Overture question

[yuvalus]

Does anyone get lower then 10cents/click On overture?
Because I saw the minimum is 10 cents but I saw some ads in 5 cents per click (search "viagra" for example)

Very strange isn't it?

I believe they set the rate at minimum .10/click. You will actually pay less if there is nobody that has bid a higher price for that term. For example, if the current bid on a term say "sex" is $1.00 and I have a maximum bid of $1.00 for "sex". You then come in with a bid of $1.50 for this term. You will actually only pay $1.01 until someone comes in with a higher bid. So, if I decide to increase my bid to $1.25, you will then get bumped to $1.26 and so forth until your maximum bid is reached. If I decide to max out at $2.00 and you max at $1.50, I will pay $1.51 until another bidder comes in at a higher bid. What a deal...!
Hope this helps.

The reason is that the guy who have ads in 5 cents submitted his site when the minimum bid of overture is still 0.05. Overture will never raise his bid to the new minium bid, 10 cents.

They have granfathered bid amounts, from the times when the min. bid was 5 cents. They cannot raise it to 6 cents or anywhere until 10c because it will become automatically 10c.
