Common Questions
Google Ads in Buffalo: FAQ
How big should a Google Ads radius be for dumpster rentals in Buffalo?
Start around 40 miles. There are no listed markets within 10 miles of Buffalo, 1 within 25 and 1 within 50, so a wide radius is needed to reach enough searchers.
Should a Buffalo campaign also target Niagara Falls?
Niagara Falls is 17 mi northwest of Buffalo. Close enough to serve from one yard — put it in its own ad group so it doesn't absorb the Buffalo budget.
Which keywords should a Buffalo roll-off company start with?
Begin with "dumpster rental buffalo", "roll off dumpster buffalo ny", "20 yard dumpster buffalo" and "construction dumpster buffalo", then add the nearby market terms and container sizes once the core terms convert.
