Suggested Meta Ads setup for the Seattle 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: Seattle + 15 mi
Covers Bellevue, Kirkland, Burien, Renton, Shoreline, Redmond, Sammamish, Des Moines, Lynnwood and Issaquah; about 1.3 million residents in the included cities. Broad targeting first, then interest or lookalike tests.
Ad set B: 35-mile radius
Adds Kent, Federal Way, Auburn, Tacoma, Everett, Lakewood and Marysville, bringing the included cities to about 2.1 million residents. Use it when ad set A’s frequency climbs.
Retargeting
Website visitors and engaged audiences from the whole 18-market area, so the smaller cities in the area still see follow-up ads.
