Native ad targeting in social media platforms is based on user profiles, which may not be up to date, and does not indicate where users spend their time or post content. Because 74% of posts do not include words marketers listen for and 6% do not include any text at all, it is not enough for marketers to only monitor hashtags and keywords; the inclusion of location significantly improves the value of social data. With Geofeedia Ads, advertisers are able to build audiences that realize significantly higher conversion rates from their campaigns based on consumers’ explicit tagging of locations.
“Using Geofeedia Ads for a recent Twitter campaign helped us drive newsletter subscriptions and raise awareness about our non-profit organization,” said Kären Haley Executive Director, Indianapolis Cultural Trail, Inc. “By using location-based data, we could target the right people at the right time, resulting in 65% higher impressions and 31% more engagements than past campaigns with traditional targeting.”
“Geofeedia Ads enables marketers to target people who have attended certain events or visited specific stores, restaurants, hotels or cities with relevant ads,” R. J. Talyor, Vice President, Product Management at Geofeedia. “Once campaign goals are determined, the rest is easy with pre-populated segments in the Geofeedia platform or customized segments based on the exact locations that matter.”
