# Bid suggestion alerts

For manual CPC campaigns, Adalysis will flag opportunities for more effective bidding. If triggered, you'll see the alert on your **Audit alerts** screen.

### Alert example

Here's an example based on device bids. The same options apply to location, age, gender, parental, income, and audience bids. Click the alert for a list of recommendations.

You can apply the bid suggestions straight from the alert. Select the relevant rows and click **Apply bid adjustments**.

Under **Bid adjustment suggestions settings**, you can also experiment with approaches and settings by clicking **Recalculate suggested bid adjustments** after each update. Once you're happy with the results, **apply the bid adjustments**.

{% hint style="success" %}
To apply the same settings to all future alerts, click **Save customized.** To revert back to the default settings, click **Reset to default** at any time. Your new choices will be saved to your **Audit settings**.
{% endhint %}

### Customizing your bid suggestions

As with any alert, you can also [customize the settings](/tools/audit/how-to-customize-prebuilt-alerts.md) under **Audit** > **Audit settings** > **Prebuilt** > **Bid suggestions**.

1. **Select your goal:** increase clicks, increase conversions, target CPA, or target ROAS. If conversion tracking is enabled in your account, the default goal will be to increase conversions.
2. Set **maximum increase and decrease values** to avoid extreme bid adjustments.
3. Set **minimum thresholds** to ensure you only receive bid suggestions when there's enough data. Choose from impressions, clicks, or conversions, and a range of time frames.
4. To avoid frequent bid changes for the same segments, **set a minimum time frame** **between bid suggestions**. Adalysis records the date each bid adjustment was last changed (either within Adalysis itself or in Google Ads).
5. Define **how aggressive** you want your bid suggestions to be.
6. Choose whether to set **automatic bid changes** for the future.
7. **View other account settings**, where available, for comparison.

{% hint style="success" %}
Update your [global settings](/tools/audit/global-settings.md) with your preferences and apply them automatically to any accounts linked to Adalysis in the future.
{% endhint %}
