# Add Segment

This is where you give the name to your segment and choose from the two segment type:

1. **Static Segment**
2. **Live Segment**

## **Static Segment**

Static segments are typically **created to categorize individuals who share common traits**. These segments **help organizations target their marketing efforts** more effectively by **tailoring messages and campaigns to the specific interests and needs of each group**.
