The geo parameter with Google templates can be used in a few different ways:
  1. Target using the full location name (city,region,country) as provided in Google CSV found here:

        "query": "laptop",
        "geo": "London,England,United Kingdom"
    }
    
  2. Target using the state name (state,country). Compatible with the United States, Australia, India, and other nations with federated states:
    {
        "target": "google_search",
        "query": "laptop",
        "geo": "Texas,United States"
    }

    {
        "target": "google_search",
        "query": "laptop",
        "geo": "United Kingdom"
    }

    {
        "target": "google_search",
        "query": "laptop",
        "geo": "GB"
    }
    
  5. Target using coordinates and radius
    {
        "target": "google_search",
        "query": "laptop",
        "geo": "lat: 32.4827, lng: -22.9384, rad: 5000"
    }
