John: 00:00:10

In this video we're going to learn about the location

John: 00:00:14

targeting best practices.

John: 00:00:16

So in Google Ad, despite of targeting a certain location, you may get

John: 00:00:22

traffic from other locations too.

John: 00:00:24

Okay, so in this video we're going to learn how to reduce, how to stop that

John: 00:00:30

fraud traffic coming from other locations.

John: 00:00:33

So here each targeted location.

John: 00:00:36

But if you change it to matched locations, you can get all the traffic

John: 00:00:43

that coming from other locations.

John: 00:00:51

Hi guys.

John: 00:00:51

I'm Ruth from Solutions Eight, and in this video we're going to learn about

John: 00:00:56

the location targeting best practices.

John: 00:00:59

Okay?

John: 00:01:00

So in Google ad, despite of targeting a certain location, you may get

John: 00:01:06

traffic from other locations too.

John: 00:01:08

We're going to learn how to reduce, how to stop that fraud

John: 00:01:12

traffic coming from other location.

John: 00:01:15

in Google A, first of all, you can check if you are getting

John: 00:01:18

traffic from other locations or not by going to hear locations.

John: 00:01:25

you'll get all the targeted locations using inside campaigns.

John: 00:01:29

so here each targeted location.

John: 00:01:32

But if you change it to matched locations, you can get all the traffics

John: 00:01:38

that coming from other locations.

John: 00:01:41

Okay.

John: 00:01:41

So since we are using some savings and excluded the locations, all the

John: 00:01:46

locations, we are not getting any single traffic from other locations.

John: 00:01:51

So we will learn what are those setting and how to apply exclusions.

John: 00:01:56

Okay?

John: 00:01:57

Change your setting.

John: 00:01:58

You can go to your campaigns.

John: 00:02:01

Let's suppose this campaign in mass campaign.

John: 00:02:03

Then you can go to settings.

John: 00:02:05

Then you need to go here.

John: 00:02:09

Locations, okay?

John: 00:02:12

Then inside locations, go to your location.

John: 00:02:18

And by default it'll, you know, select this option.

John: 00:02:22

So we need to change it to this option.

John: 00:02:25

This option means it's search pages or interest in regularly in or who

John: 00:02:32

have sown interest in your targeted locations are eligible to see ads.

John: 00:02:38

So this option means whether those people.

John: 00:02:43

A not in your location.

John: 00:02:45

If they have sown interest in your targeted location, they can see your ads.

John: 00:02:53

So we are targeting United States.

John: 00:02:57

And in United States, lot of people have shown interest.

John: 00:03:02

Lot of people from several regions, several country have shown interest.

John: 00:03:07

So if I choose this option I will target, I will end off targeting all

John: 00:03:13

the locations despite of United States.

John: 00:03:16

Okay.

John: 00:03:17

So this is kind of very, you know very injurious situation I would say.

John: 00:03:23

So to reduce those traffic.

John: 00:03:27

To reduce those other locations, traffic, you need to select regions, people in

John: 00:03:33

or regularly in your targeted locations.

John: 00:03:36

Okay?

John: 00:03:37

It'll reduce almost all the traffic coming from other locations.

John: 00:03:42

But sometime uh, some you can even see some mass traffic inside that location.

John: 00:03:48

So to remove those, even you need to exploit other

John: 00:03:53

locations, other countries to.

John: 00:03:56

Target exclusions.

John: 00:03:58

Okay.

John: 00:03:58

to add those countries to exclusion, you need to prepare all the country's list.

John: 00:04:04

You can get all the countries list all the countries name by simply Googling, and

John: 00:04:10

you can save, you can add to a space sheet and here, remove your targeted location

John: 00:04:17

and you can copy all the locations.

John: 00:04:20

Then you can go to here in exclusions, go to Advance Advanced Search, and

John: 00:04:28

you can go to here, add locations in bulk and past all the locations.

John: 00:04:34

Okay?

John: 00:04:34

You can then search.

John: 00:04:36

This is not a glitch.
