Mostly visitors on the Eastcoast

    Hi,

    I have this Adwords campaign, where I spend a few hundred bucks a day. I have set the Campaign to spread the spendings over the day and not to show the ads as fast as possible, until my budget is used up.
    I also track the visitors using G Analytics, which gives my a nice image of the US with dots form the places, where visitors are located. Most of my visitors come from the East Coast. It looks like Adwords doesn't really spread my ad spendings over the day, but shows a lot more ads to the East Coast visitors, which visit the site earlier in the day. I also see, that I don't get any visitors from Adwords from around 11pm to 0am.

    Is there anything I can do about this? Probably throw more money at this campaign? :)

    Kind regards, hans

    Are you just trying to get visitors from areas other than the east coast?:confused:

    i would like to have my visitors spread nicely over the whole US. At the moment there are way to few from the West Coast. As I understand the East Coast has a higher population than the Middle West, but there are far too few visitors from there. probably they are more interested in my product? I dont know at the moment :)

    I have lowered my big-prices and increased the daily maximum. probably this will force G to spread the ad impressions more over the day.

    Kind regards, Hans

    Convince more people to move west;)

    What would you care what part of the US visitors came from?

    Well... Probably Californians are more willing to buy my service. Who knows? :) To figure that out I need to spread my ads over as many people as possible.

    Kind regards, Hans

    You could set up multiple campaigns with different geo targeting settings to determine if one geographic location performs better than another.
