Marketing & AdvertisingAdvertising & Listing Optimization / Analytics Gap4HighPerformance Marketer$ implied

Local businesses are wasting ad spend on irrelevant clicks from people outside their service area due to Google Ads' default location targeting setting.

Google Ads defaults to 'Presence or interest' which shows ads to users based on interest in a location, not physical presence, causing wasted spend; businesses must manually switch to 'Presence' but many are unaware of the setting.
