizations, backing the suggestions with data and analysis, and can manage a large international Google Ads account independently. Given the opportunity, we'd have him back in a heartbeat.”

How do you use location targeting in PPC advertising?
Click Through Rate (CTR) by Location: Analyze the CTR for each location to see how engaging your ads are to users in different geographic areas. A higher CTR indicates that your ads are resonating well with the audience in that location. Bid Adjustments and Performance: Evaluate the impact of bid adjustments on location performance. Compare the performance metrics before and after adjusting bids to see if there's a noticeable improvement in ad performance in targeted locations. Heatmaps and Geographic Visualizations: Use heatmaps or geographic visualizations to visually represent performance data by location. This can help you identify trends, patterns, and areas of opportunity more intuitively

How do you use location targeting in PPC advertising?
By targeting specific locations, you ensure that your ads are reaching people who are more likely to be interested in your products or services because they are in or near your target market. Targeting specific locations helps you allocate your budget more efficiently by focusing on areas where your target audience is located, rather than wasting money on people who are unlikely to convert. Since you're targeting people who are more likely to convert, you can expect a higher return on investment (ROI) for your advertising spend.
