Hey, marketers!
The latest update brings a significant improvement to the targeting capabilities of Pmax campaigns, which can be found under the “Location options” in campaign settings.
Advertisers now have the opportunity to employ a more refined approach to location targeting. They have the choice to target users based on their physical “Presence” or a combination of “Presence or interest.”

Here are some insights…
This update introduces two options:
Targeting based on Presence or Interest
Targeting solely based on Presence
This development marks a notable advancement for Pmax campaigns. Previously, such specific location targeting options were not available for Pmax, although they were accessible for various other campaign types.
For advertisers plagued by irrelevant clicks or leads, this update offers a significant advantage. It allows for the exclusion of specific locations from their targeting criteria, providing a way to refine and optimize campaign performance.
Google’s initiative to roll out these feature updates underscores its commitment to enhancing transparency and providing more robust control at both – the account and campaign levels, especially within Performance Max campaigns.
Advertisers are advised to pay close attention when selecting their targeting options to ensure they don’t inadvertently exclude potential valuable targets. This new level of control is a critical step towards achieving more efficient and effective advertising outcomes.
