Search Center as a Pay Per Click Bid Management Software
A few weeks ago I mentioned that we were looking for a new bid management solutionfor our Pay Per Click channels. We finally found a solution that met all our business needs. We decided to go with Omniture’s Search Center for our Pay Per Click Bid Management solution. Search Center offers many benefits over our current bid management software, KeywordMax. Here are a few of the features that make Search Center worthwhile.

This can help you detect suspicious keyword activity early on and possible get refunds as a result.

The Rule Builder provides a library of best practice bidding strategies. You are also able to specify custom bidding rules.

Ability to perform sophisticated day parting. You can specify which bid rules are ran for individual time segments.
