White-Label Google Ads for Lexington, KY Agencies
Google Ads run behind your brand for clients in Lexington and 4 nearby markets.
Location targeting around Lexington, KY
We serve 4 other markets within 35 miles of Lexington, KY. A 30-mile radius around Lexington reaches all of them; the farthest is Frankfort, KY, 26 miles northwest. All 5 markets are in Kentucky.
For a client with one location in Lexington, we’d usually start with “Presence” targeting on the 1 market inside 15 miles (Nicholasville) and test the outer ring (Georgetown, Richmond and Frankfort) in a separate campaign or with a bid adjustment, so the farther cities can’t absorb the budget.

| Georgetown, KY | 16 mi north | Outer ring | Same state |
| Richmond, KY | 19 mi southeast | Outer ring | Same state |

Suggested Google Ads setup for the Lexington 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: Lexington core
Presence targeting on Lexington and Nicholasville (2 cities, farthest 9 mi). Exact and phrase match on the client’s core services; budget sized to this area first.
Campaign 2: outer ring
Georgetown (16 mi), Richmond (19 mi) and Frankfort (26 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 30 miles of Lexington and review the location report monthly for clicks from outside the area.
