What is Bid Adjustment? – Definition

With bid adjustment, you have more control over your campaign budget and/or ad group. You can set a high or low bid for:

  • devices – tablets, computers, mobiles,
  • geographic locations – countries, cities, provinces, regions, and even geo codes,
  • ad schedule,
  • the most popular content on YouTube and Display Network,
  • targeting methods (topics, placements, etc.),
  • remarketing lists,
  • demographics – gender, age, income,
  • call adjustments – including call-only ads and call extensions.
