What is a Bidding Strategy?

A bidding strategy is used by advertisers to determine the amount they are willing to pay to place an ad or to receive a result, like a click or conversion.

It is used in online ad platforms like Meta Ads or Google Ads to bid for ad space. This strategy is combined with other key elements, such as budgets, objectives, and desired results.

Example of Bidding Strategy

A brand will place a higher bid to be at the top of the search results for a competitive keyword.
