You can use a combination of custom audience and lookalike audiences with saved audiences to ensure targeting is spot on for your advertising objectives.Saved audiences tend to be used in conjunction with lookalike and custom audiences, so we'll run through the options on here.Locations: You can include or exclude people based on their location.

  • Everyone in this location
  • People who live in this location
  • People recently in this location
  • People travelling in this location
