2What You’ll Learn

• What is local?• How do they find you?• What are main channels for online

local advertising?• What are the ones related to

searching online? And what are the basics for setting them up?

3What is local?• Some one who is currently in a location

– Looking for services there. “Auto repair Golden Valley”– Not specifying a location but who may exhibit localized behavior

• Someone who isn’t in a location but wants something there. “best family neighborhoods in San Diego” “hotels near MOMA in NYC”

• Targeting a business to someone in a specific location who may not be actively looking for something, but who exhibits certain behavior, demographics, or interests.

If they can’t determine the location (example here of AOL), it’s shown as (not set)

7Or Big BrotherAnd they know exactly where I am because I have it integrated to my phone.

But of course I can switch my location manually and fool them. For example last year my default location was the discovery of something looking suspiciously like Atlantis.
