One of the questions I see quite a lot and is also asked quite a lot is related to Google Ads Minimum Audience Size. Basically, for Google Ads, Minimum Audience Size depends on GDN (Google’s advertising display network):

  • Google Display Network (GDN): 100 active users in the last 30 days.
  • Google Search Network: 1,000 active users in the last 30 days.
  • YouTube: 1,000 active users in the last 30 days.
