More About Bid Adjustments

 

With bid adjustments you can opt to increase or decrease your bids to meet your campaign objective. They are defined by a percentage and is an increase or decrease on your keyword bid with the range between +900% to -90%.

So, for instance if it is an increase of 20% on a bid of Rs.5 then the revised amount will be Rs. 6 and if it is a decrease of 40% on the same bid then the revised bid will be Rs. 3.

 

Here are the bid adjustment options available with Bing Ads.

 

Location Bid Adjustments 

With location bid adjustment you can increase the bids for regions that are profitable or decrease them for areas that though are your targeted location, but are not generating profitable results.

It is recommended that if you use the bid adjustment for a location then targeting people in your targeted locations will show your ads to only the location selected and not others (such as people searching for or viewing pages about your targeted locations)

Device Bid Adjustments

If your customer is viewing your ads more often on a certain device (desktop, mobile or tablet) then you might want to increase the bids there. This will ensure that anytime your targeting criteria is met, Bing Ads will adjust your bids to show on better positions in the preferred device.

For example, you are a bakery owner and get most of your orders from mobile device then increasing your bids there would improve the chances of displaying the ad to people searching on mobile.
