YouTube allows great flexibility to take control over who sees your ads. Starting
with demographic targeting, you can then layer on affinity audiences (to target people
interested in a certain topic), custom affinity audiences, and in-market audiences.
For example, if you’re selling golf lessons in a certain location it would make sense to
advertise in that region to the demographic of your typical customers who are already
interested in golf.
4. Set Up Video Remarketing
Remarketing is by far the most effective targeting method in my opinion, because you
have the security of knowing this audience has already expressed interest in your
company by visiting your website.
If you’re unfamiliar with remarketing, it’s a way to follow your website visitors with
advertisements in other places (think social networks, websites via the display network,
and YouTube of course). It might sound creepy, but it’s effective, and has likely even
worked on you before. For example, the time that new pair of shoes kept showing up on
your Facebook feed so you finally purchased them. Yup, that was remarketing!
