Business targeting

What is targeting or targeting?

Targeting (targeting) is an Internet marketing parameter used to show an advertising campaign only to the target audience identified by certain specified criteria, such as gender, age, interests, income, geography and so on.

On the Internet, targeting is based on the use of advanced information technologies and opportunities for large-scale collection of information about the target audience (hereinafter - CA). For example, when promoting in social networks, personal data published by users in their profiles is used to provide more than 300 variants of ad targeting.

Search engines use information about the user's consumer interest, computer IP addresses, type of Internet access device, browser type, as well as behavioural data, including the history of search queries and visits to various sites, to filter impressions.

Varieties of targeting on the Internet

Depending on the goals and objectives of product promotion, targeting is applied according to different kinds of parameters.

1. Geo-targeting. Advertising displays strictly in specified regions. For example, a local business website does not need visitors from all over the world, but only locals - potential customers.

2. Time targeting. Advertising displays in strictly defined hours of the day. Used to save advertising budget in cases where it is known at what time potential customers visit the Internet.

3. Demographic targeting. It is used in cases when goods and services are intended for certain social strata of society - only women, young or adult people, level of education or income.

4. thematic targeting. Targeting audiences that share common interests but are consumers of a range of goods and services. These can be communities of fishermen and hunters, gardeners, cat lovers and so on.
