Bidding strategy

(1)About Manual  bidding: about Manual CPC bidding:

With Manual CPC bidding, you can fine-tune your maximum CPC bids to help control the cost and volume of clicks on your ads. Manual CPC bidding could be a good choice for you if your campaign fits this description:

• You'd like to control maximum CPC bids for individual ad groups, keywords, or placements.
• You're mainly interested in increasing website traffic, not necessarily brand awareness.
• You don't need to reach a target budget every month. (If you do need to reach a target budget, Maximize Clicks may be a better choice.)
• Your campaign targets the Search Network, the Display Network, or both.

If you're not sure which keywords or placements are most profitable, or if you don't have time to devote to managing manual bids, Maximize Clicks is probably a better fit for you.

Example

Although your website sells a wide range of art supplies, you're most interested in selling paint brushes. With Manual CPC bidding, even if your ad group has 15 keywords, you can choose to set a higher bid for only the keyword "paint brushes," which will apply whenever that keyword triggers your ad.

(2)About automated bidding:

Automated bidding takes the heavy lifting and guesswork out of setting bids to meet your performance goals. Each type of automated bid strategy is designed to help you achieve a specific goal for your business. This article outlines the 6 different types of automated bid strategies and when to use them.

Before you begin

If you’d like to automate your bidding for a Shopping campaign, read About automated bidding for Shopping campaigns.

Example

Let’s say you want to maximize conversions across your campaigns but don’t have the time to set an individual max. CPC for each individual keyword. By adding those keywords to a portfolio Target CPA bid strategy and setting a CPA goal you want to hit, you allow AdWords to automatically optimize bids across keywords using advanced machine learning to get you more conversions within your performance target.

Types of automated bid strategies:

Goal	Bid strategy	Range
Increase site visits. Increase clicks on low-traffic terms while keeping within a certain spend.	Maximize Clicks automatically sets your bids to help get as many clicks as possible within your budget.  Maximize Clicks is available as either a standard strategy in a single campaign or portfolio bid strategy across multiple campaigns, ad groups and keywords.

Get more conversions with your target CPA.	Target CPA automatically sets Search or Display bids to help get as many conversions as possible at the target cost-per-acquisition (CPA) you set.

Target CPA bidding is available as either a standard strategy in a single campaign or portfolio bid strategy across multiple campaigns and ad groups. Target CPA bidding was previously referred to as “Conversion Optimizer.” Learn more about Target CPA.	Campaigns, ad groups
