Paid Media & Performance in Tecate

Tecate is a city of 81,059 in Baja California. It's 37 km from Tijuana, so many people searching here also compare against businesses there.

Of Tecate's 24,098 households, 73.3% have a home internet connection. Only 52.5% have a computer, so in many connected homes people search from a phone. In paid advertising, audience size sets the budget. We estimate about 59,000 people live in connected households in Tecate. It's a compact market: you can advertise across the whole town without wasting budget, and add nearby towns if you sell there too.

Frequently asked questions

How many people can I reach with ads in Tecate?

We estimate about 59,000 people live in households with internet in Tecate: 73.3% of 24,098 households, per INEGI's 2020 census. It's an estimate, since not everyone uses Google or Facebook every day. Use it to size a budget, not as a promise of reach.

Should I advertise only in Tecate or include nearby towns?

It depends on whether you serve them. The closest on our list are Villa del Campo (13 km, 33,360 residents), Tijuana (37 km, 1,810,645 residents) and Playas de Rosarito (46 km, 100,660 residents). Google and Meta both let you pick cities or a radius around your business, so you can include them without paying for areas where you don't sell.

Google Ads or Facebook and Instagram ads for a business in Tecate?

It depends on how people look for you. If they already search for your service, like a plumber or a dentist, Google Ads puts you in front of that search. If you sell something people want once they see it, Facebook and Instagram usually work better. In Tecate, 52.5% of households have a computer, so either way the ad should lead to WhatsApp or a call from a phone.

How much should I spend on digital ads in Tecate?

Google Ads has no minimum spend: you set a daily budget and can pause it whenever you like. What's worth spending depends on your audience in Tecate and how many new customers you can handle each month. We look at your numbers before proposing an amount. We don't quote a budget blind.
