Peculiarities of setting up contextual advertising in Estonia

Like for any country, before setting up contextual advertising in Estonia, you need to familiarize yourself with the cultural and business features that should be considered for doing business in this country.

Language targeting

A significant Russian-speaking minority lives in Estonia, whose share in the total population of the country is 24%. In addition, due to its favorable geographical location and access to the Baltic Sea, many trade routes cross in Estonia, cruise ships and ferries with tourists from neighboring Sweden, Finland and other Scandinavian countries regularly arrive.

When setting up Google Ads for Estonia, you should take this fact into account. If among your clients there are people who speak Russian or one of the Scandinavian languages, it is important to include them in the scope of your advertising campaign.

Attention! For a contextual advertising specialist, setting up an advertising account in two languages is equivalent to running two separate campaigns. This is due to the fact that for each language you need to collect your own keywords, write ad texts, make a list of negative keywords and select your target audience. This fact affects the cost of services, which will be much more expensive in multilingual projects.

Location targeting

A third of the total population of Estonia lives in the capital, Tallinn. 434 thousand people live in this city. In addition, every day, a large proportion of people from the surrounding suburbs and villages come to the offices and business centers of the Estonian capital for work and business.

Thus, when targeting by location, the main focus in most cases will need to be on Tallinn and the nearest radius around. At the same time, take into account the pendulum migration during the day, when a person, being in the capital of the country, can look for a hairdresser or clinic, which is located in the suburbs 20-40 kilometers away.

Local ad campaigns

In the arsenal of Google AdWords advertising tools, local advertising occupies a special place. And for Estonia it is especially relevant. Since the country is quite compact, the business format “at home” is very popular here.

If locals look for a beauty salon or laundry on the map, then hotels, cafes, restaurants and museums will be especially in demand for numerous tourists visiting this country every year.

By setting up local contextual advertising, you can show your ads on Google Maps or just on the search results page if the user is in the nearest radius from your outlet.
