Tune your targeting

Targeting determines who sees your ads and where they show up across Pinterest. Pinterest offers a wide range of targeting options to help you narrow in on the right people for your goals.

Your options

Expand your reach and find new customers using targeting options based on demographics, interests or on-platform behaviours. Or, use your existing customer list to find similar prospects, known as actalike audiences.

Reconnect with people who previously engaged with your content on or off Pinterest. If you have the Pinterest tag or the Conversions API, you can upload your own customer list or retarget visitors from your brand’s website.

Pro tips

Preset and forget

To keep things simple, use Pinterest’s default targeting instead of choosing your own. Our tools will recommend settings based on your goals and budget.
