Hello and thank you for your answer and time You are right, I want to check my keywords rank (position) to automaticly adjust BID by using the API.
I understand that the keyword cost can be different by gender, location, .... But, how to test each possibilty ? Because, I think the only one 'offical tool' is AdPreview and you can not put all that possibilities to run some test ? So, Google can do whatever it wants and nobody can check where is going our money ?? ... ... I'm kidding... Maybe not :p When you say that not every end users gets the same ads, I not fully agree with you. With the good keyword and the good targeting (ex : Location + computers device Bid + 10 % for smartphone device), I assure you that every one will have your annonce ;) But, one more time, it is not working for every keywords. Our campaing are targeting for ours clients needs. So we know location, gender kind and device type we need to target. Also, we check frequently ours annonces to be sure they have and keep the best quality scores possible. Of course, a competitor can raised his cost on a specific device and be better than us ! That's the game. But, if a competitor wants to have a fight in my target area, it seems to be fair that I am the first to know and I can decide if I want to fight back or not ? However, at this moment, I will know it maybe one hour later... Can you imagine how many clics I will lose even if I have the money to directly put back my keyword in top positons by using Bid modifiers with the Api ?? About Bid modifier : As you certainly know, if you have a bid at 20€ on a keyword and your closest competitor (in second position) have put 10 €, Google will take you around 12€ by clic. But if you can check your position, you can also decrease your bid to be in the right position with the right price and just set a bid 10.10 € (1.90 € money saved by clic....) About the average positons at 0, I know that is because those keywords do not have impression yet. But, again, it seems to be fair that I could know if I will be in a good rank on the first impression (I do not talk about Shopping result of course) Thank you again, Regards -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and Google+: https://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.com/ https://plus.google.com/+GoogleAdsDevelopers/posts =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
