Suggested Meta Ads setup in West Virginia
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.
City-only audiences
Charleston (~50,000), Huntington (~49,000) and Parkersburg (~31,000) are large enough to start with city targeting alone.
Radius audiences
For the 20 smaller markets, use a radius that pulls in nearby served cities, e.g. Charleston → South Charleston (4 mi), Huntington → Ashland (11 mi) and Parkersburg → Vienna (4 mi).
Statewide retargeting
One retargeting audience across all 20 West Virginia markets keeps follow-up ads running even where prospecting audiences are small.
