Anyone familiar with how exactly this feature works?
Every couple of months i come back to RTX to run some pop campaigns, and within like a week i end up pricing myself out of domain keywords because i keep using the "increase to suggested bid" feature and the suggested bid seems to go up every day by like x2/x3 the cost of the previous bid, seemingly without any rhyme or reason. So i'll start with a domain keyword at $0.01, then the next day it will give me the exclamation mark next to the keyword warning me that my bid is under the suggested bid, so i click "increase to suggested bid" and it will increase my bid to like $0.0176. Not too bad, but next day this happens again, and this time it will increase it to like $0.0315. So on and so forth until 5 days later i'm bidding like $0.15 for a keyword that started at $0.01. So eventually i price myself out of profits on like every keyword, and the system is still like "hey, how about still bidding a little higher eh eh?"
I get that there are bidding wars with other users, but you'd
