Suggested Meta Ads setup for the Sarasota 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: Sarasota + 15 mi
Covers Sarasota alone among served markets; about 55,000 residents in the included cities. Broad targeting first, then interest or lookalike tests.
Ad set B: 35-mile radius
Adds North Port and St. Petersburg, bringing the included cities to about 375,000 residents. Use it when ad set A’s frequency climbs.
Retargeting
Website visitors and engaged audiences from the whole 3-market area, so the smaller cities in the area still see follow-up ads.
