Minimum CPC Rules
- Attempting to apply a campaign-level CPC that falls below the minimum will result in Error 400.
- Attempting to apply a site-level bid that falls below the minimum will result in Error 400.
- During an auction, the system compares the site-level bid to the allowed minimum and uses the higher of the 2. This is the bid amount that will be used in auctions, and the value that will be charged for a click.
Example
Set the campaign-level
cpc
to0.1
:Bid for demo-site-1 =
0.1
(default)Apply a
cpc_modification
of0.5
to demo-site-1:Bid for demo-site-1 =
0.1 x 0.5 = 0.05
Adjust the campaign-level
cpc
to0.01
:Bid for demo-site-1 =
0.01 x 0.5 = 0.005
(below the allowed minimum)For demo-site-1 bidding, the system will use:
MAX(allowed_minimum, site_specific_bid)
=MAX(0.01, 0.005)
=0.01
This is the bid amount that will be used in auctions, and the value that will be charged for a click.
