Are rising Google Ads CPCs making you sweat? It's not a good enough excuse to stick with manual bidding. In fact, that's counterproductive! In episode 67 of the Inside Google Ads podcast, host Jyll Saskin Gales explains why higher costs with Smart Bidding strategies like Maximize Conversions are actually a good thing, and contribute to better performance. She also addresses concerns about using Maximize Conversions in new accounts with no prior data and clarifies whether duplicate ad groups inflate your CPCs.

Plus, be sure to stay tuned until the end of the episode for a new Insider Challenge to solve!
