A sponsored ad in a specific area around your shop
A restaurant, salon or clinic serves people who can reach it, not the whole country. Yet the usual ad reaches the whole province, and the shop owner pays for people living an hour away. Here you drop your shop's pin and choose how many kilometres around it.
- A pin on the map by kilometre
- Or neighbourhoods by name
- In any country
The ad is created in your ad account and paid from it. The people estimate comes from Meta itself, so you know before spending whether the circle is too small for the ad to learn from.
Why a shop's ad loses
You choose "Cairo" because your shop is in Cairo, and the ad reaches twenty million people of whom only those living nearby will come. An AI that picks "all of Egypt" for a shop that does not ship has not understood your business — so here it starts from the shop's location.
How it works
Drop your shop's pin
On the map, from your current location, or type the neighbourhood's name.
Choose the radius
From one to eighty kilometres, seeing the circle and the estimate of people in it.
Choose who you want
Age and gender, or let the AI propose from your business.
Choose what happens after the tap
A WhatsApp or Messenger message to book, or a visit to your Page or store.
What it does
A circle on the map
A pin and a radius in kilometres, with several branches in one ad.
Neighbourhoods by name
"Nasr City", "Al Olaya" or "Jabriya" — wherever Meta knows them.
Upscale districts
For an expensive product or a premium service, ready circles around upscale districts in Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
Booking on WhatsApp
The ad opens a chat, and the bot answers and records the booking or order.
A shop ad here versus the usual ad
| The usual ad | ArabyBot | |
|---|---|---|
| Place | The whole city or province | A circle around the shop or chosen neighbourhoods |
| Branches | An ad per branch | A circle per branch in one ad |
| After the tap | A page, or a message that waits | The bot answers and books |
| Before spending | Audience size is hard to know | Meta's estimate of the circle in front of you |
Questions people actually ask
How do I make a sponsored ad in a specific area?
On the ad builder choose "Your shop in your area", drop the shop's pin on the map and choose the radius, or type neighbourhood names. You see Meta's people estimate before you approve.
What is the smallest possible circle?
One kilometre, but a very small circle may be too small for the ad to learn from. Meta's estimate in front of you tells you when to widen it.
Does it work in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf?
Yes, in any country: the circle around the shop works everywhere, and neighbourhoods by name wherever Meta knows them.
Who is this ad for?
For every business the customer comes to: restaurants, salons, clinics, gyms, nurseries, service centres and shops that do not ship.
