For a client with one location in Waterbury, we’d usually start with “Presence” targeting on the 3 markets inside 15 miles (Bristol, Meriden and Hamden) and test the outer ring (New Britain, New Haven, West Hartford, Hartford, Danbury and Bridgeport and others) in a separate campaign or with a bid adjustment, so the farther cities can’t absorb the budget.

Suggested Google Ads setup for the Waterbury 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: Waterbury core

    Presence targeting on Waterbury, Bristol, Meriden and Hamden (4 cities, farthest 14 mi). Exact and phrase match on the client’s core services; budget sized to this area first.

  • Campaign 2: outer ring

    New Britain (16 mi), New Haven (18 mi), West Hartford (21 mi), Hartford (24 mi), Danbury (24 mi), Bridgeport (27 mi), Fairfield (31 mi) and Manchester (31 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 Waterbury and review the location report monthly for clicks from outside the area.
