Q&A: I use location targeting but I don’t live in the areas where I advertise. How can I see my ads?


Posted: September 17, 2008

If you are looking to see ads at a metro level, this is a very straightforward process.

Use the Ad Preview Tool to choose your location (country, metro, etc), keyword, language, and domain (Google.co.uk, Google.com, etc).

If you wish to see mobile ads, you can use the mobile ad preview tool located at the same page – just click the ‘trying to preview mobile ads’ link.

It does get more complex if you wish to see ads at specific coordinates. It can be easier to use Google Earth to first find coordinates before previewing the ads.
