For a client with one location in Indianapolis, we’d usually start with “Presence” targeting on the 3 markets inside 15 miles (Lawrence, Greenwood and Carmel) and test the outer ring (Fishers, Noblesville and Anderson) in a separate campaign or with a bid adjustment, so the farther cities can’t absorb the budget.

Suggested Google Ads setup for the Indianapolis 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: Indianapolis core

    Presence targeting on Indianapolis, Lawrence, Greenwood and Carmel (4 cities, farthest 15 mi). Exact and phrase match on the client’s core services; budget sized to this area first.

  • Campaign 2: outer ring

    Fishers (15 mi), Noblesville (21 mi) and Anderson (34 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 Indianapolis and review the location report monthly for clicks from outside the area.
