Edit keywords

You can try improving your keywords by changing their match types, their bids, and more. For example, you could increase bids for keywords that are performing well and decrease your bids for keywords that aren't converting to sales. You can help increase your sales and lower your costs by adding, changing, or removing keywords, and by changing their match type, their bid, and more. For example, let's say your campaign has been running for a while and your performance data shows that some of your keywords are performing better than others.

It's important to remember that when you edit the keyword you're removing the original keyword and creating a new one. Also, the statistics your keyword has accumulated will be reset to zero.

This article shows you how to edit or remove keywords. You can also learn more About keywords and how to Add keywords.
