# Bid suggestions for product groups

Alert name: Product group bid suggestions

For Shopping campaigns with manual CPC bidding, Adalysis will alert you to opportunities to optimize performance by changing your bids.

You'll see the alert on your **Audit alerts** screen. Click  it for detailed product group data and recommendations to increase or decrease bids.

Then, select all or some product groups and click **Apply bid suggestions**.

Under **Bid 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 bid suggestions**.

### Default settings&#x20;

To compute the best bids, Adalysis considers multiple signals for your product groups:

* search impression share
* search volume
* benchmark CPC

The default goal is to increase overall profits for your account. Go to **Audit** > **Audit settings** > **Prebuilt** > **Bid Suggestions** to change the goal and other criteria.

### **Customize your bid suggestion settings**

Here's how you can customize the calculations:
