You can effectively advertise to only the people most likely to be interested in your product and act on your offer. Don't waste your advertising dollars trying to reach everyone.
In order to have targeted traffic you need to know the answer to the question -- Who is my audience and what might they be looking for? Once you know the answers to these questions, then form a plan on the best ways to target this group.
