    I am newbie in PPC Market. I created 1st Campaign and min bid is 0.1$. After a few days, I created 2nd Campaign. It's cost 0.05$. And another few days, I created 3rd,4th,5th Campaign. These can't bid lower than 0.1$.

    I am very confuse... How to lower min bid cost.???

    Hate to say it, but you need to do some reading on how bidding works.


    The idea is to bid high at first (way higher than $.01) to get a high CTR and a good QS. Then as you get more clicks and keep your QS your bids will slowly lower and you'll be getting conversions and still tons of clicks.

    less than $0.1 .....uhm

    I think because it will easy control revenue

    If follow you bid lower $0.1 you can bid $0.01 -$0.09

    If difficult to know lowest revenue in next month

    And for everybody can make more money

    Just be careful not to bid too high in the beginning though!!
    Its trying to strike the right balance to get decent QS without breaking the bank!
