A SharePoint Audience is dynamically populated group of Users that are defined based on a set of ‘rules’ that define who is a member of that Audience. Audiences are only available in SharePoint Standard and above or MOSS. The main role of the Audience is to allow content targeting in SharePoint sites.
Go to the list or library settings and click the Audience targeting settings link. Check the box Enable audience targeting and click OK. To target specific audiences, users will simply edit an item and enter the name of the audience in the Target Audiences box.
How to target content to specific audiences in SharePoint?
Any item in a SharePoint list or library can be targeted to specific audiences. To do this, you use the Content Query Web Part. Other types of Web Part and their content also can be targeted to audiences. In addition, you can target site navigation links to audiences.
Are there any changes to SharePoint audience configuration?
There are also no announced changes to how Audiences work so documentation for SharePoint 2013 Audience configuration and targeting will still apply. In most cases, the 2010 documentation will as well. Thanks for contributing an answer to SharePoint Stack Exchange!
