I Dont Really Understand "Override Bids"?

Discussion in 'Digital Point Ads' started by Sean101, Aug 31, 2013.

  1. #1
    I am currently setting up my first ad campaign using the Digital Point advertising and I am not sure about the section that asks for what do I want to set the Override Bid. Do I have to set this? or can I leave it blank? If I set a override bid, will the impressions I get not just always cost this? meaning the original bid amount I set wont matter? Can someone please give me some info about the "Override Bid" Feature? Thanks!

    It just allows you to override your default bid on a per area/keyword basis is all.

    So if I set the override bid higher on one area it will give me more chance of getting my ad viewed in that area than the other I have choosen?

    If everything else was equal, yes... But people can on just certain areas, so some areas might not have anyone bidding for space, while others might have a bunch.

    Cool, thanks for letting me know. One more question, when it says I can charge a different amount for geo targeted impressions / clicks, does Digital Point know which countries the views and clicks the ads on my website are coming from?
