The bid you likely need to set for your ad to be shown anywhere on the first page of search results.

This estimate approximates what cost-per-click (CPC) bid is needed for your ad to show anywhere on the first page of search results when a search query exactly matches your keyword. Your ad can still appear if your bid does not meet this estimate, but it's less likely to appear on the first page of search results.

Tracking the First Page Bid Estimate metric is crucial as it provides advertisers with insights into the competitive landscape for specific keywords.

This metric helps advertisers understand the minimum bid required for their ad to have a higher chance of appearing on the first page of search results, allowing them to make informed decisions about adjusting bids to improve visibility and maximize the effectiveness of their ad placements.

Let's consider three different keywords and their respective First Page Bid Estimates:

Keyword A:
First Page Bid Estimate: $3.50

Keyword B:
First Page Bid Estimate: $5.00

Keyword C:
First Page Bid Estimate: $2.20
