Bing Ads Keywords Performance



The Bing Ads Keywords report provides data on the performance of keywords in the Bing Ad account that has been connected to the domain's campaign in Rank Ranger.

The report includes a graph showing the results associated with the Key Metric you select (clicks, impressions, CTR, or spend) at the top of the report as well as a variety of keyword performance metrics displayed in tabular format.

The graph and tabular presentations of Bing ads data can be either displayed or hidden based on the user's preference, and like all Rank Ranger reports, the report can be added to client dashboards, marketing dashboards, or automated PDF reports that are sent by email.

Important! In order to view this report, you must authorize a connection to a Bing Ads account.
