Suggested Google Ads setup for the New York City 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: New York City core
Presence targeting on New York City, Jersey City, Union City, West New York, North Bergen, Bayonne, Newark, East Orange, Elizabeth, Passaic, Hackensack and Clifton (12 cities, farthest 13 mi). Exact and phrase match on the client’s core services; budget sized to this area first.
Campaign 2: outer ring
Yonkers (16 mi), Mount Vernon (16 mi), Paramus (16 mi), Paterson (16 mi), North Hempstead (17 mi), New Rochelle (18 mi), Woodbridge (18 mi), Perth Amboy (20 mi), Hempstead (20 mi), Plainfield (22 mi), Edison (25 mi), White Plains (25 mi), Sayreville (26 mi), Oyster Bay (27 mi), New Brunswick (28 mi), Greenwich (29 mi), Huntington (32 mi) and Stamford (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.
