Select targeting and observation settings

30/11/2019

You can use targeting to specify audiences you’d like to reach or content you’d like your ads to appear on. In addition, you can use observations to get reports on certain criteria without restricting the reach of your ad group.

Before you begin

For a general overview of targeting and observations, see About targeting and observation settings.

Note: This article describes features in the new Google Ads experience. If you’re using the previous AdWords experience, refer to Targeting settings on the Display Network. If you're not sure, see Determine which Google Ads experience you're using.

Edit all targeting

To choose targeting and observations for existing ad groups, you can use the “Edit all targeting” page. This page lets you:

  • View all of your ad group’s targeting in one place
  • Add criteria for “Targeting” and “Additional observations” 
  • Switch criteria between “Targeting” and “Additional observations”

You can enter “Edit all targeting” from a targeting method’s page. Click the plus or pencil button and select an ad group, and you’ll see a button on the right that says Edit all targeting.
