Google Ads in Tampa: FAQ

How big should a Google Ads radius be for dumpster rentals in Tampa?

Start around 25 miles. There are no listed markets within 10 miles of Tampa, 2 within 25 and 5 within 50, so a mid-size radius covers the nearby markets without paying for far-away clicks.

Should a Tampa campaign also target St. Petersburg?

St. Petersburg is 18 mi southwest of Tampa. Close enough to serve from one yard — put it in its own ad group so it doesn't absorb the Tampa budget.

Which keywords should a Tampa roll-off company start with?

Begin with "dumpster rental tampa", "roll off dumpster tampa fl", "20 yard dumpster tampa" and "construction dumpster tampa", then add the nearby market terms and container sizes once the core terms convert.
