Suggested Meta Ads setup for the Ithaca area
Meta location targeting supports countries, states, cities, ZIP codes and a radius around an address. Ads in Special Ad Categories (housing, employment, credit, and social issues or politics) have restricted targeting options, including a minimum 15-mile radius, so clients in those categories need their geography planned accordingly.
Ad set A: Ithaca + 15 mi
Covers Ithaca alone among served markets; about 31,000 residents in the included cities. Broad targeting first, then interest or lookalike tests.
Ad set B: 35-mile radius
Adds Cortland, Elmira and Auburn, bringing the included cities to about 105,000 residents. Use it when ad set A’s frequency climbs.
Retargeting
Website visitors and engaged audiences from the whole 4-market area, so the smaller cities in the area still see follow-up ads.
