What are the advantages of our Bid Management

Bid Management Console
How
do we do this?
We continuously
update your bidding for every keyword in each engine, as often
as the search engine allows. Overture, for example, allows up to once
per hour.
Our service
functions as a "central console"
for all your PPC accounts.
Our software
eliminates bid gaps, ensuring that your bid
creates a better ROI through increased traffic on advertising dollars
spent.
One feature
we offer is the ability to maintain a specific rank
for each keyword, no matter what the bid. This saves you from checking
in and manually maintaining it yourself.
We also provide
the option for a fall back rank for each
keyword, should the one you desire be outside your budget.
For non-Overture
accounts, we provide an Auto Bidding feature
that allows you to pay just one penny above the listing below you.
We enable
you to set two different sets of rules -
one for high sales times, and another for low sales times. This feature
allows you to capitalize on your advertising budget without wasting money.
In Overture
accounts, we hide your true maximum bid -
eliminating forced overbidding and giving you an advantage over your competitors.
PPC search
engines are designed to offer you the maximum amount of exposure you are
willing to pay for. While Overture created their "Auto Bid"
as a client solution to their business model, we created our solution
to ensure a more fair marketplace in the PPC game.
