@selfpreservation what about keywords?  
by (610 points)
@bridge79 Sometimes the negative keywords are more important. Just think what you would search for and look at the ads that come up. For example if you search real estate sales you might get estate sales so you may want the negative keyword phrase “estate sales” to prevent paying for clicks that don’t pertain.

@bridge79 With radius targeting, you can layer radiuses on top of one another and adjust bids by the size of the circle. For example, you can bid more for searches that are made within half a mile of your business than you would for customers that are 3 miles away. Putting a radius target over the event allows you to tap into this dense area and draw event-goers to your business once the show is over. Another option is local campaign link with your GMB account

Assuming you have high competition, (besides using radius targeting) go for long-tail: "Places for rent near me" or "real estate agencies near me" "Appartmens for sale in xxxx street" . Check the CPC for similar queries (including the area, block, street name, etc. If cpcs are affordable target smaller phrases too (2-3 word phrases).
