What is Targeting?
Advertising on social media
Targeted advertising on social networks is an effective tool for attracting potential customers. It allows companies to showcase their products or services to an audience that is most interested in them.
How does social media advertising targeting work?
Targeted advertising works according to a fairly simple scheme:
1
In the chosen social network, we set up target audience parameters for impressions: gender, age, geolocation, marital status, etc.
2
We create an advertisement, filling it with textual, graphical, and other information.
3
We set the appropriate budget and launch the display of ads.
What is the difference between targeted and contextual advertising?
Goal
Targeted advertising is focused on a specific audience that meets predefined parameters. This can include demographic characteristics, interests, behavior, and other factors. The goal is to reach a certain group of people who may be interested in your product or service.
Contextual advertising (search engine advertising like Google Ads) is targeted at specific user queries. The ads are displayed based on keywords or phrases that the user types into the search bar. The goal is to provide advertising that is related to what the user is searching for at that moment.
Placement
Targeted advertising is most often displayed on social media platforms (like Facebook, Instagram). It can be embedded in the news feed, displayed on the side or top of the page, and so on.
Contextual advertising typically appears on the search engine results page (SERP) of search engines (like in Google results) or on websites participating in contextual advertising networks (like the Google Display Network).
Type of advertisement
Targeted advertising can include a variety of formats, such as images, videos, carousels, articles, and much more, depending on the platform.
Contextual advertising in search engines usually consists of text ads that are displayed at the top or side of the search results page.
