BidLab & Search Laboratory’s Innovation in PPC

Our submission related to our development of BidLab, our in-house proprietary bid management software. BidLab is used by our maths graduate PPC account managers and helps them to manage PPC accounts more effectively. BidLab helps us set bid prices across campaigns with tens of thousands of keyword variations, based on the statistical probability of that keyword converting – even if only limited data exists. Setting bid prices at keyword level means we can optimise PPC campaigns daily (in line with slight seasonal changes) and make the budget stretch as far as possible. The development of BidLab has taken place over 6 years and now includes additional tools that can check your advert copy effectiveness, test if your landing page URL’s are working and a tool which can check to see if your products are in stock before displaying a PPC advert so as not to waste your budget by paying for unnecessary clicks.

The award ceremony will take place at the Park Lane Hilton, London on 23rd February 2012 – Good Luck Search Labs!
