    Hi,

    I just designed a campaign with keywords where I was spot 1, 2 and 3 for about 30-70 Cent.... now suddenly the want me to increase my bid to 6.50$.

    How does google actually come to theses numbers, and why a jump like this?

    Can anyone shed some light on this??


    Thanks,
    C.

    Without you saying more I'd suggest you use the search function here for quality score, slap, relevancy, and landing page quality.

    Good luck.

    Remember, what changes have you made to campaign recently.

    Minor changes, that you make, greatly affect the campaign.

    I send them directly to my affiliate page..... so I use the cj affiliate code as the destination. I have only adjusted the bids so I am on a acceptable position.

    What would actually happen if no one, and I mean all the Big spending webmasters just do neverincrease their bids if google "orders" them.

    What would happen ?

    Have a successful 2008

    In addition to quality, landing page, ad relevance etc..may be all the players bidding for the keyword all of a sudden increased their prices to very high levels...
