White-Label Google Ads for Dayton, OH Agencies
Google Ads run behind your brand for clients in Dayton and 5 nearby markets.
Location targeting around Dayton, OH
We serve 5 other markets within 35 miles of Dayton, OH. A 35-mile radius around Dayton reaches all of them; the farthest is Hamilton, OH, 32 miles southwest. All 6 markets are in Ohio.
For a client with one location in Dayton, we’d usually start with “Presence” targeting on the 2 markets inside 15 miles (Kettering and Beavercreek) and test the outer ring (Middletown, Springfield and Hamilton) in a separate campaign or with a bid adjustment, so the farther cities can’t absorb the budget.

|---|---|---|---|
| Kettering, OH | 5 mi south | Core radius | Same state |
| Beavercreek, OH | 8 mi southeast | Core radius | Same state |
| Middletown, OH | 20 mi southwest | Outer ring | Same state |
| Springfield, OH | 23 mi northeast | Outer ring | Same state |

Suggested Google Ads setup for the Dayton area
Google Ads location targeting can be set by country, state, city, ZIP code or a radius around an address, and the location option can be set to people in the area only (“Presence”) instead of people who have shown interest in it. For local service clients, “Presence” plus a city list or radius built from real drive distances is usually the starting point.
Campaign 1: Dayton core
Presence targeting on Dayton, Kettering and Beavercreek (3 cities, farthest 8 mi). Exact and phrase match on the client’s core services; budget sized to this area first.
Campaign 2: outer ring
Middletown (20 mi), Springfield (23 mi) and Hamilton (32 mi). Separate budget so the farther cities can’t take spend from the core; pause any city where the client doesn’t take jobs.
Exclusions to set
Exclude locations beyond 35 miles of Dayton and review the location report monthly for clicks from outside the area.
