Regional Targeted (Non US)

Hello

I have used Google for a while but last time I looked into overture their regional targeting was nowhere near googles. I know that Overture just made an announcement for the US but being in Ireland, they count that the same as the UK and the targeting was very poor for Europe. I would like to hear from some Europeans and their experience with regional targeting although any feedback would be appreciated.

Dont use overture then if its that bad, im going to try overture and i'll feedback my findings.

hmm, Ireland isnt in the UK, so its not targetted advertising, and i wouldnt waste your money. Its like buying millions of optin email addresses of free .com email providers to send them information about a London conference, the majority users would be in the US, its not saying that someone wouldnt fly over, but just isnt targetted.

p.s. Try selling baby food to someone who isnt a parent, lol, you wouldnt make much money.

The fun part was trying to convince the Overture rep that the Republic of Ireland wasn't in the UK. It didn't exactly give me a lot of confidence.


Google may have its issues but I am able to get a better conversion rate by tailoring my ads to the actual country they are being shown in.
