Minimum bid for AdWords search?

I have a search term I want to advertise on and I noticed there are only two other advertising on it, does that mean I'll be able to get the term cheap? If so, what is the minimum bid I can make to get a position there? I'm hoping $0.01!

 

In a perfect world, yes 1 cent would get you there. BUT it depends on the quality score of your ad. Why don't you just try it out?

 

I guess I'll have to do that, thanks for the reply.

 

the less you pay, the less you get - if you are willing to pay 0.05$ per click - you ad would be at the bottom = no cliks. if you pay more, you are gona pay more, yet have more profit from sales or affiliate - whatever you are doing on the site.

 

Thanks for answering a question I didn't ask.

 

And that is completely not true. Seriously, do not give advice about something you clearly have NO clue about. You can of course be in position #1 and be paying LESS than the last position.

It's people like you that require me to check me and my clients accounts more.

 

"I advertise a niche product, and I'm the only advertiser on many of my keywords. I thought I could bid the minimum CPC of $0.01 on those keywords, and have my ad show. Yet, my minimum bid is much higher. What's up with that?"
