Mengapa Targeting Penting?

Targeting yang tepat adalah kunci sukses Meta Ads. Dengan 3.8 miliar users, Facebook memiliki data yang sangat detail tentang user behavior, interests, dan demographics. Gunakan data ini untuk reach exact audience yang Anda inginkan.

Core Audience Targeting

1. Demographics

• Competitor targeting: Target audience competitor
• Behavioral interests: Berdasarkan online behavior

Custom Audiences

Custom audiences adalah targeting berdasarkan data yang Anda miliki:

• Website visitors: Via Facebook Pixel tracking
• Customer list: Upload email/phone database
• App users: Target users yang sudah install app
• Video viewers: Target yang watch video ads
• Page engagers: Target yang interact dengan page

Lookalike Audiences

Lookalike audiences adalah cara Facebook find people yang similar dengan best customers Anda:

• 1% Lookalike: Most similar, smaller audience
• 2-5% Lookalike: Balance antara similarity dan reach
• 6-10% Lookalike: Broader reach, less similar
• Multiple source audiences: Combine different customer segments
• Value-based lookalikes: Based on customer lifetime value

Advanced Targeting Strategies

• Exclusion targeting: Exclude irrelevant audiences
• Retargeting funnels: Different ads untuk different funnel stages
• Geographic targeting: Location-based campaigns
• Device targeting: Mobile vs desktop optimization
