Hence, it is not an easy job for each and every business or for that matter the website of those businesses in concern feature in the top search engine results. It requires a proper knowledge of the same as well as expertise on the different techniques, which help one achieving and maintaining top ranks in the search results of the different search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo etc. And the SEO experts are surely blessed with the same.

Given the amount of difficulty involved in pinpointing audiences from the particular districts with the help of municipality or ZIP code as well as the fact that the boundaries of the district change in almost every 10 years, such a capability needs to be welcomed, particularly as all the members of the House are ready for re-election, following the redistricting, which took place post census operations of the year 2010. Such a feature is created by Google in partnership with Azavea, who provided them with the data to search the different Congressional districts.
As per the blog post, which shows the comment of Charles Scrase, one of the members of the politics and elections team of Google, the company has dedicated substantial resources so as to court political campaigns. To quote him, “We’ve built a sizeable team that is working around the clock to help all candidates get the most from their online advertising efforts.”
Though it’s been long that AdWords has become one of the mainstays in the different state-wide as well as national campaigns, this newly included feature is expected to allow Google play a much more important role in the different Congressional races.
Summary: One of the recent changes in the field of search engine optimisation, Google has added a new feature to the AdWords, which allows people to target their individual campaigns through Congressional district.
