Can I Change the Bids of My Targets Manually?
Want to quickly respond to the performance of one or more targets? You can flexibly adjust your target bids directly from the Analytics area—either one at a time or in bulk for several selected targets.
Answer
Yes, you can manually change the bids of your targets at any time. In the Targets view, you have two options:
- To adjust bids for multiple targets at once, select all desired targets and use the Edit Bid function in the action bar.
- To change a single target, click on the pencil icon to open the Target Details. Here you can enter your preferred bid under Bid and save it. Your change will be scheduled for update and applied shortly after.
Accessing the Function
You will find these options in:
Main Menu > Analytics > Targets
Settings & Options
With Edit Bid (bulk edit), you can choose different types of bid adjustments:
- Increase bid by: Increase the bid by a specific amount or percentage.
- Decrease bid by: Lower the bid by a specific value or percentage.
- Set bid to: Enter a new, fixed bid amount.
- Raise bid above CPC by: Increase the bid above the current cost per click.
- Lower bid below CPC by: Decrease the bid below the current CPC.
- Match bid to CPC: Set the bid exactly to the measured CPC.
For each adjustment, enter either a numeric value (e.g. 25.00) and the corresponding unit (percent or total value), then confirm with Apply or cancel with Cancel.
In the Target Details area (individual adjustment), select the Status of the target and enter the desired bid value with two decimal places in the Bid field. Once confirmed, you will receive a brief success notification.
Limitations & Special Notes
- Your changes will be scheduled first and will take effect shortly after.
- The minimum bid value is 0, and all entries should always have two decimal places.
- When using CPC-based options, the current measured CPC will apply as the reference.
- You can select up to 1,500 targets at once per action. The maximum number is shown in the action bar.
